My88Se 08-16-03 02:20 PM

Silkworm 08-16-03 09:06 PM

Yea that bay looks kinda full OF PISTONS :uzi: :spank:

Dyre 08-19-03 12:19 AM

So its like a alchole altered motor with a turbo. nice! :)
Alcy should negate the need for a giant IC as well. ;)

nimrodTT 08-26-03 09:59 PM

It's certainly different.

RageRace 08-27-03 04:23 PM

Thats sweet bro!!! Get that beast painted and youll be the bad boy on the block. Seriously congrats its lokks great

Cwaters 08-27-03 07:26 PM

Should have turned the turbo around so you could just cut a holein the bumper for the intake :)

gnx7 08-28-03 12:56 AM

yallgotboost-

........that should be a pretty sick creation when it is finished. What is the projected weight for it when completed?

Are those s/s or mild steel headers? Also what do you plan to run as far as a transmission and what rear out back and style suspension?

Do you propose to keep it all under the hood? Would make for one hell of a sleeper. Make sure you either get the headers high temp coated or at the least wrap them in header wrap (may cause metal fatigue and cracking). The underhood heat in the FC engine bay with any turbocharged motor can get excessive and will affect the cooling system.

Wow, thats pretty cool.. Not a fan of piston swaps, but damn look at all the custom work~!

setzep 08-30-03 11:04 AM

This is the one I like.

https://www.angelfire.com/extreme4/r.../waste_039.jpg

But why does the exhaust point forward?

yallgotboost 08-30-03 11:05 AM

the headers are mild steel i plane to get them jet hot coated as for the rear its gettin a ford 9" with a 4 link setup every part onb the car i have made been alot of work should run good

setzep 08-30-03 11:11 AM

oops double post

yallgotboost 08-30-03 11:42 AM

Cwaters 08-30-03 11:43 AM

Isn't that bumper exhaust going to melt the plastic?

AND what about the fumes when you're crusing for chicks?

CW

yallgotboost 08-30-03 11:44 AM

the 5" DP come threw the fender not the bumper

yallgotboost 08-30-03 11:53 AM

gnx7 i have no idea how to post on that site it will not let me for some reason my sn is yallgotboost

setzep 08-30-03 09:17 PM

I think he means the heat off the turbine housing, not the DP.

FDreaming 09-01-03 04:22 AM

I'm a rotary purist that doesn't even own a rotary. I'd like to see what that kind of money invested in a 20B setup would do:D

BUT! I have a lot of respect for someone who can do that kind of work! Looks good man! Good luck at the track.

Smoken' 09-01-03 04:43 PM

Thats freakin' sick!!! In a good way of course. Good luck...

I doubt that his set-up is anywhere near the $$$ of a properly running 20B conversion...

PureSephiroth 09-07-03 06:18 PM

Is this a drag car or for road racing? I'm guessing drag but I'm dumb so please tell me.

mazdized 09-24-03 01:18 PM

Hum talk about front heavy, but who cares even I have thought about a LS1 too. :) How it the weight and how it is distributed?

cpa7man 09-25-03 06:40 AM

Looks great, thats some of the largest turbo piping ive seen.

yallgotboost 10-15-03 04:58 PM

the car is a drag car but might hit the street on a friday night it will be in the 2004 motorsports racing expo

BigIslandSevens 10-15-03 05:55 PM

Beutyfull!! Very inspirational!!! I just got the itch for a project!

AJatx 10-16-03 10:19 PM

Again, nice work! It'll be a good contender for drag.

It's definitely geared for drag and NOT road racing.

Who cares if the exhaust is pointing upwards? It's a short exit for a few second pass.

I doubt the car's weight is vastly affected with the v-8. Depending on what components are used and how the rest of the car is prepped, it could be balanced.

A 20B conversion couldn't touch this set-up.

Great job!

yallgotboost 10-17-03 06:06 PM

im not really sure how balanced the car is but it should hook very well with the rear setup i have from pushing the car around feels very light compared to it with the rotary

eoph 10-17-03 06:25 PM

but i'll take a 20b conversion ne day. i too think the balance shouldn't be affected much
