    Redline will be 4000rpm.
    With that much displacement, plus twins, will the TH400 handle it?
    Whole lot of TQ down low.

    He'll need to convert the ENTIRE trunk, and a Panther has a BIG trunk, into a fuel cell.
    27 Liters fed by two turbos will consume a tad bit more gas than a N/A 4.6 Liter 2 valve....LOL
