You should buy one. That way you don't have to use your
imagination.

Re: 05 Jeep grand
This is what I was thinking of:
"That big news was, of course, the 1990 Corvette ZR-1 coupe (the ZR-1 was
never available as a convertible). Nicknamed "King of the Hill," the ZR-1
was built around the Lotus-designed, Mercury Marine-built, all-aluminum,
5.7-liter, DOHC, 32-valve LT5 V8 making an astounding 375 horsepower. That
is, it made 375 horsepower when an in-dash key was set in "full-power" mode
and not in the "valet" mode when it was limited to just 250 horsepower."

Re: 05 Jeep grand
Hi Dave,
That's a SMOG motor, and there's a zillion ways they could mess
with the computer to make or take away horsepower, as limited as it is,
it's the fuel economy Dialer's after to justify this Hemi with the
Environmental Protection Agency, and to do that they must take away
cubic inches. My thunderbird has an OHC V8, it's not worth thinking
about. And note you were looking at 375 HP, Geez a stock '66 327" Vette
has that! And of course it's push rod, for brute horsepower like the new
Hemi.
