interesting...it MAY fit with a big enough cowl hood and I think it'd be good to stick the turbo through the top of the hood, too...(that's the redneck in me). -

I have this condition, where I perceive OEM parts as 'broken' and in need of aftermarket replacement.

okay got deminsions of the 4BT the height of the engine is 36.16 inches(893.1 mm)
the length of it is 30.12 inches (765.1 mm) , and the width is 23.33 inches (592.6mm)
I was told in another forum that the 4BT can take 45 PSI of boost before the headbolts start to stretch and it blows the gasket.I wonder if that is right? I was thinking about two turbos so would a compound turbo setup or a twin turbo setup be better for overall street driving then turn them up a little and go drag racing on the weekend. -

I think a V-8 model would be better for fitment. Although not as popular as the Cummins, an alum. V-8 would be lighter and easier to fit in theory. -
