Guest Battle Pope Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I don't know if I like that hood, but I do like the car overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80LS1T Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Looks like a mess under the hood! Not to mention the 4.6L is a pooch to begin with and costs a pretty penny to mod. Not my ideal choice of engines but its still a cool swap. Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 should have put the turbo hood on there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datsunlover Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 Well, I'm not keen on the hood scoop either, but I thought it was something different, and therefore worthy of posting here.. Just one of the things I've come across lately, searching the net doing research for my V8 RX7 project. I assume the guy got the 4.6 cheep/had it laying around.. I wouldn't go looking for one. (I'm doing a 350/700r4) Hopefully I won't need such a gigantic hood scoop on mine.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
