Twin Turbo??

have a '84 T/A (which lacks a engine and transmission), this is my project car and I am planning on building a twin turbo motor, I have been looking for a LS1 or a motor from a newer corvette. So my quesiton is, will a V-8 (in general) fit inside the engine bay with the turbos? ?

If money is no object you could always get the LS1/LS6 and the supercharger for that and shove that in there.

Then go Viper hunting........

the real question is after completing a whole engine swap are you going to want to build a turbo set up or buy a supercharger set up that will simply bolt in?
