Geez Lee...if your not throwin rocks at retarded kids your pickin on the older folks....we need to have a talk
:rotfl:

Glenn, Gran stang sounds pretty cool.

Operation blue book came to me as I walked past the TV and saw some UFO documentary on one of the channels and it just came to me that the whole roswell incident created the opening of the real "operation blue book"...thought that was fitting for a blue boss...even going to get some plates made up for a photo shoot over here "BLU BOOK"

As for the "K OTIC" build.... originally....It was going to be called "Special K"...as soon as I new I was going Twin turbo....K OTIC was more suited and it utilized the "K" as its a K code GT car

Foresights "Q" was named after a pain in the arse star trek character that I liked... "Q"...thought it fitting for Lee's car considering it was actually a "Q" code....they were meant for each other...two pains in the arse that you really like :rotfl: (just razzin ya Lee)

If I think of something other than Gran Stang...I will let ya know.

If you turbo it...you can call it G-WIZZ
if you paint it red G FUNK
Tunnel ram it Gran Dam
If you paint it white with black stripes...you can call it Lee Furguson (foresight for short)

I really like hearing where the name or theme of a car came from, that makes up a large part of the car's character and is what makes them all more than just cars. It's interesting that you mention the plates, I actually have one here for my Mustang, the plate is from Nevada and has "GS" on it, my Mustang was originally sold in Las Vegas, Nevada, so with my initials on it, I just had to buy it.

Ahhh yes... I know "Q" from Star Trek, he thought he was a god to everyone and everything, good call on that one :rotfl:

Actually my Muzzy is an S-code... which kinda ties in with the GS...

I like Gran Stang. You can try renaming it but I think it has already stuck! You have obviously put some thought into it already and it makes perfect sense. It's a great name :thumbs:
Cheers,

Firstly I have to say I'm a bit concerned about the fact you are thinking about my Kiwis and how they are hanging, don't tell me you have taken out a membership at my personal "For Ladies only" website?? :cheer:

As for Jesus, Nahhh... never touched him, the rumors are all false!! mind you... I *did* have a close buddy by the name of Methuselah... Ahhhhh... the copious amounts of mead we would drink and the stories he'd tell... now those were the good old days!! ;)

OH BUGGER!! Now I can't go on stirring you anymore, it was fun while it lasted ;) it's good to see someone who can joke around instead of taking offence like a lot of others would... I s'pose this is why I like the people on this forum, a great bunch to joke around with and that don't take everything too seriously!! :thumbs:

But getting back to the naming... yeah... I put a lot of thought into it BUT I'm not that good at coming up with names, this one just seemed to fit it more than one way... BUT I'd still swap it for "Q" :drool: :drool: :drool: that throaty V8 rumble from the exhaust in the video (you took of your drive)... I have to admit I played that video over a number of times, with my eyes closed, JUST to listen to the big block purring. I hope my FE (390) sounds reasonably close to your FE, if it does, I'll be one happy camper.

My XD with the 351 Clevo in it sounds pretty good too, I just wish I could get a similar sound out of my 5.0L EL daily driver...

What makes a good name?! One that makes sense and has some meaning/thought behind it!

Looks like there is only one way to find out about the 390...one of the FE390 lads needs to strap on a camera and hit the road. At least until you can supply us with a vid of your finished beast.
