Engine bay width

Recommended Posts

Hi all

Just doing some brainstorming for future projects

The question is , does anyone know the width between the shock towers on xw/y ? As I've heard it's a bit narrower than the later x series

Someone on here said they're as wide as a big block Hemi... Dunno about that but I'd imagine that it would make a sweet combo in a light body like that

Not easy but doable with an rrs kit and notched towers. There is a nice late model v8 that as good as fits straight in, cheap to buy too.

Yes but you may be lynched for dropping one of those into a sacred XW/XY, as good as those said motors are

Xw xy are narrower than xa onwards.

 

Yep you beat me to it. If anyone is planing on doing 4 liter conversion to a XW/Y note that the BBM will hit the shock tower and not clear.
