Mike and Jim Ring from Ringbrothers<\/a> brought their 1971 Aston Martin DBS called “OCTAVIA” to Jay Leno’s Garage. The duo created the amazing car with a supercharged 5.0 L Coyote V8 capable of 805 hp (592 kW). Behind the motor is a torque tube and Bowler Carbon Edition six-speed manual transaxle. The powertrain is supported by custom Roadster Shop Fast Track Stage 3 chassis using RS Fox Racing coilovers, C7 Corvette end links, Brembo GT six-piston front brakes, and Brembo GT four-piston rear brakes. Over that is a carbon fiber body fabricated by Gemini Technology Systems covered in BASF Glasurit \u201cDouble-0 Silver\u201d with \u201cNuclear Olive\u201d accent paint. A set of custom HRE three-piece wheels (19\u00d711, 20\u00d713) with a Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires (285\/35, 345\/30). Find the car’s full specs here<\/a>. <\/p>\n
