13B with a t4...but i dont think it will work with a glide

 

won't make it 15 passes let alone 150.

LS/LQ or SBF. sorry, you're going to need to trade reliability for a little bit of weight on your budget. sure, you could do like some honda b18 or some shit with a refrigerator sized turbo on it, but you asked for it to last and cost normal.

 

Ls1 or ls2 with a cam. 400-430lbs will make easy 400hp. Looks like your wanting real light.. nevermind

Yes trying to get lighter than that.
Loved my LS, but looking for something different.

 

Actually AMC was going to use the Wankel in the Pacer. But GM sold the rights to it or something.
I kinda like those, but never worked with them.

 

Hyabusa with a turbo

 

OHHH that would fit in the back !!

 

http://www.team.net/sol/tech/engine.html this has a bunch of weights

 

4g63 or try a 4 cylinder sprint motor

 

Look up Zcars, I want to put a turbo busa in a classic mini.
So many ideas, so little money.

 

Chevy Vega L4 285#

So you just need to run like #20 of boost or spray 250 on it and you will be good on HP goals Not sure about the reliable part.

 

Whats this going in?

 

4g might be the easiest to work with...rearwheel drive auto

 

You have a slight problem...

Light as in lighter than any domestic small block. But to use with a powerglide.

In what car is this combo gonna be in?

2JZ-GTE can pair up neatly with a glide but its fairly heavy.

Toyotas 3S-GTE, Mitsus 4g63, Rotarys like 13b-20b will surpass the horsepower rating, but i havent seen one yet paired to a glide. mainly im guessing because of torque or drivetrain loss issues.

 

Mustang 4 cilinder turbo might work...

 

I have no problem with boost...no N20 for me. My car started with a Turbo 4.0 Jeep engine that went a best of 10.70.
But that thing weighed 40 lbs more than my LS.

 

The LS series Aluminum block engines weigh within 3 lbs of a 13B rotary turbo engine when you factor in the weight of the turbo plumbing. That;s why the LS is such a popular swap into last gen RX7's. Handling isn't affected as nose weight doesn't change.

 

Really?

 

GM Ecotec LNF engine. 260 HP stock and RWD in Solstice GXP and Sky Redline. Easy to mod to 400 Hp. Im sure a glide can be made to work behind it

 

Engine going in my AMC Spirit.
Engine compartment is pretty wide open

 

Don't mind the Predator carb
I have a Holley Dominator EFI

 

I heard the new 3.7 V6 mustang engine is pretty light all aluminum, and it has surpassed 400whp on stock internals. That could be easier to make it work with a glide than the 4 cilinder imports and the rotaries

 

High compression VQ35 will get you there pretty light or turbo it and have a good bit more power.

 

id try the Mitsubishi 4G63, just make sure u get a 6-bolt and rock out.

 

what about the 3.8 Buick V6? Maybe

 

My thinking as well. 400-500hp recipes are out there and not difficult.

 

5.0 Coyote. 444 lbs 412 hp and can deliver thousands of passes

 

turbo honda b series, but for that kind of power im not sure it can be cheap. 2.3l turbo ford. once again for the power im not sure it will be cheap

 

i think an iron headed combination long block will weigh around 400#

 

ecotech 4 seems like kind of a no brainer
