 Inlet manifold is without it's top but you get the idea of the 4 Laminova intercooler cores.

The sprintex supercharger sits in the V under the manifold.

Just work in progress

Feet on the ground guys---

These engines power mums picking up the kids---no drama

Supercharging maybe only 6 psi which will make it nice and torquey--

Still my daily road car---

People who have driven it with the old 32 v v8 were surprised how easy it is to drive

A real granny car ---yes really.

Hello from Vortex

Wow! Obviously our negative comments inspired you to prove us wrong!  :o

Apologies for being such an a$$ in that Vortex thread - you came across as one of the usual dreamers who has a silly idea and no clue how to do it. Obviously that is very far from the truth and you made the silly idea actually work  :D

Nicely done  8)

Lee you should whack another 40V in the boot

Just for good measure...

Then that could be considered Excessive Excessivness..

This is unreal. If only my wife would let me do it.

Where did you get the engine from? Must have cost a bit.

But is it economical Lee 8)

 Stick some big fat stick rubber on the front one day and take it to the drags, be good to see some numbers.
