Question: Would'nt it be more sensitible to use a diesal engine for this purpose? Low speed torque...etc

Hi Richard,
No the van is only about 1500kg. With 360 bhp I am hoping to Drag the 1/4 mile in under 16 seconds and top 101 mph.
I have the Porsche 964 engine to go in. I still have to decide on the Supercharger. If I cant find a way of cooling the charge I'm stuck.
The van isn't for general work, its a show van which will set me back the best part of ?60k to complete and thats with me doing all the work. Apart from the drag strip it also has to sleep both the wife and me on holidays.
Thanks for the reply.
Frank
