Anyone looking for a voodoo v8?

[danmas]

Unsure if this would fit, but I imagine it could be made to fit considering the whole Godzilla approach. Seems like a good deal right now... Could change as the auction moves along...

They've been installed before

They’re dimensionally the same as a Coyote.

I'm an owner of a GT350...Voodoo V8. From what I've read (looking at you Paul/edwardb), the Voodoo would fit in our cars, but the amount of engineering that went into the Mustang chassis to counteract the vibration from 8250 RPM makes it mostly inviable in the FFR lineup. I can say that Im disappointed in the GT350. While it's a fantastic handling car, the power curve is shifted way too high, such that you can't really enjoy the 526hp until 5000+ rpm, which isn't easily achievable on the street. I'm coming from a C7 Z06, so I'm used to torque down low. I now have the Mustang under cover and Tender until Spring, when I intend to sell it and get a C8 Z06.

Amazing level of knowledge on this forum.

Here is an option that is a bit more tame.

I asked my wife if I could have this and she said no. Sigh.

I'm 3 hours from Omaha. If you can turn that No into a Yes, I'll go pick it up for ya, and keep it in my shop till we can meet up. :)

Wait. What? You can store a literal tank for me? Maybe the wife will never need to know. <Furiously researching bitcoin transactions >

[gbranham]

Hah! Well, I was referring to the small block Ford link, but if you bought a tank, yes, I'd find a way to make it work!

[danmas]

Ah. No, I don’t want the 302. The tank on the other hand….

[gbranham]

That tank has a 1647 cubic inch engine. Giddyup!

I happen to have a brand new Sherman tank engine from World War II in my hangar. It is still packed in cosmoline in the crate. Hmmm....if I wasn't already installing a Godzilla......

Take a hard look at the E-Ray over the Z06 I had my mind set on the Z until I saw the E

I've been contemplating just that. I've driven a C8Z, and it was great, but I've talked to several folks who switched from a C8Z to an ERay and like it better. I'll have to get some seat time in one.

Keep in mind that due to the flat plane crank a Voodoo running through roadster sidepipes will sound like a Honda with a fart can exhaust. When Erik built FFR's Voodoo engined '35 pickup that's exactly what it sounded like until he added an "X" pipe. Kinda' hard to do an "X" pipe on the roadster or Coupe...
