Well, to get things back more onto Shelby Dodge turbos, I'll point out that the comments Stefan made below illustrate one of the larger advantages to a twin engine AWD setup. Each of the trannies was designed to be strong enough to handle the whole car on its own, so two means the whole setup is

Just thinking out loud here but wouldn't a dual engine car need to be set up perfectly to handle well? What I mean is, you may need to somehow link the two outputs together so that the transmission of power is equal to the front and rear. If the rear is pushing slightly harder in a turn than

I'm thinking now that those aftermarket gauge cluster packages from Autometer and other companies (that includes tach and speedo, oil pressure, water, etc.) is a good deal, and would make mounting, say above the glove compartment and at an angle (say 35-45 degrees), a snap, and cover your
