Slight correction Boom. That third brakelight came out of a 94-? Seville STS . The 91-93 Cadillac donor cars did not have that type of brakelight mounted in the trunklid. But it does really look cool. actually the body style change was 92 up on the sts.

Just remember, it's not about the speed for some of us. If I wanted to worry about 1/4 mile times I'd be looking at a bigger engine, but I enjoy the torque and a little extra kick in the pants that's all I would like and the tractor motor does this just fine.

Before anyone get's their panties in TOO big of a wad (or in Purple Reign's case, his thong ) this thread won't degenerate into a tractor motor vs. whatever flame fest between us. Shaun and I pretty much carried on like this throughout the show and whenever I used the line "bow down before the power and majesty of the mighty tractor motor" he had a special salute for me that he was QUITE EAGER to share. (no, it wasn't the single finger salute either, if you know Shaun, you'll know he's a bit more creative than that) For the record, I think his car is great. His engineering and execution is second to none and despite the fact I kidded him about a "purple car", the paint with the ghost flames is gorgeous. My hat's off to him. Now, bow down, you dog, before the power and majesty of the mighty tractor motor! (I sure wish I'd have gotten a picture of his salute though.......) John Stricker PS: there was never any doubt about me making it to the show although the arrival time was certainly in question............... PSS: he also drinks girly fruity drinks at the bar.

I'm not trying to make a engine debate go on, Hell I was dead set on a 3800 SC till I compared the numbers. And in my case the Tractor motor numbers are more than enough to make me happy. I love Shawns car, he does excellant work. And I did notice some weird drink concoctions (I believe they were called Miami Vice's ???), I stuck with the Margs and anything else with Tequilla in it Dan

Oslo ripped the videos down to 3 different sizes - low, medium and high - which are 28mb, 45mb, and 96mb respectively. You can stream them, or right-click and save them (to watch later), from my website: http://www.boomtastic.com/oslo/ Enjoy! ------------------

No, I was never Racing him. I just wanted to get a good side shot of his car. I HIGHLY recommend watching the high (100MBs) vid but if you can't wait that long you should check out the Med. video. The low quality vid is very very low quality!
Boomtastic-Thanks a ton for hosting the video! I know that it's not a free service and I appreciate it.

Nice video, Oslo. Wish I could've went on the cruise. You guys took off before I got there. Here's a few pictures I took. I have higher res versions (1200x1600) of all the pictures I took (I think). I missed a few cars, but got most everyone's that was there.
