F430 drivetrain in a Corvair and a Ferarri 599 engine in a 69 Camaro Another would be making a Cobalt SS RWD and throw in a straight 6 out of a Trailblazer thats been boosted to hell and let the Supra boys feel the wrath.
Last one lol 3.8 buick motor swapped into a 240sx.

Last thing I built in college: carbon fiber monocoque with blown+EFI+alky 600cc. Weighed about 500lbs wet. 1000cc would have been a lot more fun!

Well, I had been thinking of a few swaps for a while now.

Probably the #1 non-LSx swap would be a supercharged, DOHC 4.6 Modular and TKO 5-speed in a 65-68 Mustang

Then I was, at one time, thinking putting a 2.3L Ford Turbo in an MGB or a subaru Flat 4 in a Porsche 914.

Right now, though, I'd go for an LSx in a C4 Corvette.

Once Uncle Sam tells me I can go back to America, I may be able to buy one of these cars.

Maybe a 1963 Lincoln Continental convertible. The one with the suicide doors, same model JFK was assinated in.

Color scheme would have to be white on white leather with a white top.

Motor would be a modern fuel injected, ford supercharged 5.4 V8. Basically the motor out of a Ford Lightinging, with the same overdrive automatic tranny. This heavy beast would run 11's and be perfectly streetable as well.:bow:

Now that's an idea with a tube frame. Oh yes !!!

59 caddy convert in pink, blue, stin black, or prolly any other color like so:


plus



with arizona speed and marine fuel injection and 2 turbos. WOuld have to have leopard or other animal print interior, and have to be LOW. Definately Tub the back for some tire, and make it a true rocketship.

Or possibly a:


with a:


The rule keeps me from talking about my ttls1 astro awd project idea.... shucks

1. '89-'91 K5 Blazer With a LQ9/built 4L65E/203-205 doubler/D60 front/14BFF and some flexy leafspring suspension front and back running 46" Mickey Thompson Baja Claws with only about 7" of overall lift.
2. '01-'03 Ford F350 Superduty crewcab longbed SRW 4x4 with a commonrail('03-up)Cummins diesel and Allison LCT1000(Duramax)trans in it.

I would have to go with a 3800 series II supercharged engine with some work to get it up in the 350hp range in a Fiero GT. Probably a smaller pulley, some different rockers, and maybe some heads, along with a custom exhaust would get me close.

Then, I'd just have to find a way to get it to hook up in first or second gear.

THeres a guy from around here that has just that except with more mods i would guess closer to 400 hp and he hooks hard but the problem is he cant keep a transmission in the damn thing

Staying with "the rule":
1) My '83 s10 blazer with a ZZ572
2) Same vehicle with a Duramax and Allison trans.
3) Swap 1 but mid-mounted (true fantasy swap, lots of money and fabrication)
4) Swap 2 but mid-mounted (I don't think the allison would be possible in this case)
Breaking "the rule":
1) An engine as close to the LS7.R that I could get built by Katech in my blazer
2) same engine, same builder, same blazer . . . mid-mounted.

Can you tell that I love my blazer?! I have other fantasy swaps, but my blazer is the only important one to me.

I've heard you can use a porsche 5 speed transaxle in them, supposedly pretty strong.
