Never I would have imagined being able to document a vehicle of this calibre in such detail and personal involvement, this is probably the best special feature to ever been captured here on Musclecars Universe.
I was given the opportunity to help the Team at Savage Garage NZ with the setup and preparation for Chrome NZ Horsepower Festival 2022 of the one and only KING XY, a 1970 Ford Falcon GT that has been heavily modified to destroy eardrums and to shake the ground, a monster of torque and speed ready to unleash its destructive power on a closed circuit ground.
Videolog starts with a general introduction of the car and then we launch ourselves driving to the racetrack and followed by 3 full days of total V8 madness, VP Race Fuel and complete fun and enjoyment.
Here's a few specs of this tire-shredding beast:
555ci big block Ford
Edelbrock alloy heads
8/71 blower
Twin 950 Holley carbs
MSD ignition
HPC coated 4" twin pipe exhausts
3.7 rear diff ratio with Richmond gears and 31 spline billet axles
19inch Simmons wheels
Disk brakes conversion
Currently pushing 1040hp at 6psi on pump fuel, unknown figure on Race Fuel.
Talking to the owner, here's the upgrades currently in the plans:
10/71 blower, EFI full injection, boost increase to 15psi, new fuel system, new cooling system, Gearbox upgrade to a Powerglide 2000hp, new interiors to full black leather and rear mini tub work.
Again, I can't thank enough the team at Savage Garage NZ for giving me this incredible opportunity of featuring such an iconic Aussie Musclecar in its natural environment, the racetrack! And also a big thanks to the organizers of Chrome NZ Festival and the Hampton Downs Race Direction for allowing us to have fun on their circuit in all due safety. To next year's edition then!
