Sweet project. I want to score a dirt cheap 5.3 and see how cheap I can build a car one of these days. I've got an AWD 90 Talon with the engine in pieces and an LS1/t56 sitting next to it and I just keep thinking about putting it in lol. I don't want to destroy an AWD Talon though. Maybe I'll come across a cheap enough turbo FWD car, swap the engine into the AWD car, and put a 5.3 in the FWD car. Yeah that's it....that's the ticket!
