ok im seriously thinking about doing engine/trans swap within a year...so what engines would work?? i would like a mustang engine but what are all the engines taht woudl work (V8)

any of the ford modular v8's work.

ok thanks...any engines besides ford?

im looking for a place to do this in my area and get the money :)

have you researched more into the kugel kit? i think they tell u what engines u can use

ok first question is how much of the car are you wanting to cut up and still keep focus about it? are you keeping stuff like power steering and ac? do you want fwd or rwd?

of the top of my head these will fit tho
5.0
2.5 v6
2.3 dura
4.6 mustang motor
4.6 terminator motor
chevy small block will fit
and an rb26.

If you swap in one of those Hayabusa V8 motors (on the website they have one bolted to a MTX trans) I will Paypal you $10 to help out!

what did that engine come in in stock form?

i would go for trying to fit that one myself. and save the cash..

i am all for trying that conversion.



nevermind , just seen that engine is 2 4cyl grafted togeather

That is basically two Hayabusa heads on a custom V8 block. The cost-$28K! Not for the budget minded!!!

ok yea would want RWD manual trans
but i want to keep the interior parts focus...

i dont plan to build a track car with nothing inside, i want like a sleeper car.. with gauges of course to keep everything under control..
but i would want to buy: FOR EXAMPLE...a new mustang v8 engine with trans then have it converted to RWD

[:)][:)][:)][:)] that... get the 'busa V8

JD Motorsports 1-888-907-0477 in Florida does these conversions. They quoted to Kugel Kompenents about $20,000 to do the complete swap. Just the parts from Kugel list for around 5500 less motor and trans.

damn! Imagine a t76 on that!

Yeah 400hp stock at 10,000 RPM and only $28,500!!!

That is an amazing engine, very cool find. If you go to the website theres a history page detailing swapping it into a Caterham 7. Interestingly the engine it replaced was a Zetec and it looks just huge in comparison. Very cool.
