For alot of twin setups it would take a while to spool. A big single is also much easier to setup.

On V8's use 2 medium size turbo's will be virtually no lag.... buddies has very lil if any... but then again the motor makes up for a large part of it... It feels pretty smooth. But you can hear those turbos spool up REAL WELL!! See the boost needle climb to 25lbs. Its crazy!



But it doesnt make 1000+ hp

Custom built T56 6 speed transmission.



Can get the Transmission company's name if you wish.



He had an Art Carr C4 tranny in it before the T56.

What did he do to the T56? What kinds of revs does it handle with that power?

he doest dump it at high high rpms. But with the McCleod clutch (however ya spell it) It seems to hold up well. Been in there for about 1 and half years now I believe...



He custom ordered the T56 tranny from a company.. I forget the name but if your interested I can get ahold of him and ask.



But mainly... the gear ratios where changed. Not sure of what else was done to it. It obviously has a different bellhousing.



Actually he was trying to sell the car for a while...

high asking price!

Funny thing about it...



It looks like a stock LX 5.0

It has pony wheels (yeah try driving on those tires! hahaha)

Cobra grill insert

3 inch cowl hood (because of the heads and the tall BXR intake)



So it looks like a 5.0 LX with a cowl hood and big chrome pipes...



Not what it sounds like. But a sleeper none the less...



though at night you see all the damn guages in it!

This car when he had the Art Carr C4 tranny in it wanted to rip the tires off the car at 7500 rpms!
