Festivas were badass man, renowned for their demure sex appeal and neck-snapping performance. Ok, I'm joking.

You remember the SHOgun Festivas, though? Rick Titus and Chuck Beck slapped a Taurus SHO V6 in the Festiva, converted it to RWD, and put big box flares on the car. Saying the car only weighed like 1800 lbs and the motor made 220hp, it was pretty danged fast.

hell i dont spend 3500 on my vehicles....but then again youve earned it after being forced to drive a festiva.............


yeah it'd suck to ruin a set of heads that cost $3500 for sure.

e-penis e-penis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

heh the aluminum Indy heads on my 440 don't need that much torque to hold them down.. if I put that much tq on them I'd warp the crap out of the aluminum.
