That car is going to be sick all said and done. Curious to see what kinda of 1/4 mile times it will pull.

i have been itching to do this to my 93 coupe.

For pan clearance, can you shim the motor up??

 

[Mr. Mach-ete]

Wow, that thing should hall balls!

[AlabamaSlammah]

Very nice, this is gonna be awesome!
I'm curious to see what has to be done wiring-wise, and getting the accessory drive working.

HEY, I KNOW YOU!!!.....well its been awhile and all, but U must give me a ride =D!!!! I will say this new project of yours will be sooo Sweet!!!!!! I see your still have your notch. That car of yours is in excellent hands!!!

I plan to buy one a 93 notch next March and possibly do the same swap, hatches are just too common.

Also where is your welding gloves!!! I just bought a Hobart 187, and no gloves when welding hurts! (Got a pair now though)

Awesome.
Glad to see someone doing this swap and taking the time to take pictures. Thanks for posting this, please keep this thread updated throughout the build.

On a little rant, people who have videos in their sigs, suck.

Can't wait to see it when it's done. I wonder what it will do with a stock motor in the 1/4 mile.

Im betting with the right driver it should pull at least one high 11 second pass.
