Come on, you have nearly 2 weeks (actually 12days) to get it finished. I have heard you can do miracles in a week. Get it done. Want to see the tires being shredded in the parking lot.
Hope to see you there.

Dins, ever thought of doing ITBs instead? That may resolve the hood clearance issue.

If you ever get bored doing swaps on 928s, there are a few fun Benz projects to do V12 swaps in also.

That crazy intake is the reason this engine makes 300 ft. Lbs torque at 1200 rpm . Horsepower is what you advertise. Torque is what they buy.

Yea scratch that idea then. I just saw a 1GZ-FE engine in a Lexus that had ITBs. Thought it would be pretty cool.

IIRC I was looking at Google images of 1GZ-FE swaps and saw it. Maybe try that one. It was in a thread on a Lexus forum.
