So I picked this up today from some dudes in chicago

I'm not going to post any more pictures because the car is absolutely filthy and the rims are ugly as sin (the welds were stolen off)

It's a 92 LX w/ a 317 stroker, edelbrock performer heads and intake, Ed curtis custom grind blower cam, 30 lb injectors, AOD w/ 3500 stall etc. etc.

Oh yeah, i forgot it has one of those blower things. In the original ad he listed it as a YS-i trim....yet the model # says V-1 on it. I even double asked him about the YSi part knowing that there was no chance in hell that it could be a YSi and he still insisted yes....this thing has S trim written all over it

Anywho, the point being, i got another car

The bad:

It has a blown pump seal on the tranny so it spews fluid everywhere. Hopefully I'll have the fixed tomorrow, clean her up a bit and drive it until the **** gas is outa her.

Not a single spec of rust on it, some minor blemishes and somebody keyed the top of the spoiler. Interior is black and in decent shape (none of the power **** works anymore, minor stuff missing).

He took my bike, I took his car no cash involved. I think I got a pretty decent deal outa it...even though it really isn't a YS-i trim.... :rolleyes:

It looks like a s trim in the pic. If it was a ysi, there wouldn't be any head gaskets left in it.:rolf

What does it have for tuning? Should be a 10 second car!:thumbsup

That's the beauty. It has absolutely NOTHING for tuning. The only thing remotely close is the MSD/Vortech boost retard. This car has tons of potentiol with a tune and a good fuel system . STOCk computer and 30 lb. injectors. yay.

I'm not experienced with blower cars at all...so I may need some pointers :thumbsup

Oh yeah the tank is already sumped...just not in use yet :)

It didn't run me a dime except for the cost of a new battery and what it's gonna cost to get the seal replaced on the tranny. It will be at fast times tomorrow getting some odds and ends tied up. It still has some shitty gas in it with a crap load of stabile (it hasnt' been out this year yet) so I'm going to have to take it easy for a little while once she's going.

I beg to differ. Calypso cars are pretty damn sharp actually.
