Outdated Rear wheel drive 5.7 Liter V8 for Soliad Wendover + stock/drift configurations 1.5

Update:

Hello folks, due to strange circumstances I posted 2 versions of this mod. I'd download the other version, which you should be able to access here: https://www.beamng.com/resources/5-...configurations-for-the-soliad-wendover.23807/ idk maybe that'll turn into a hyperlink when I post it, maybe it won't. Anyways, this version works, the exhaust is just slightly less janky, but still a little janky, in the other version I have posted.

Howdy folks, I always thought the Soliad Wendover deserved a little better than the vanilla engines, so I present to you my first mod: a lazy, 5.7 liter overhead valve v8 for the aforementioned vehicle(engine model is the same as the Soliad 4.4 v8, just rotated 90 degrees), with a transmission from the Gavril Grand Marshall. This mod is no doubt inspired by GBSTYR's Legran V8 mod, which came out a few days earlier than this and you should definitely check out. Sure, you could just use the vanilla transverse mounted V8, and the rear wheel drive transfer case, but this mod gives you an actual longitudinally mounted engine/transmission, and a slightly altered intake for the engine's position as well. There is a lot of jankiness if you look closely, as I am a novice and made this in all of 1 day. The intake and transmission have been rotated slightly, and the exhaust is a unique sideways system(hey, you gotta use your imagination a little here). Making a custom exhaust is a bit beyond my paygrade right now, but that's not to say I won't give it a try for the 5.7 v8 at some point in the future. However, against all odds, this mod does indeed work, and I do plan on adding a supercharger at some point. Hardly a bruiser in terms of speed, but enough low end torque to get out of it's own way. What even is high rpm power anyways. Ten configurations are included as well, both pre and post facelift Sport SE 5000 models, available in manual and automatic, as well as the more luxury focused SE 5000 models, pre and post facelift, and auto only. In addition, there are 2 drift versions, one more drivable than the other, and 2 special edition versions. Have fun drifting an Oldsmobile Toronado : )



Undercarriage of the funny car, unfortunately Soliad was only able to afford a single exhaust.



If you have the openable mod by Jamie599, all of the six v8 configurations come what that feature : )

The configurations also come with the New York license plate mod by Mario64iscool2, however no additional mods are required for this mod or any of the configurations to work.

To properly add the 5 liter v8 engine yourself without using one of the configurations from the mod, select the 5.0L Long V8 Engine under Engine in the parts selector, for the transmission select either 5-speed rwd v8 manual transmission or 4 speed automatic rwd v8 transmission under the transmission selector, make sure the car has a rear differential, and under the transfer case selector choose RWD Transfer Case Invisible. You can also select Stock Intake RWD under, you guessed it, the Intake Selector for one that fits the rwd v8 a little better.
