Does this mock up qualify as a German Look Ghia?

Awesome build man. Got room for 2 turbos off the ends of those manifolds? Also where did you source the manifolds from?

They came from the guys at Outfront Motorsports. John the owner builds Subaru engines for desert racing and has these headers for the EZ30 engine. My builder, Kevin is building the rest of the exhaust system and I sent him some Porsche black chrome dual oval tips to put it over the top.

The car probably has room for turbos but I think this motor may do well with a supercharger. No time soon though, as it's already going to be a beast naturally aspirated with the AVCS!

My opinion (and it is just that) is that it's too low, notch it up 50mm so that the wheels fill the arches and it'd be sweet

Looks pretty good going, that motor should make it shift

Alky, yes - I agree it's way too low in the mock up. This is just my artist's rendition. Your suggestion will be very close to reality.
