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

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.

Keep it comming guys. How about the 8-71 without the intercooler? Although I would feel much better with an intercooler.
