In time. When I get the money I plan on building a pro-touring 68 barracuda with LSx power and t56 6 speed. It wont be for a while, but it will happen, unless I find a screaming deal on a AMX than I will have to go into witness protection to avoid assassination attempts.

A Pantera would be pretty sweet, too bad theyre so expensive.

A Delorean would be cool also, that turd renault motor in them doesnt do the rest of the car justice. They need to be fast and they are not in stock form.

I'm biased towards the 3rd gen Fbody LSX swaps, even if they aren't the most original and unique LS-swapped creature out there. I have loved the design and styling of these cars since I was little, and having one with the power of a 6.0 LSX is a great feeling (once it's done anyways).

Im going to be swapping my 400hp LS1 and 4l80e into my 73 Lincoln Continental Coupe. The best part is the 300 weight save over the 460

I had a '85 Celica with an LS1, that car was a lot of fun. Nobody saw it coming and lots of people gave me odd looks when I blew their doors off.

The one I am contemplating is a 6.0 swap into a Pontiac Fiero with a Six speed trans from a Pontiac G6 GXP. I want a Ferrari killer.
