      Yes same car! Since the video Josh has added brakes, suspension, supercharger and some interior upgrades. Thanks for following!

    I have an LS4 swapped DeLorean, with a mild cam, ported heads, and mid-length headers. I am using the UN1, and I drive hard. The UN1 does just fine as long as you don't launch it hard or power shift hard.

      Yeah… to be honest, the engine for its time was actually better than anything offered by the big three and for its time, its acceleration wasn’t “that” bad… for a passenger vehicle… lol.
      And… the big V8 was not very popular that the time… just look at what happened to the Mustang, Cutlass, and others like the Bonneville.

      In 1981, there were 2 DeLoreans built with V6 twin turbos and twin intercoolers. This boosted the DeLorean’s top speed to nearly 150 mph, and reduced the 0-60 time by 4 seconds (9.5 to 5.5).
      DMC planned to order 5,000 such engines and offer them as a turbo upgrade to the DeLorean - but unfortunately DMC went bankrupt before that could happen.

    • @danielhenderson8316
      @danielhenderson8316 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They would go against DeLorean's desire for fuel economy. Without a Porsche engine (which I think they told him no), about the best non V8 at the time would have been the Alfa Romeo V6, but I have no idea if DeLorean tried to source any.

  • @Brian-bh2ix
    @Brian-bh2ix ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I am thinking Delorean Hellcat. Will definitely break the seats with that.
    Two questions though: the oil pan looked extremely low to the ground. Is that just an illusion? What about torsional stress to the frame? Does the increase in power require any frame bracing? I would think that even a tiny tweak to the chassis would render those doors inoperable.

    • @michaelmcelhattan7238
      @michaelmcelhattan7238 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hellcat motor could be done. Someone just needs to spend the money on the engineering. DeLorean frame has held up to many high HP swaps without issue.

    There is a movie named "fastest Delorean in the world" on Tubi where a guy decides to modify his Back to the Future style delorean to make it the fastest in the world.
    By the end of the movie the vehicle was indeed the fastest Delorean in the world with a 1/4 mile time of 12.29 seconds.
    Though by the looks of the Delorean in this TH-cam video, the guy in the Fastest Delorean movie may have to increase his efforts.
    This may become a yearly event, all modified Delorean owners meet at a drag strip and find out who truly has the fastest Delorean in the world.
    This could be extended to the fastest VW bus in the world because of the Libyan chase at Twin Pines mall...there is at least ONE VW bus with a 1/4 mile time of 11.422s which beats out ALL Deloreans!
