i understand the whole unique aspect but at the end of the day its a boatload of wasted time only to go backward decades in technology.

My guess would be that it's just soft mounted for a shoot.
Sorry...not my guess, my hope.

Wondering when someone would do that, though a 3SG(T)E power would seem more appropriate given cars weight.

What the hell is the point to this? This thing is just a shell now, as soon as you rip the motor out of the car so goes the soul of it as well. Anyway with the amount of info from the first round of forced induction setups, isn't this kind of pointless the stock motor looks like it has balls all of it's own.
