Whats your budget ?

The FE3 with a turbo is probably the best option....where do you get it...I'll let your fellow canadians answer that one....but probably any Japanese engine importer.

Check out the FE DOHC part of this site for more details, the work done on this engine by forum members is endless.

There is one guy who has recently pushed a early model 323 down the drag strip in under 10secs with one of these.

LS1

do it

**4cylfun** · 1-25-08, 17:56

ls1? how, wouldn't you have to cut up the frame to put a engine that big in. And unless you pulling from like an impala ss or somethig how would you make that a RWD
and why. The SS's (except the vets, tb's and others) have so much torque steer its stupid. Without tractions control on they can't go in a straight line from WOT. Actually just thinking even with TC on they can't go straight. The just kinda hop left and right.

use a b2200 truck tranny thats how I did my turbo truck! Its fast with a 2.2 turbo motor conected to the truck tranny! (I LOST SPARK AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT, help would be nice)

1.) Sell car or keep it as a daily driver. 2.) Buy something (preferably rear wheel drive) that has easy-to-get parts and would actually be worth putting a monster engine into.

Why LS1 when you can get a bigger badder LS7?

[fizzle] if we're going all out, quad-turbo'd W16 pushing over 1000whp

i wonder how many second it would take to twist the frame. I'm guessing faster than a stock bughatti in the 1/4

**TR-mx6** · 2-23-08, 16:58

a 12cylinder tank engine. I saw a bunch of vids with some seriously huge engines. Pull the firewall back and fit whatever you want. hehehe. Mig welders are the greatest thing that ever existed.

dude a mx-6 with an ls1

i just got a half chub thinking about that....

i know it would be a hell of alot more work than its worth.
and it prolly wouldnt run worth a damn.(unless u did find a way to make it all hook)

but damn that would be one fun [fizzle]ing car.
