Length from the bell housing flange on the block to the front of the balancer/serpetine pulley: 25.5 inches

from bottom rail of block to highest point on the valve cover 21 inches.

I might be sticking this into a stock chassis if it looks possible.

Jaide I am going to go with the Audi transaxle. I am shooting for about 500+600 HP NA. I want a motor that will rev high. Should be able to make about 400lb-ft somewhere in the upper rev range, thus keeping the shock loads low on the tranny. I don't know that the Porsche trans axles is the way to go, Hell for 10K I could just start looking for a used LMP/GTP transaxel. I figure I can pick up Audi gear boxes for really cheap, cheap enough to pop a few in the learning curve.

Sammy

That bolt on Supercharger is 4000$. You want to know what kind of twin turbo Kit I can put together for 4000$. Custom stainless headers, dual intercoolers, all custom charge piping, Two ball bearing turbos. I can easily get 500+ extra HP from that little upgrade.
