RE: Twin 16v Motor pics and site

["Fry, Larry" <LEF@chem-tronics.com>]

I doubt the power.  Traction will be there.  My 1100cc Suzuki does 0-60 in
about 4 seconds and extrapolating the horsepower-to-weight ratio would mean
the twin-'Roc would have to make well over 400hp to equal that 4 seconds.
3.1 seconds?....I'd guess that would take about 250hp from each engine.
Possible, but not likely.

That's a cool project! But 3.1sec 0-60? Optimistic at best. I don't doubt
the power: I doubt the traction! Still, even if it's "only" 4.0sec, that's
fast enough for me.

I wonder how the rear suspension looks. If you do take more pics, make sure
you get some of that!
