Yeah, if you even COULD drive it! Not an insult, just that monster sounds almost unstreetable:

3500-3800 stall speed converter
...rear end w/ 4:56 Richmond pro gears
ZZ520hp pump-gas Chevy 350
(ie, very peaky)

A purely 1/4-mile machine if I ever saw one.

I know its ot but

3500-3800 stall isn't a problem for the street.

My Nova had a 4500 stall with a powerglide (2speed for those that don't know) and 4:56 gears and I had no problem on the street plus I had a spool (good ol chirp around corners )...the key to a big stall is a GOOD (no great) trans cooler.

It depends on where you live but there are plenty of people here in the south (al.& ms.) that have cars like that and drive them on the street and not have any problems with driving or cops...this is the crowd I hang around.

I am not talking about daily driving but to take out to cruise and do a little street racing its ok to drive.

I lived about 30 miles from the local 1/8 track and I would drive my car to and from the track all the time sometimes if I was lazy I would even leave the slicks on...just put a little more air in them lol.

What I would be afraid of on the Honda is the brakes with all the extra weight and h.p.

Edit: Of course I am not talking about going very fast either...just slow cruising and letting the cam hit

That thing seems to have a part from every major manufacturer.

Thats one sweet Accord. I wonder what it does in the 1/4? It'd be fun to put some stock wheels, and a really quiet exhaust on it.

I doubt that would make a difference....those modified domestic V8s don't quiet down easily!

well its a complete tube chasis so the brakes prolly arent honda and wouldnt be a problem, it seems pretty streetable to me. stock wheels...haha ...no traction, and maybe a few 8 chamber mufflers in a row would quiet it down heh

It's definitely not something you can drive to school or work in everyday, and it's not really even a honda at heart.
