LTD351, when you're done you can help me. :D

a mate at work is building a twin turbo 351.
once he's finished, we're thinking of doing mine.

what sort of power are you aiming for LTD351?

Wow this is mad.

I ( believe it or not :) ) am thinking of the same setup.

Big single turbo on an LPG 351.

Have you got any concerns about getting it engineered? ( you are getting it engineered arent you? ) Im in QLD and im pretty sure i can do this here.

What sort of power are you expecting?

I also have an XY GT Replica, 351 on gas which pumps out 320 rwhp. Runs great!

Cant wait to see your project complete mate.

it should pass, its on LPG so no immisions, its same engine capacity as before, its got a big brake upgrade so should pass brake test, so yeah I think it will be OK.

First off, bloody awesome.

LPG still has to comply with emissions, one of my mates had many runs on the Sydney EPA dyno with a straight LPG XD and failed big time.

yes i have some dodgy pics that I don't want you to see, it looks like turd, the car isn't that great, I am over the whole "paint a car so it looks pretty" thing, I would rather it be just primer with guide coat, but my girlfriend and some of my mates didn't like that idea, so its going two tone red top and silver lower, my choice was matt black or primer.
