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.

People have installed 4.6 modular motors in Fox Bodies and they are pretty tall as well. Cowl hoods are an option as well. Probably won't handle well. Balance is key for that. It would probably get hybrid like mileage and pull hard to boot. An AOD can be made to handle the low Rpm torque if you didn't tow with it. The tires would break loose before the trans gave up. The rear ratio could be really tall. I think 2.73's are easily found in a junkyard.
