It's funny that Shaunbag has his nutswingers come over here and post his garbage.

Did he happen to tell you guys that his best friend is the guy running the Dyno?

Did he mention that he didn't run his own car on the Dyno?

Did he mention that every since that event, Frank Martin has been trying to get the data sheets on exactly what the settings were on the Dyno for each car as it was put on the Dyno?

Did any of you bigshots ever wonder why all the posts in RFT vs teh World were deleted right after Daytona?

Ask Shaunbag what the FL Attorney Generals office said to him when the contacted him about all his libelous comments?

You say the threads were just deleted, nope boys, they were locked down. They were put away, so the Attorney Generals office couldn't view them anymore.

You idiots are being used so bad & Shaunbag is just laughing at you more than anyone.

Funny, how Shaunbag says anything he wants & you guys are too scared to demand proof from him.

Awesome. I'm a "Shaunbag nutswinger" now. Don't expect any referrals from me if you're going to resort to name calling.

Stimpy closed a thread on RFT because Shaun couldn't substantiate his claims that you went bankrupt.

Back ON topic, the black soot spewing out of the tail pipes is an obvious indication that tuning is needed. Badly. Since carbs are so easily tuned with a screwdriver, I'm surprised this wasn't done on the spot. Okay, not really.....

What are the datails behind the 377? 400 block? 350 block? Crank? Compression ratio?

The same or more torque can be made with a 279ci northstar.



377 is a 350 crank in a 400 block. Chevy never offered this combo in production, so it is a built engine BY DEFINITION.

Since this is a built engine, simply by fact of being a 377, I'd have to guess that HP was definitely a concern.

You're a nutswinger when you come here to do Shaunbags durty work because he's too afraid to do it himself.

Yeah, Stimpy is the only one who's had the guts to demand of Shaunbag what Shaunbag demands of others "PROOF".

This is on topic, are you the only one here that doesn't understand this thread is about bashing?

All the rest of this has already been discussed in the D7 Dyno thread.

Here's that thread http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/064529.html just in case you're really interested but I doubt it, I think you're just here for the bashing.

Well, you know how Shaunbag is all the time giving out mis-information & telling lies............ Wellllll during the several weeks running up to the Daytona show, I did a little Shaunbagging. I told everyone it was a 377 but it actually is just a 350 crank in a 350 block.

In these 2 pics you can see that it only has 2 freeze plugs. Thus indicating that it's a non 400 block. Pictures of this engine were posted up in a build thread & Shaunbag & his boys never even noticed that it wasn't a 400 block. Shaunbag, the expert doesn't even know how to tell a 400 block from a 350 block. So you better explain it to them.





Additionally it's an 8.5-1 C.R. engine that I took out of another car & stuck the B.G. Carb on.

So, it would appear that Shaunbag has been bagged.

Actually it wasn't all that much trouble. That engine was going into that car anyway. And I made a post showing the engine and calling it a 377 to see if anyone was paying attention. I more or less forgot all about it until the Dyno discussion came up for D7.

Since that was a car I was thinking about taking to D7, I decided to do some Shaunbaggin to the Shaunbagger hisself.

My customers know how the cars preform. Lots of them have Dyno sheets & Time slips. They don't post them up because they don't want to listen to the crap that you RFT'ers put out everytime someone posts up.

Shaunbag has never driven or even rode in a properly built SBC Fiero, yet you guys hang on his every word. This is only proof once again that he really has no clue what he's talking about.

I only brought it up now because with Will's earlier post, he might be the only RFT'er that knows what a 400 block looks like.

They're scared that they might be slammed for paying rediculous prices for your kit, to get about the same amount of wheel horsepower as an SRT-4. They don't post because of the crappy numbers they've produced on the Dyno, and when it is posted? Low and behold, they're CRAPPY numbers.

Then comes the load of excuses about the dyno being off, or the climate, etc, etc.

I'll stick with my Supercharged Ecotec Cobalt SS that makes about the same to the wheels, and gets better gas mileage too.

There are better alternatives out there it seems, out of the vast variety of engines available to swap into a Fiero, it's known that only the hard core "Hot Rodders" or "Boyd Coddington Wanabes" will pay so much for so little. What's the appeal? The V8 sound? It certainly isn't the bad gas mileage, or the percieved lack of horsepower...

Let's take Crzyone for an example: He spends about as much as you would be spending on your kit, and engine to do his northstar swap... Low and Behold? The car makes more power, more Torque and will run Faster in the 1/4 mile.

Archie, why don't you do something DIFFERENT? Why not strive to be the best, make the most HP, etc. You would get my attention if I saw a Fiero that make 600 hp at the wheels, why can't you or won't you do it? All I've smelt over 5 years is stink. SBC's should be making more power and you know it. So why the excuses? Let's see it.

SELL ME ON YOUR PRODUCT.

A potential Customer,

Sean
