I'd like to see an inline 6 road race car out of it. Would be interesting to see how it handled with all that weight pulled off the front. And if you could get 400 hp, why not?

OHC 6cyl
Man I would do the 6cyl. I always wanted to build a GM turbo 6 just like the Toyota Supra. I was out riding in my deserts around my house and there is a complete one sitting under a couch. Those are rare and with a Fast EFI and a snail at it's side you could have a real unique sleeper. Heck maybe you could throw flames out the tail pipes. Plus get good MPG's. Do the 6 scrap the 8.. My 2 cents

When I built the Road Race car I built it around FIA 3.1 class rules which is 366 cu in max. But, we came close to building an OHC Sprint 6 I have for the 3.0 310 cu in class. Bored and stroked we could have gotten over 300 out of the Sprint 6

I'm still talking with the guy about the Sprint Bird, he's asking a bit much considering how many mods I plan on doing to it.
Thanks for the input guys, I think it'd be a unique build for sure.
