Don't look too close at the chop or the illusion looks like C.R.A.P.
stretched the wheelbase...

thats pretty much what i envisioned. i have rough dimensions for the engine and tranny, and i'm almost certain i can get it to work fairly well. my original idea had been to use a trans am, and i tried a rough chop using some rough scale dimensions... the way its looking is like the middle of the door handle is going to be in line with the rear firewall. the channels for the air scoops for the intakes would be set with the bottom edge on the door crease (on the Trans Am door)

Done right it could be very cool... Probably not much of a market for the one-off pieces you'll have to design to make it work tho. Would be a great "see what we can do" build.

thats what i've been thinking. and now that i've seen a Camaro with the stretched wheelbase, i think a second interchangeable body may be in order...

see "Mid-Engine_Dave" post http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/fa...ird-gen-2.html #61 "Here's the engine on the Toronado transaxle with the powder/ceramic coating fresh. The engine is a tall deck Bow Tie block with Lunati rotating assembly, 4.56 bore/4.625 stroke for 604 cu.in., 10:1 compression and a fairly mild Comp Cams hydraulic roller cam. It has Edelbrock rectangular port heads with a Force Fuel Injection 2,000 cfm throttle body and 50 lb/hr injectors controlled by a Holley Commander 950 ecu. The headers are 2.12" tubes, equal length with a 180 degree fire order in the collectors, hence the crossovers. The headers give it a higher pitched sound unlike most big blocks." #63 "A few more engine shots. The Toro transaxle requires a tube thru the oil pan for the right side drive axle - it just clears the counterweights under the #3 main bearing. Everything that could be was powder coated to make upkeep easy as this is a driver." |
