Ok, bit of an update.

I have the T56 + clutch lines, pedals, yoke and wiring for the installation, as noted in past post.

plus now i have the bellhousing/flexplate an cad drawing to do the T56 adapter plate install.

So, as a starting point, im going to do a HD 10.5" 26spline single clutch, same as in the late model mustang on a custom 11 1/4" flywheel to finish running in the engine, after that i then will upgrade to a triple plate clutch.

now its a matter of $$$ for the clutch, flywheel an adapter.

Yeah there was more in the tune but even 270-80 rwkw is pretty decent considering how much they take to drive at 16psi?

It definitely needed more WI in the plenum so a good chance for the new owner to tap in an extra nozzle or 2?

Whatever, it was never going to touch the TT setup....just worlds apart i'm afraid.

True, there was still about 50kw or so i think with better cooling.

Yeah i final got my WI kit too,
coolingmist 250psi pump with dual solenoids an a couple of 180 an 250cc injectors,
the solenoids will be used to create a dual stage WI system pre an post SC.

I reckon you'll be happy with it Twinscrew is more efficient so you'll make more hp/psi boost.

If my setup sat under the bonnet line i'd probably have tried to develop it a bit more but i really missed that mid range punch the turbos deliver.

If you do go turbo forget the garretts...those ones anyways. The new Borg Warner turbos are definitely the best bang for buck around, if not the best outright turbo at present. The new light weight wheels and and package design is pretty darn impressive.

The only garretts that would touch them would be the new GTX3076R with the Tial turbine housings?....dammed expensive though.

has anyone seen the new whipple frontmount Supercharger yet, here is a pic of the new design of a 2.9ltr charger.

supercharger

that new harrop looks good...... couldn't you assume though, that it would suck a little more HP that a front drive ?

 

[XR8tt]

Bonnet clearance is the problem with front mount pulley..

I dont think that will be a issue, i think the throttle body mounting plate is more off a problem if u have a good look, as it is higher then the pulley an u can always go for a smaller pulley anyway.
