I am in the Orlando area so like an 1 hour 35 min away. Direct Message me if I can help you out.

Great things are coming. We just got a donor car in Florida for the mock up for the improvements so we should have a kit out in s few weeks to me for testing and a build. Then production! Thank you Sam for your help!!!

And, Fever, I may need a 2nd car. I'll let you know here shortly. Please send me a direct message if you can.

Probably not, BMR makes mounts but I don't think they lower the engine that much. Plus you'll probably have some pretty nasty vibrations going on. I don't think these engines like stiff mounts, I know MagnumForce tried some and ended up removing them.

That's what I heard, some people where going to try to get a roots style to fit under the hood by doing that. Never heard if anyone ever did it though. Below is a hood cut to fit a roots style. I like the second option someone had on here though.

Hmmm the first one doesn't stick out too bad! Lol if we could get the motor lowered like 2 inches it'd work for sure.
