LS6 in a Volvo wagon. Yeah, I'm weird.

Rotarydragon 05-30-2002 04:41 PM

Jag XKE in a morgan roadster was something I always thought would be a lot of fun. . .. .

[QUOTE]< I can tell you a 5.0 fuel injected ford is a very easy swap in those cars.

Rob x-7 05-30-2002 06:36 PM

I wonder what happened to that MX-6 with the big block, tube frame, narrowed rear, fiberglass body???

dac 05-30-2002 07:05 PM

13B in a Suzuki Sidekick? Nahh been there done that.



The ultimate car is of course a Porsche.



So how about a Subaru Turbo 4 or 6 in a 911/930 Porsche (2100 lbs of terror).

wdwflash 06-01-2002 10:32 AM

12cyl Rolls-Merlin(P51 mustang engine)in a '38/39 Chev/Ford/GMC cabover truck. Once saw one in a semitruck(cab part/tractor only), at a drag strip. It had NOS, 10 tires, threw two foot flames from all 12 stacks and was even fast down the strip. With a good turbo set up your looking at 2000 to 3000hp!:-)

TalonTSi90 06-01-2002 10:06 PM

Mmmmmmm..........Hemi

Mmmmmmm..........Talon

Awwww man!! No AWD??

yayarx7 06-03-2002 12:27 AM

LS6 motor, in a classic lieghtweight car, like the 74 corolla, or the r100, maybe the datsun 510.

Turbo III 06-09-2002 12:29 AM

A supercharged 4-rotor, rear-engine, AWD Lotus Espirit.



Or...an early 1960's Aston Martin Volante powered by a Viper V-10, rear or mid-engine. (Old James Bond Car https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR



Or...Acura NSX with a tri-turbo 20B.

Dave12A 06-20-2002 09:34 AM

A Lotus Seven with a 13B TT

winger 06-20-2002 09:38 AM

454 6 pack in a shopping cart with slicks

Twin89Stangs 06-20-2002 12:25 PM

How about an L88 in a Mini?

wanna race me in my shopping cart?

13b1stgen 06-20-2002 12:42 PM

miata with a 20b and a 6spd



ford cortina with a 13bt



1966 ferrari gto w/ 26b.........damn that would rock



and finally my all time wet dream would be a shelby cobra replica car with a 20b turbo

Twin89Stangs 06-20-2002 12:43 PM

damn man thats Sacrilege there!!!



Thats like putting a honda B16a2 into an FD!!!

Twin89Stangs 06-20-2002 12:47 PM

Just think about it 427 Cubic Inches of 60's horsepower and torque!



550-600 Straight from Chevy!! Back in 67!!!



I would race a mini with that L88 in it against your shopping cart! Lol should we race to the grocery store???

13b1stgen 06-20-2002 01:07 PM

you might think its sacrilege but if you think about it that huge 427 makes the cobra front heavy but a 20b would lighten it up and let it rev much higher which for road racing ( which is what the cobra was designed for ) would be much better but its just a dream

Rotarydragon 06-20-2002 01:21 PM

One of these days I WILL buy one of those 32 Ford Vicki fiberglass kits and put a rotary in it. Just a matter of when https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



Rotary in a VW Bus. Hrmmm...

Twin89Stangs 06-20-2002 03:07 PM

No argument over that......

It would be pretty cool.... but you also forgetting that the 427 is what makes the cobra so great... Not until recently did a car finally beat it! It took 30 years for a car to beat it! the car that beat it? Viper GTS-R

0-100-0 barely just barely knocked it out.



The torque in these cars is unbelievable! A mechanic I use to know had built a replica of one and he had it pushing right arounf 570 something at the wheels. It has been a while but he took me for a ride once. Almost any gear puts you back in the seat. His 5th gear felt more like my 1st or 2nd in my stang! lol



But it would be sweet!!

lol if ya do it build a replica of one!!! lol

Though for the price I doubt you could find a real one....



lol but if ya going to go rotary why not the 26b? lol



HELL YEAH!!!

Got to love those high rpm screamers.. I hate red lining right around 6k right now.... I love being in the high rpms I love slamming it into the next gear winding it out to 7-8k and then shifting again!!

SnowmanSteiner 07-13-2002 03:02 AM

I'd take a ******* blown Hemi Big block stuff it in to a Del Sol and make it real weel drive. I'd probably shoot too. Mabye 250 shot. That would get it pumping.

rotarychainsaw 07-13-2002 01:50 PM

How about the V8 from the 360 Modena in an FD. Theres a real V8 swap. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/devil.gif

Shane.Trammell 07-13-2002 02:48 PM

ill take the LS1 with the porsche trans in the ultima gt. Or maybe just a stock mclaren f1

Twin89Stangs 07-13-2002 02:50 PM

Or maybe something a bit milder....

like an SHO 3.4 V8 supercharged in a Probe or late model MX6...



Or an SHO 3.4 V8 in a Contour!



Hey either of those would be pretty damn fast!



I had thought about trying to put one of those into my 2.3 stang!!

But it is most likely too costly!

Shane.Trammell 07-13-2002 03:08 PM

how about a 502 rat in a 2 door metro or a yugo??

Twin89Stangs 07-13-2002 03:43 PM

Shane there is a guy here in st.louis running a GM 502 Crate motor in a yellow 2 door Metro.....

7mech 07-13-2002 05:20 PM

How about twin big block 454's in a gutted full size yellow school bus that runs a 12.6 1/4 pulling a wheely the whole way down the strip? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png

Volodkovich 08-01-2002 03:19 AM

well...i know of MG Midgets with 12a's here in nz...and yes, they beat most things around a tight track https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

for me, i would have to say a lotus 7 styles kit car with a highly tuned 13b in it...like 500hp, nice and light...and that would out accelerate everything on the road - the good ones only weigh 400kgs (like 1000lbs) with a **** toyota 4age in them...and the catherham ones with 200hp go from 0-60 in like 3.5seconds, and 0-60-0 faster than ferrari f40's...

the scary thing is that i think im going to be finding myself making one of these...

In australia theres one of these kit cars with a s2000 engine that easily beats all the racing porsches....

Fluke_SDS 08-01-2002 06:38 PM
