Import motor swap?

thats becuase its a Talon it a "American Car" oh wait it has a mitsubishi motor in it... oh and isn't the same thing as a Eclipse... oh wait its Japanese...

and you told them it broke! shhhh! so you just need to ad anything running 6.98 is going to brake something.

btw nice time for that little 4G63!

 

This thread won't die!!!!!!! Who cares what motor you out IN YOUR CAR. If you saw it at the show we would all say "Wow that's cool" then as we walked away we would say bad things about it.

Personally with gas prices some of these small but powerful engines might be a great choice. At least you would be able to drive it more often

 

I dont know why everyone is so bent out of shape about this thread. These cars are mavericks not mustangs so its not like they are worth anything.

 

Wow, sure was a nice day in Pittsburgh today!

 

nice day here too,....

I took a bit and re-read thru the entire thread,....pretty fun stuff.can we bring this one back for a bit?

 

Sounds like fun to me. :evilsmile

 

I saw a Gremlin once with a hemi....

 

i'd rather have a late model import with an old american engine then an old american car with an import 4 cylinder.


ive always had the dream of picking up a 2 door corvair h/t and stuffing a 455/toranado trans axle in the trunk. then i gurss i'd have to put a grill and radiator up front since they were air cooled i believe.

 

That has been quickly changing in recent years and is not so true anymore.

 

Or a Caddy 500 from a 70's El Dorado, that'd be awesome!

 

ive been looking to get my hands on one of those as a matter of fact. I think my regal could use the good ol 8.0 under the hood.

 

My grandpa has a '73 Coupe DeVille with a 500. My great, great Aunt bought the car new, only has 32,000 original miles on it. She was one of the well spoken little old southern lady types, and she believed "every proper southern lady should drive a Cadillac". She died back in 1989, but I'm here to tell ya, That big old boat will burn the white walls all day long!

 

I think I`ll build a totally tricked out Harley.....And put a Vespa scooter engine in it.

 

yea i'd love to have one of those. a guy on an olds site i go to put one in his cutlass after he stroked it bored it to like 580 or something insane like that

 

I had a 75 Coupe De Ville. I traded it for a dog and $275.
The 500 was scary smooth and strong.

I was wondering about a Mustang 6 or even 4 cylinder and tranny from a late 80s/early 90s. The horsepower is similar to my 302(135hp)
