I usually don't respond to this kind of claim, but I had to call BS on this guy.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/car/111806411.html

Going 9's NA with cast iron Ford heads, shorty headers, and a T5. I wonder if he can even run 12's.

Looking at the list of parts,it could be a strong running street/strip car,but I just can't see how it could run a 9 in the 1/4 even with NOS. Maybe he is talking about 1/8 mile ?

Seems as though he knows Merlin, probably even related But he doesnt read very well; (Avoid scams & fraud by dealing locally) this should be the sticker on the front window Maybe he means some parts will cover the 1/4mile with Nitro

you know... all joking aside... that's not too bad of a price to just gut the car, and use it for parts I could use a new intake, and some good headers
