its definatly different, but i bet it looks crazy, like "wtf is that" when people see it?

I like it allot. I am not a fan of half breeds but the blower makes up for it. There was a guy here a while back that had a sbc in a fox body. It looked like there was much more room under the hood with the sbc then a sbf.
Do you have any track times or more pics?

I have plenty of pics of the install and all... Just shot primer on the thing last night. It is installed with CE front motor plates welded to the frame. You can pretty much put the motor wherever you want it. Loads of room, but I still had to get headers built for the thing.

oh yeah forgot... I took it to the track but only got one pass. Track closed after that. It was made on street tires, and my shifter broke on the way up there. Started popping out of gear in third bouncing off the rev limiter and backfiring the whole time...

8th mile 8.092 @ 92mph

I am thinking it will go a little faster than 7.50's on the street tires. I know as soon as I put the slicks on it, the stock axles will break so we will hold off on that for now ;-)

Oh, anda question for you guys.... I need hints on keeping this thing cooled off. I have electric fans on the front and back, and as you can see in the picture, I have fiberglassed a scoop into the bumper to help force air into the radiator. What else can I do to keep this thing cool on the road? Do those additives work taht I see in jegs? The water pump seems to pump plenty and I have huge radiator...

I used water wetter and noticed an improvement in cooling. I think Royal Purple makes something called Purple Ice or something, but I never used it.
