The JimLab effect

This isn't quite the caliber of JimLab's project, just couldn't think of anything else to title it. Enjoy the .... massiveness.

I'm pretty sure its a standard '92 chevy 350 motor. Just want to mention that this isn't my car. He is aiming for 550+rwhp and who knows how much torque. I would have gone with an LS1, but then again, I wouldn't even do that.

Thats a hell of a shifter. Kinda like the one in my old Ford truck. I like the subtlety of the motor though

What's with the bus shifter? The person used to driving 18 wheelers or something?

That is ******* insane. I'll admit, its better than the crazy single turbo setup he had before, but DAMN. He needs to just go all out and get the triple throttle plate intake. At least then it would look like one of those matchbox toys.
