Default Re: turbocharged quad-4????

Thanks, Bob, for that interesting and eye-opening info.

Too bad they never put a pair of those Quad-4 heads on a V8... a "Quad-8"... what a concept!!!

I'm sure it would have made the engine too wide, BUT, a 60-degeree V8 with some balance shafts, and those heads might have been feasible

Oh yeah.... NORTHSTAR....

Leave it to Cadillac, who had two four-barrels in 1955, even before Chevy, to lead the way. I hear they're adding a blower to the Northstar, 4-valve motor, for a 600+ HP entry into the current horsepower race for 2008! Going into a 4-door sedan, I hear.

They're making it harder and harder for me to hit a "moving target," with my paltry effort, Vortech-inspired, street car... LOL!!!
