I saw both pictures with the nissan twin cam motor, and pics that looked like an MGB cross flow setup with a turbo... how did that work out? obviously you decided to swap to the nissan motor instead, but did you have much luck with that setup?

The motor ran strong. It was expensive to build that way I probably had upwords of 15K in that motor and only got close to 175RWHP. The Nissan engine gives you that in bone stock form. Right now Im at about 208 rwhp with 9psi of boost. With larger injectors and a boost adjustment it could be in the 250 to 275 range and still run on pump gas.The Nissan engine is more cost effective and gave me room to go up if I so desired. I still have several of the peices to make the MGB setup go. Exhaust manifold, down pipe, intake, distributer, oil pan, pistons and a few other items. The ECU, Crossflow head, turbo, block, and crank are long gone.

Nice.

Is this still a project car? I saw a lot of cool pictures, but none of a completed vehicle.

I had the car repainted after a unfortunatne shipping issue. I need to put It back together from the repaint. It is being sold as a COMPLETE turn key car. It might need a set of tires other than that it was a daily driver up until I bought a new car. There are a few people that post here that have ridden in the car and can attest to its dynamic personality!

I am selling the car becouse I need capitol funds to buy equipment for Custom Rod Works. I HATE to sell it as it has been a great project.

that's a great deal for someone with the money.

Todd is a very straight up guy. I bought a good number of parts from him, and was treated fantastically. I have no doubt that all about the car is exactly as stated.

Very impressive car. I first saw it here:
