Was just looking to see if anyone had turned two 4ages into a 3.2L V8 when I found this interesting idea, worth a read

Reminds me of the twin engine AE92 Corolla wagon in Jamaica, using two 4A-GE 20v Blacktop turbocharged engines.

Also on High Octane Detonate they had an AE82 liftback with two 4AGZEs i think, about 350hp each set up for drag racing

Didn't run rotarys as mentioned there. Iirc it was running a 1600 turbo on on axle and a 1800 turbo for the other two :lol:

I remember seeing that at the 1st goldrush hillclimb , your correct on the motors Revhead , and I remember Dave and Graham ( both scrutineers ) saying that it wouldn't pass our club level scrutineering due to dodgy welding ( inc roll cage ), engine mounts etc . It was a pretty cool idea though.

In the late 70's we, at Kapiti CC, used to run a gravel sprint called Sweetman's Drive renowned as the fastest gravel sprint venue in the NI. (It later became the driveway to the Paraparaumu Lion Park).
One year a bloke turned up in a cut'nshut Mk3 Zodie with dual rear axles.
In the middle was a small bridge which this car collected and literally broke in half and he careered down the road with only the front wheels contacting the ground.

Twin engined race & rally cars are nothing new. There've been many, some even by factory teams.

Yep, its a pretty close fit, bit of modification but can be done.
