Hmmm, wonder if they'd fit under the bonnet of a Cerbera
May create rather too much heat in the engine bay on the cerb though...besides, get some work done on it by trackcar solutions or austec, and it'll be plenty fast enough without the turbos

no it wont.
I reckon one would be the bo-diddley on a 302 ford then
And mount the westgate just off the turbot, non?

I was thinking along the lines of 6 cylinders in a long long line goodness. So either Jag straight 6 or BMW, it's just a question of what the hell do I put it in
But jus, 302 or baby 289 would be cool and more likely.

Big JEEP six for the win...

The Jeep 6 is a nice motor, for sure! Do usually have bottom end noises though (not duff, just noisy) which does take some of the charm out 'of em though! 
Suffer from a bit of piston slap sometimes as well. Saying that, they'll sound like a broken diesel for thousands upon thousands of miles before they actually ...........stop!

Penski,
Any idea where he got this from, in the back of mind something is telling me to 'do it' instead of chucking 300 - 400 extra of gas down its throat (which WILL get expensive) and if I can locate 2 identical units that are big enough for the amount of air an 8 litre moves (though in theory I need to calculate it as if it were 2 4 litres lumps)....I might be swayed (and if I can locate a pair....I can sell all the nitrous bits I have to progress things!)
Im assuming this is over on RR?
Edit - actually, if anyone knows a source of HX40 / HX50-55 / HX60 it would be appreciated, quick bit of digging shows the 35 running out of puff on a 302, so at a minimum im looking at the 40 / 50 but would prefer the 55 / 60......now to try and locate a cheap source for a matched pair!!!!

Yup - from RR.
I'd presume he got it from a scrappy. Best place to find out where to get a bigger one would be to ask holset/cummins what the OEM applications are/were...
...That said, one of the guys on RR works for them so he may know
A pair of 35s should be fine for an 8 litre...er...eight.
500bhp each...More than enough to scare yourself

These are quite commonly used in the US when turbo charging Honda B series engines
Most of the ones I've seen use T3/4 hybrids or smaller...I don't think you quite get how big this thing is...
Hang on...I have a pic of one next to a T3 somewhere...

I understand exactly how big it is. I've just had a quick squint on honda-tech and there are loads of people using them, admittedly some are hybrids, but most are plucked straight from Dodge Ram diesel engines and used. They certainly love their huge turbos over the pond.

I would have thought 2 35's would have been OK, but a quick seach of one of the big turbo forums showed a single 35 @ 10psi restricting flow just after 5k, although I would be missing 102ci (2x302 = 604 - 502 = 102ci) the 502 does flow a LOT of air and I would rather have a safe overhead than being restricted to what I could turn the boost upto.
Will drop you a PM over on RR a bit later
