I'd love to go with the 25, but with the twin turbo, I'd need to run a
rear-mounted distributor.  The front-mounted one would cause problems with
belt routing... the turbos take up the 'lower' space on the engine, and the
A/C takes up the top left, so I can't have anything in the way on the top
right else there is nowhere for the alternator.
 
I might be interested in that fuel injection setup though...

Hi Dave

I got hold of a semi-disassembled DeLo tranny to go with my 30 tranny. 
The Ren box came with a 10-spline input shaft, no driveshaft flanges and 
a speedo drive on the side of the casing (capped off on the DeLorean 
box). I've bought one of Toby's strengthened couplers to go with it. 
Everything's at the rebuilders but I told him not to ruch as time and 
money's at a premium right now.

I would seriously suggest to anyone to look for a 25 turbo engine. It's 
amazing how an engine that's so different internally can look identical 
on the outside. The cylinder heads even have the mounts for the 
DeLorean/Volvo/R30 intake manifold. It'd be so "easy" to build an engine 
that looks and goes like a legend lump (esp if you have an island kit to 
start with- Dave!). The only issues are that you'll have EFI, with 
different injectors, no metering head or distributor, and the need for 
an ECU.
