Ideas for swaps other than a V8.

Whizbang · 07-16-2008, 08:34 AM

i have a few ideas, some have been mentioned, but at the same time, i already have engines and chassis floating around.

1. 2.3T. i have one engine at my shop, and another at my friends yard. I have been back and forth on using this thing, or just selling it seeing i got the whole thing for real cheap.

2. The reason i am not thinking about using the 2.3 is because i want to use the FE3. Sure, most people say it wasn't available here and only in FWD overseas. BUT it was the engine, in RWD format, in the 99-04 Kia Sportages that we find our 4.778 gears from.

why, well here is a comparison of Fe3 rods to Sr20 rods.

3. cummins? lol

I got my hands on a nice Mercedes turbo diesel 300dT with plans to
put it into an old fc I have but I fell in love with the Mercedes and ended
up swaping it to veggie oil
