9 Sec Crate Engine ZZ4???

[Prostreet513]

I found these 2 novas on ebay about 20 min from me and I called the guy just to see what he said.

Now this one he said it run's 9's and he has invested 40k into it and it's an all tube chassis car yet he left the stock a arms on the the front end is all 1 piece fiberglass, and the deck lid and bumpers are fiberglass and whatever else. He said he would take no less than 19k. I think both cars look nice but he is pretty out there claiming this zz4 small block runs 9's I mean come on. I honestly don't see that car even being close to 40k invested and if so he got ripped off.

Here really didn't say much about this one except it was all steel body and that he would take no less than 15k for it which doesn't seem too bad but seeing how much he bs about the first one who knows

I don't know about 9s on the first one unless it's got tons of Nitrous going through it. Sure does look the part though.

The second one confuses me, why such a pro looking narrowed rear for 350 HP? :confused:

9's in the 1/8?

I think the first one with lots of nitrous will run that, i don't like the flames on it, but now the second one i really like the purple with the ghost flames on it and i think the reason it has a 350/350 is that he ran out of money.....

I'm with John, I like the second one...

He said the first one is a stock zz4 so how could those internals handle alot of nitrous? I think these cars are just pretty paint jobs to look the pro street part. My pro street sits like these but I have a radical 427 bbc with a 2 stage nitrous system and all forged 4340 internals and a full roller set up. I personally like the 2nd one much better and it's all steel. I talked to the guy and he seemed a bit strange

I know! You buy both cars stick the engine from the first car into the 2nd one:D

Exactly - a ZZ4 crate w/ stock internals is only gonna take so many hits, depending upon the size shot. If it's a baby shot, it'll be ok for a while.

Also, on the 1st one, kinda curious why he mounted the NOS bottle sideways. Not a good idea. :no:

Not sure I don't even know if it's a fully plumbed system? Maybe a purge system?

:yes::yes::yes:

I like the second one but, I would want the ZZ4 engine. The stock ZZ4 has allot of potential with 355 HP and 410 Ft Tq stock.

I think he is referring to how long the engines will last....

Yes sir. It wouldn't last more then a few passes if that with anything over a 200 shot. If I keep my 427 I think I might switch it from a cheater to a 2 stage however I have internals to handle it
