Heres a car i've been testing with. Its AMT's 1966 Mercuy Cyclone GT. It still has the stock 390 CID Block, but it will have all scratch built pumbing, intake, etc. The only problem i had/have is making room for the large turbine, which required removal of the shock tower. I will have to design a new front suspension. I also lost the radiator

The old un-realalistic set up

Mike...whered you get that humungous turbo from? I want like 10 of them. The cyclone is a great car, and will be even better when you're done with it.
