The hardest part of turboing an egas is the mixer....

I would go SVI then Turbo.....

But even SVIing a Egas would be fun....
You would have to change the ECU, Engine Loom, Throttle Body etc (get it programmed to run on the ECU by Ford)

The reverse has happened to me, ive been annihilated by a s**t 70's chrysler covered in dents and primer, mismatched mags and what have you with mental 440 Hemi in it.


A 440 hemi????? Hemi's were 331, 392 or 426 . 440's were wedges.


just means stroker man ;)
Actually this guy is my mate now, has been for 12 years He and his brother are more horsepower freaks than car freaks if you know what i mean, their cars always look like pieces of s**t but go like the clappers.
Man these motors are pretty entertaining, i swear if there were more around like sbc and 5L windsors people be on to them.
incidently you can just bore the 426 to 4.32 to get 440 but apparently stroking is the better way.
