For those interrested, I just added an album in my gallery showing the RWD SHO engine I've done so far. I finished the trans adapter today and finally have the engine and tranny mated. Tomorrow,I start making mounts.

that is some awesome Fabrication!

i dont really know anything about the SHO engines. What kind of power do they put out? I guess i am asking if it is worth all the extra work?

Although, it looks like you are good at fabrication!

Interesting. I love anything different, so even if its no difference in power it unique. You are not likely to see another one!

Sweeeeet!!! I have driven the Turbo Supercoupe T-Birds with that motor. Really fast. Great idea to put one in an F1. Although it will be almost lost in that caverous engine compartment.

SHO Engine

Thanks fellas. The engine is rated at about 220 H.P. and 200+ lb/ft torque. I think they both are in the 6500 to 7000 rpm range. The motor is able to rev at 9000 and the computer cut-out is set at 12,000 rpm. That's what caught my attention. Physically, it's not a whole lot smaller than the V8 flatty. I hope to have it setting on mounts some time next week. I'll post more pics then.
