Now that would kick ass! Has anyone ever put a big block anything in a De
Lorean? A blower with the bug catcher sticking out above the roof would not
be very intimidating at all :P

Ford Motorsports makes a 429/460 ALUMINUM racing block... You could simply
use a Pantera transmission... tempted yet? =)

Don't tempt me Mr. Smarty Pants. If ever I were to convince the rest
of the community up once & for all... What's the rear weight bias with
a 700 lbs engine anyway?
Wonder if Toby's miracle input shaft could withstand 450 ft lbs of
torque? Should I build it to 500+?
If Bryan Pearce will weld me a Class III frame, I could show up at DCS
2006 towing a trailer with 2 other DeLo's on it.
It's all suddenly becoming so much clearer...
