Interesting.
It would be tight against the chassis side rails buy the looks of it.
Personally and IMHO I've never been a fan of force charged RV8 engines spoils the sound and the feel of the engine. I drove an early SD1 with this set up as the original Vitesse was destined to be a Turbo but the programme got canned in favour of the EFI. It was a hoot to drive - lots of 'kick in the back' which was accompanied by lit up rear tyres but I still prefer the progressive push in the back and roar of an NA big cc, big cam Rover unit as per the SEAC. Cracking unit with the Auto in a series 1 Range Rover.

Got to say it looks very tidy. It's an old set up and also a 'suck through' design. Has rotomasters on it.

Common in (sale room) auctions - need to get the punters going at a low price and hope they accelerate past the reserve - Streaky

Worse still is the
"I Reserve the right to withdraw the item from the auction so hit the 'buy it now' button" tactic.
