ok, so it doesnt have the 440, and it probably does have catalytic converter, but its still pretty cool

But does it have cop tires ?
It’s a 106 miles to Chicago,
We have a half a tank of gas ,a full pack of cigarettes,it’s dark and we’re wearing sunglasses......
 
Close the windows above 140 it says! That's gotta be one really, really long and straight downhill road!

Nah. I had a 1980 Chevy Impala, 267 V8-that’s a reduced bore 305 (3.5” bore) that would wind up to 130mph. Needed a bit more than a couple of miles. On holidays, on the Interstate, I drove that fast (2002ish) along with traffic on the interstate.
 
"Rust free" from Virginia, brand-switched, made up to look like a Michigan car, located in Connecticut, with a "Fantastic big block sound." Sounds a little fishy to me. Still cool nonetheless.

VIN checks out other than price class is "low" and not "police" (second digit L and not K).

My sister's 76 Chevy Monza had the smallest small block of all. A 262. It would wrap up to about 135 till I blew it up and then put a stock small block 400 in it. I don't know how fast it would go after that.

Nitrogen isn't supposed to have moisture in it like regular atmospheric air does.
 
We flood paper cable with nitrogen. Its a dry gas and paper cable doesn't like moisture...

I'll say it does 3: It fills the tire(!) ....and it fills the tire with a non reactive gas. It takes oxygen to form iron oxide (rust) so without it. It will never form on the inside of the rim. Nitrogen is not reactive to rubber like oxygen is so it won't degrade the case from the inside out. Compressed air from a tire shop is not dry.
 
I thought it was odd myself to be digging up an old thread, just to rip on a sales product, but thought I'd clarify his thinking.
 
I will add to the pile,nitrogen does not support combustion.thats why aircraft tires are filled with it. Molecules are larger, so less seepage, ya-right. Molecules arent the size of a nail. So leaks are a moot point.
