Street Machine magazine February 2023

The February 2023 issue of Street Machine is packed with beaut stuff, headlined by a properly epic VL Walkinshaw tribute drag-and-drive weapon that’s good for 1800hp. The exquisitely finished, twin-turbo LS-powered streeter has already gone 8.0 over the quarter, and sevens are surely just around the corner.

If you’re more of a supercharger kind of person, you’re sure to love Nick Novak’s outrageous blown and injected Windsor-powered Mustang, packing 1000hp of brutal shove.

Fans of pro touring cars will definitely get around Ashley Laurence’s second-gen Camaro with its trick suspension, manual gearbox and 502ci of ProCharged big-block awesomeness.

Father-and-son team Steve and Leo Mortakis have fashioned a delightfully old-school small-block Torana that graced the Elite Hall at Street Machine Summernats 35, and just as beautifully finished is Lynda Rowe’s pretty-in-pink XM Falcon coupe.

It’s hard not to love a blown Chev-powered HT Monaro GTS, and for the Mopar fans, we’ve even got a tastefully built ’65 Plymouth ’Cuda.

We’ll take you to one of the raddest events of the year in Chopped, and then to the Optima Search for the Ultimate Street Car to see the finest pro touring cars in the land duking it out.

We’ve also got a great tech yarn on home engine building, and a cool where-are-they-now piece on an old Performance Street Car cover star.

There’s all this and more in the Street Machine February issue, so get on it!
