man dont say i cant do it i was just asking what would have to be done for it mainly and to see what people thought about it. that statement kinda pisses me off ya know. I know im not the best of the best but ive got commonsense. Man im not scared to dig into anything just the moneys the issue with every thing like always.

sry to act like a dick n crap but it was just an opinion on it WHAT WOULD HAVE TO BE DONE
like tunneling, where to set the motor, what rad. fans, electrical stuff.

what happen to opinions on things, that are positive

if ya dont got anything nice to post just dont post at all

I just think that it would be a lot of time and money to put into something that is virtually worthless when your done and could never utilize most of the power it would contain. I recently traded my Mazda in the picture below for a Chevy with a big block and I have a few regrets about it. My Mazda had a 12a rotary and got with the program when I mashed the pedal. I now have to idle to work and back and still watch the gas gauge go down in the 4.6 mile round trip. If I do punch it the gas gauge moves noticeably and I am not even kidding. I also think you would have a ton of frame work to do just to fit that beast in between the rails. You would probably be better off making an entire frame from scratch as the stock one would pretzel the first time you blip the throttle. I don't want to discourage you , but sometimes there are good reasons why no one has done certain things to vehicles. I would Love to see one just to see the fabrication work done if it ever got finished, but I would still have to ask the person "why?". -Ed

yea true the fab work would prolly be alot just to stuff in in there. Plus the power it would have would make the frame twist an awful lot but i believe u could beef one up enof to stand the power. But before i would worry about that it would be the rearend staying togeather lol
