Power Block TV

I guess this doesnt really belong in this thread but I was just watching Power Block TV and I realized that I have never seen a 3rd gen on there show. Have any of you guys ever seen one on there show before? Maybe I will wright them about it. I think alot of viewers would tune in to watch that one. Hey I might just let them use my car on there show.LOL

Yeah they had a 82-84 camaro on there. The paint was shot, but it had a really nasty 406 smallblock. They had it on the dynojet spraying it, too see how much of a hit, it would take before it blew.

Elmore had a pretty nice red colored bird on there at one time as well. I dont think it was a top of the line model though. Might have been a vert even.

Yeah, it was a drag strip pounder. It said right on the show the owner doesn't give a #@^* about the paint as long as it gets him down the strip faster. They sprayed it for him IIRC.

They also had a red thirdgen firebird on Horsepower TV before. I believe it had a 305 TBI and they put a n20 kit on it.

Yes, I saw that episode! I think was before Horsepower TV was part of the power block. It belonged to one of the guys on the show, I think the blonde one.

Sorry, this is not Aftermarket Product Review related so I have to lock it.

It would be nice to see a TGO thirdgen on there, though.
