the race car might get twin turbos
well it seems the big bore stroker motor has two much harmonics to run at 8000 rpm for long periods of time. i talked to sean hyland and he said to get rid of the stroker and run just a big bore motor. well my secondary sponser fatal performance builds the fastest street legal turbo stangs and the old 4.6 motor might be getting a pair of GT35R turbos.
were gonna give the BBS one more chance but if its spits the timing chain through the valve covers again its going up for sale.

RE: the race car might get twin turbos
I can't beileve I'm saying this, but have you ever thought of a KB setup?
If I was gonna have a road course car I think I would go with a KB. The down low torque of the KB would seem to be a big help coming out of corners?
Just a thought, I am far from a circut track racer

RE: the race car might get twin turbos
That BBS will work great with turbos seeing that you don't have to rev high with turbos. Stroker motors become unstable at high revs because the piston skirts come out of the bottom of the cylinder which cause vibrations. With a stroker you should not go above 6500 rpms. As said above a KB will work great because youdont have to rev high to achive max boost.
