Yep....they are coming out of the boat in about a month if they don't sell and I'm going to sell the parts off of 'em. Heads, intakes, innercoolers, blowers, cams, pistons....all of it except for the blocks, cranks and rods.

Who wants a spare set of motors for a Poker Run beast????? :D :evilb: :D :evilb:

Sounds like a well built engine. What compression and cam?

A pair of 301E turbos will only move enough air for about 750 HP. That's a lot of hardware to deal with for only 750 HP. The 8-71 can easily deliver that much HP with an intercooler and is a much simpler installation. A single centrifugal/intercooler/blowthrough carb on that engine can deliver 950 HP and is also very simple in comparison.

I don't blame you for taking the twin turbo stuff off. I've been down that road too and decided against it.

There used to be a 28 Pantera in Sandusky Ohio that had twin turbo's and a Stern Powr Outdrive.

Tomcat I sent you an e-mail saturday if you havn't seen it, take a look at it when you get a chance. Thanks , Scott
Keep it comming guys. How about the 8-71 without the intercooler? Although I would feel much better with an intercooler.
