Cybermonkey24 - i have seen your post and i am going to look into this, have you any Info as getting a GM charger would be alot easyer, if i could get the Brakers aswell over your way.

yes the Omega was RWD but i will be keeping mine FWD for the reason i can not be arse cutting the inside/Bulk head i like the Inside of my car as it is. Theres a C20LET 4x4 BAT corsa being built already Phs 3.5, locking prop etc etc

power of the engine, well the company who want to do the charger for it said they will easy get 300bhp out of the standard 3lt V6 block so with the extra bits inside and NOS who knows (if i go ahead with the charger the car will be on the dyno alot so will have print outs).

as for room for the Charger, yes there loads as it sits over the drivers chass leg where the filter normaly sits so fitting eather will not be a problem.

The F28 is not new its called alot of time cleaning it the engine will look the same when finished, also thinking of cutting the full bulk head away in the bay as seen a Pic of the C20XE in a corsa last week on here and looks so tidy with out it on.

All in all its just another route not alot have people have done normal people throw money at LET's, the good thing about the V6 is even at 300bhp it will be reliablue as i have found most LETs at 300mark are not, maybe that cos people dont spend the money to make the LET reliablue they just want BHP numbers

sweet... will you be running up the strip @ PVS ??

if so i "might" run against you (if the cars working ok by then)

would be good to see the ThunderCorsa go against the BATmobile

Depends how close i cut it for finishing
last year i was up till 6:30 am and been working all night to get her finished for PV and dident finish it
BUT if i can get it all done with a week or so to run her in and get all the problems sorted then ye will run her up the 1/4
be good to see a V6 Vs LET

Thundercats Vs BATMAN

if we do i will get a 2 Big BATMAN logo's made for each side and put them on before the start

Beardy arent you concerned about the usaability of all that power, I mean comon 450bhp (maybe) in a very light front wheel drive car. Youre gonna need some special launch control to get of the line...

Why not put it in a slightly bigger car, but with that power you REALLY godda be thinking about 4wd...

is alot of weight over front wheels tho, should be amazing once its rolling and then foot is planted.

traction and handling is something you adapt too, doesn't make a car undrivable
