It might be squeezy with FE-FC inner gaurds but these days you can probably stick the turbo at the back of the car. Title: Re: Twin Turbo V8?? Post by: Ed on February 26, 2007, 11:17:35 PM Dags,
ive looked into it a little bit. was thinking a stroked 253 ( to 310) with 2 huffers. be prepared for the HUGE cost for the motor alone. forged pistons, conversion to 4 bolt mains, head work etc. then whack on more for some decent water cooled, roller bearing huffers. just cos that aint enough a fair amount of head scratching for the exhaust, intercoolers etc. you prolly need to cut out the inner guards completely to get the space, and then introduce a bit of structural issues as a result. i'd love to see it done ;D if i were to start over, I'd go a turbo, but for now, the numbers and re-engineering doesnt add up, especially when a 355 stroker is one step away.
