      I haven't ever seen that swap. What kind of power are the twin turbos making (assuming one is finished)? Looks like it would be interesting, but fitment would be snug for those turbos and from that first picture it looks like a cowl hood would be on the build list. I'm not sure that I would like a supra with a cowl. Especially yours, since it is still very clean as far as exterior mods go.

        they made 724rwhp at only 24psi and one guy made 463 Naturally Aspirated with a a bunch of mods.........surprisingly the stock hood fits.....just in that pic the motor isnt fully sitting where it supposed to be makin it look like its high up.

            That's not an American V8. That's Toyota Thundra. It's an awesome engine.

            It must be a sight to see it in a Supra.

                      I guess our cars are Canadian Muscle then... which would explain why most of the cars on this forum run in the 15s.

                      Back to the supra... it sounds like a badass swap. You would still have a ton of power to the ground, but not as much lag to get there.
