The build thread is over on the 'other' Ford site,this is the smaller R&D build...
http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=11361872 Jeff may get a chance to transplant it here. With a built engine (such as yours) and a bigger turbo anything the high side of 750-800rwhp is feasible.

Interested to hear the washup with the B&H supercharger kit when you get the chance.

Yeah that would be my suggestion, I would talk to CMS First and see if they are prepared to help, otherwise off to Streetbuilt. Nice pair of turbos will do a good job.

This is more of a daily driver than a drag or dyno build.

I wouldn't be concerned with using a 205cc on a 363ci... I don't believe that 'lag' would be a problem with the correct sized exhaust housing. The next installment of XH5LWEPN's XH will be a similar combo to yours, 363, AFR 205s but now a blow through carb & turbo rather than the KB blower.

Yeah, last I saw he had the KB on there (I've been AWOL for a while). What happened to the KB?

Otherwise, to stick with a PD type supercharger is going to mean a LOT of custom fabrication (intake, blower snout & drive, pullies, brackets etc...)
A Whipple or TVS2300 would be great to see, but an expensive exercise to fabricate from scratch.

Several different plans & combos were thrown about, but the KB ended up selling to a friend of his, likewise the original AFR headed 5.0 which is now in another XH ute over here. The KB is going onto an EL with a TFS headed 347.

Brad,
any possibility of mustang style kits from the US. A nice KB maybe? or http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORD-WINDSOR ... vi-content ???

Yeh, I didn't think about Windsor turbo manifolds from the US.. I wonder how much clearance we have in the Falcon engine bay compared to the stangs. I'll have a bit of a dig around and see what'ts out there - basically looking for a US/V8 version of Snort !
I started off looking at KB... unfortunately they haven't upgraded the GT40/Explorer based blower or kit to be in line with their newer modular kits - so no intercooling, reasonably old school and inefficient head unit and also possibly a bit on the small side for the 363 - which was the whole reason I tilted towards spending twice the cash for a B&H TVS2300 based kit. I can buy a TVS2300 from Harrop which will line up, throw it onto a carby manifold (with modifications) and blow in lots of hot air - but I'd really prefer do this properly and intercool it. I must say the Streetbuilt Single turbo set is seriously appealing. It's neat and ticks all the boxes, except having full boost at idle, but I dare say my chances of going PD are well out the window.

The 363 Dart arrived at Sydney airport late last week, took a couple of days to get the customs paperwork sorted, but all good. If I had an ecoboost engine I could've just brought it across from the US myself
Anyway, delivery to Crescent Motorsport was successful, photos to come.
