    Just yesterday I was trying to explain to someone just how aweasome the Yenko is. It's over 30 years old and will easily beat most anything else out there made today in a straight line. Aweasome cars.

    Cool car but not a Yenko. Motor is a Yenko part, though. A continuation, of sorts, of the ZL-1 after Chevy quit casting them. Pretty sure both Chevy and Yenko aluminum components were cast at Winters foundry. No expert, though.
