so anyways, i think the deciding factor for me in this single/duel engine debate would
be daily drivability and if you wanted to put the car on the road and/or retain a
stock or near stock appearance. or if you were strictly using this as a racer. it
would be hard to keep a stock looking car with the dual engine setup(unless of coarse
the original purchaser opted for the heat retardant tonneau cover). now the 3.3 isnt
exactly a stock motor in the daytona but its no engine in the trunk. also, both setups
may be difficult to get past a safety check unless you did an extremely good job on
the fabricating. im not sure if the twin engine would even be legal. you would have to
do the swap on a car that is already on the road. the other thing i thought of was
that i cant see the twin engines lasting very long when they are competeing against
each other if they arent really close to running the same. i think the best plan would
be to have both engine as completely stand alone units,!
aside
from the accelerator cable and maybe battery. i think it would probably be best to
have seperate auto shifters so you could put one of the drivetrains in neutral while
driving. that way you could switch between fwd, rwd, or 4wd. also since everything
would be redundant, this would be the most reliable car ever built. just think, if one
drivetrian had a problem, just pop the tranny in nuetral and pull or push it home with
the other engine. no tow truck required.lol.
