    Should be interesting - so what are the aftermarket performance parts options for these things? Couldn't really find anything on google last night. Also, how much longer are we talking here? 1-2" or so?

        it's basically two m20b25 welded together......for lack of a better explanation. most any of your m20 parts would probably switch over to a point.

          Any friend that would make you think about an M70 is, at best, a frenemy.

            Few parts swap over, actually. The plug wires, cap and rotor do, but that's about it.

            It is built with the same bore, stroke, and bore spacing as an M20, though.

                That's looks great! How is the car going to handle with the extra weight in the front?

                          Not a fan of m70s but that m.f.er is gorgeous.
                          I want a nice set of smoked MHW's (I know, get it line)

                            Just to clear out those weight numbers ,, take a look

                            M70 is ,, 155kg 341lbs

                            S54 is ,, 148kg 326lbs

                            S38 is ,, 151kg 332lbs

                            As i had S38B38 in the car .. for 6 years the weight difference is zore to none

                            thank you for kind words,, to be honest i really like this combo my self,, i will use 4HP24 at first ,, and as soon as possible G-560

                                Thanks,,

                                but i would consider that,, 300 ponies and 332 lbs/ft

                                and the v12 is a 60° and dead easy to install.. but you must use 750 master etc etc

                                and cut off the pipes 3-4" from the exhaust ,,
                                i will write up when installing
