Well, back when those Impalas were running around... so were 426 Hemi's.
They would be able to chew on those 427's with ease.

Every pore in your body responded to the sound when those headers fired.{#Bounce}That sound alone won more than one street race.
A friend of mine said my truck assaults all your senses.
  I'll bet my truck has more horsepower than that 427 Impala had.
And probably weighs close to the same as that land boat. Sorry. I don't like Shivitt's.

Hola miami! A colleague of mine does the supercar tracks in Las Vegas (rent something crazy fast, drive on a closed course). It's spendy, but he says there's nothing like it.

They're surprisingly fast.




I tried one once and yeah, they are legit. I regret not buying one that came on the used market a while ago - just to have something for friends to take out and maybe for fishing. Bottom line, if it gets you out on the water, it's good.
