V-8 project

kram350kram:
Thought some might be interested in my V-8 project. Any comments welcome.

Kendo:
Details please! Is the V8 from a Lotus, as that valve cover implies? How does the weight compare to whatever that car had before?

BDA:
Very interesting... Which V8 are you using? Are  you planning to strengthen the frame? I have heard that the V8 Esprit suffers from a frame can can twist under the torque of its engine.

Pretty clever way of fitting an alternator. I think it might be really difficult to change the belt. That brings me to where and how big are your fuel tank(s) going to be?

TurboFource:
289 - 302?     What transaxle are using?   Is the frame slotted for the alternator belt?

Very Interesting.....
