ck GMC Typhoon #1438 of 2,500 Quickest/Fastest 4.3L Typhoon in Colorado. ~500whp on 91 octane.
Only time slip at Bandimere (5,300+ft above sea-level) was 12.25 @ 107.81 w/a 60' of 1.71 on a bad ignition module that has since been fixed. I'm pretty sure it has 11's in it at this elevation which would be awfully close to 10's at sea-level. Keep in mind it did this on pump gas and all season tires and in full street trim which is 4,200lbs with me in it. In other words, it's one of the few vehicles that will run the exact same time on the street that it did on the strip. I've owned and been in many fast vehicles and this is by far the fastest out of the hole and even gives my street bikes a run for their money w/0-60 blasts in the 3 second range.
The reason for the sale is because I don't drive it much and can't justify it just sitting. Someone will get more use out of this than me and give it a good home. No day dreamers or tire kickers and no lowballers. This is one of the most solid cleanest Typhoons in existence so if I don't get what I want for it then I keep it. So, serious inquiries only. It would cost twice the asking price to bring any other Typhoon up to it's level. The engine has about 3k miles on it since the build including the drive back from MN where I purchased it. I have TONS of pictures of the build as well. I reserve the right to pull the sale at any time should I decided to keep it unless there is a deposit and I will NOT hold it w/o a deposit.
