what don't you like the sound of an engine sitting on the limiter going flat out while the ECU is going nah, pull out fuel, ping, more fuel, max rpm, pull out fuel ping ......
there would be something of a skill to keep the rears going and not being at 5500rpm ... a set of 4.11's and a mini spool will help though.

With 4.11's you should have no trouble spinning the rears, should be able to get into 2nd or 3rd really.

May as well cut a hole in the bonnet and have a pair of TB's mounted on the top of the plenum sucking cool air.

take my old engine and the RE92 tyres. It limit bashes all the way in 1st, like a big texta across the road. You know its not a lemon when I have owned it.

so much lol in this thread
vlad i thought you took that apart?
immortality - won't be running a bonnet - but yes, will have twins sticking straight up dude. when running a bonnet i want to rig it up with a bug catcher - because i can.
was going to do a kitted auto ; recipe is ;

emptied
4.11s w/mini spool
full manual & built th700 - by me - always wanted to build a trans (non electronic) - with seperate trans cooler & thermo fan on trans cooler
oil bypass and cooler and seperate trans type cooler & thermo fan to keep engine oil cool
3 core alloy radiator for v6 - with usual thermofan
water 'mister' to spray in front of radiator to help keep temps down (i figure its gotta run for at least 3 minutes at full spray)
straight thru 2.25" pipes exiting just before the rear wheels (no cats or mufflers) - longer to help with scavenge affect and outlet near rears to push smoke away
300lb springs in rear (stiff)

may look to getting a turbo as well to force 1 bar into it as well

prefer a VN/VP shell for this. although could get a boxcar EA/EB and put a v6 in it with Delco just to piss HQ355 off ;) and because its funny ;)

feedback welcome. its just a moment of stupidity and its fun, and my son liked it too. and my missus is already pissed off i am thinking about it = win.
