GXNOS on here did an On3 Kit on an 86 shortblock with E7 heads and mass air EFI. he laid down like 435 wheel hp with it. It was a fun street car, and he was pretty happy with the kit

did he use a motor plate? because i have a tubular k member that the mounts were cut off previously for a chevy.. wondering if the turbo would clear the plate

I have a steel mid plate if you need one.

Pretty sure the turbo will sit right where the motor plate should be

but, usually you can lower the motor with putting plates on the frame rails, as well as you can notch out the plate if needed? im not talking about the huge motor plates people put on motors, the smaller ones.. aluminum also not steel.

Oh well not too sure then because I had an on3 on my mustang and it was a pretty tight fit. I guess just compare some pics of an on3 kit on a car with what you planned on doing with your car.
