And this is the summernats cruiser:
After fitting a few different motors into enginebays they werent born in I can honestly say thats an awesome job, I appreciated the work and expense involved and I wish I was there at the summernats to see the reaction from spectators when they see the Hyundai XXXXXXXX cell.

Whoops,
Thought i logged on to the VW site.
Guess i'm mistaken.
Has it been Dyno'ed at 750,
Or is this just a "She should be good for" figure
"O.S.K"
We make it happen!
hey you should be burning the midnight oil working on you ragtop!Nice job though.
I will be there helping Hypo-VW clean and prepare the car before judging.
some people are like slinky's
they have no useful purpose
but they are fun to watch
when you push them down the stairs
750hp at the flywheel, but that was only at 5 pound boost, now she's 16 pound.
She'll be going on the dyno up there so I'll let you now the figures!
haha coool hyundai 🙂

Out of a hyundai thats scary. Lets hope it dont die like the commodore wagon did when the victory skid was done. Long way to tow a car for 2 minutes of fun.

Its an obsesion for engines and fuel.... 😏
Sorry..
Air Cooled Volkswagens are only allowed on this Forum, unless you want every smart Arse to pay out on you. 😉
Just messing with you, I cop shit every time I have something Ford on.
Richard (Herbie. D. U) and I are going up, also Aaron a another Melbourne Boy with a TURBO new Beetle is coming with us.
But we are going in my Land Cruiser, because my XR8 has to many Mods now not to get picked up by the Feds for something, and neither of as want to take our Beetles.
BAJA NOW FITTED WITH A FULL FLYING REBUILD
750hp makes for one fricken scary shopping trolley... :jesus

great engineering to convert a fwd car to rwd also apart from shoe horning in that V8.. 347? whats it out of? stroker/destroked? i assume its runing a 9 inch diff? what trannie?
i can see its wearin number plates! is that serious? its road registered? madness... how many people would doubletake at maccas??!!
im farkin impressed.... good effort.. the the twin barrel scoop looks the goods also...
Do you know when his mum wants the car back???
"O.S.K"
We make it happen!
HAhaha hope she dosent feel the diffrence when shes drives it. could end up in a mess down at the mall!!!

The engine is based on a 5lt windsor block, but has been stroked to 5.6, it has a 4 speed auto and yes a 9in diff. the car is not rego'd, but might wear some SR plates in the future.
I find revving the guts out of Your engine to produce smoke from tyres very juvenile.....

You may be right Lee, but there is a hell of a lot of Juveniles out there who find it very entertaining.
Cheers, Ian.

i also have to eat my words... a hyundai has impressed me. at school 2 years back theres was a bloke at school who bought himself a brand new metallic purple hyundai excel. he worked at the gym = very huge man in very small car... hilarious!
