I think that is a great idea! many people just cant afford to go all out at once and if they can see it work on somewhat of a budget then it could help us all out quite a bit! I know that the most expensive way isnt always the best way, so if there is hard numbers to back it all up that makes it all sweeter!

I like the idea a lot. Are you going to try to build the motors to a specific dollar amount or go for a horsepower # or 1/4 mile time?

This is the best idea Ive heard in awhile.The only bad thing is you'll be done with both engines and running and mine will still be on jackstands

watching this build. I have a 2vlave and am considering switching to DOHC in a couple years. Will my short block work or do I have to change the pistons out? I have Manley 18CC dished pistons.
Thanks

also do you think the headers would crossover?

^^^^^^  We can build rockets to put men on the moon 40 years ago......... But you still cant find boost controllers (electronic) that are EASY to setup/adjust... I'll never touch or sell another E-boost....ever... So we used a AEM tru-boost on a customers car,we laminated the instructions and zip tied them to the rollcage.So what does the customer do?? Removes it to do the interior and looses it
