Re: [DML] RE: 3.0 Eagle motors

Regarding bolting a Delorean intake/heads/K-jet system to an Eagle 3.0 short 
block for an "easier" displacement increase for the D: This may be minor , 
but one thing I noticed while looking over the Eagle motor is that with the 
distributor in the front of the head, not behind the intake, it appears the 
distributor will conflict with the Delorean's original belt routing if the 
alternator is kept in the original Delorean location. (On the Eagle the 
alternator sits low on what would be the Delorean's driver's side, right 
where the catalytic converter is.) With the serpentine belt system, I think 
I have a way around this, keeping all of the accessories in the original 
Delorean position. With a V belt, I'm not sure what you could do. I'll post 
more on this and pics when I start converting the Eagle motor.
