    700hp TT is a snap with a built motor

    Big difference with a 6.2 liter and blower at 700 + hp and a 4.6 liter and blower at 700 hp, I would imagine one becomes less daily driver ish

    Uh oh.... That does not sound good.

    Sourced some ModMax forged crank, pistons and rods. King Bearings, Melling oil pump, Arp bolts (God they are expensive!) Billet Flywheel for the 8 bolt crank.

    Considering Stroking to 302 CID. No extra cost, just different parts. Adds .207" to the stroke and .020 to the bore. Not real sure what the gain (or loss might be). Will shoot for 9.0:1 CR.

    I'm sure all this has been done before. The Twin Turbo comment, Oh yeah! I wonder if anyone has a setup they need to get rid of. I'm not putting myself through that process from scratch.

    Anybody ever put lake pipes on their Marauder??

    A used connecting rod failed, they were checked by my machine shop, and given a good bill of health, bent the rod end at the crank, and spun the bearing, literally 15 minutes later my freddy brown "race" transmission lost 3rd and 4th.. the story goes on..

    comming from multiple turbo setups from my talons the thought of turbo setups being a "hassle" is lost on me, I have always viewed them as a requirement of sorts

    I take my experience with turbos for granted perhaps. i understand space is an issue.

    After seeing Senecas crossmember cutout I got to thinking ....

    I wanted to do a custom center console for the manual swap and place the relocated battery box under the arm rest to keep the weight in the middle and if i need to jump the car I can do it with my Halo from the drivers seat....

    what rods are you considering for replacement?

    I have a set of molnar power adder rods I'm going to replace them with, I'm anxious to see your turbo build, be sure and start a build thread, my car was the 1st one I ever did, mostly all mig welded, I have done a 2nd car since then for someone else, that was all tig welded and back purged the way it should be, that one has roughly 15k miles single turbo setup

    I cheated on mine lol, went the "cheap" route to my goal. I've been right around the hellcat mark with mine at the track. I think with improved tuning and stepping down from 4.10s to 3.55s I might be there. It sure is fun beating the unsuspecting camaro, srt8, and coyote Mustang guys at the strip.



    I look forward to seeing updates on your quest.

    i think its the k member?

    instead of going with two half moon grooves for exhaust clearance I want to cut two holes right through with two thick aluminum tubes welded in for strength with plates on the top and bottom for added support. the sleeves need to match the sizing of the exhaust because i want the peice to act in part as a heatsink for the exhaust to assist in cooling.
