I've Got A 4.6 V8 Twin Turbo Engine From A Corvette, Will It Fit Into A Zx Twin Turbo?

God Damn those wheels look good...are they the 19" maniaracing vortex r that wheelmania have on ebay?

I was hoping to get some for my Zed....unfortunately it doesn't work so not much point!

 

Regards

Rob

Thats the ones, not bad eh?! Only 3 days old! Got a spankin price too! (Regular customer!) Bought directly from store though, not ebay, they're just up the road from me!

ehh no, not without serious mods to the engine bay I think and also would need bell housing complete with corvette gearbox...

I've got gearbox, all looms and everything else it needs to fit and run! Just wanted to know how much work the engine bay would need!

John Dixon, Friday and MantaV8 are the guys to speak to about V8 transplates in zed's. They are all curently doing v8 transplants on theirs.

 

Which year/model corvette is this out of ?

hey fingers, sorry about post hi-jack, how much u pay for wheels n tyres walking into store, as i live v close to store too :P maybe you could come with and get me same deal hehehe ?

i might be wrong as i dont even know what engine your on about,but i think a v8 4.6 TT will struggle to fit,then theres the engine mounts

I paid a straight £900 for 19inch, with tyres, balanced fitted etc! They even sprayed the tyres and made em shiny when they'd done! Would gladly come and get you a good deal!

Change of plans on the Vett engine, sold it for a pretty penny! My plan is now to add a further 2 turbo's, anyone know if quad turbo is possible on the zed?

also offered me 19in deep dish highly polished chrome official NISMO alloys if your interested! Serious rims! Retail at £5200, he'll sell me em for £3500 if your interested! With top brand tyres too!

why not just upgrade the 2 you have?

 

a quad turbo wont work for 2 major reasons

 

1. 2 turbos on each back, 3 cylinders....1.5 cylinders feeding each turbo :cry:

 

2. space :headvswal

mantav8 has a 5.7 bored to 6.0 in his so anything is possible!! :) prob the best person to speak to on this one!

Mr Boost, are you high? that was some technical sh*t! Nice one, but have absolutely no idea what you said!

lol bascially for a quad setup u need to be able to divide the number of cylinders by 4 and end up with a whole number :)

 

so its possible on a v8 and a v12 :) not a sixer.

How about two HUGE turbos, and a superchager to compensate for the lag in low down revs? Or would that not work :confused: ?

just antilag it with a big bottle of nitrous in the back :)

Ah, that made more sense! Need to drop a V8 in first then!
