Nah, I just laugh about it. If you want to go slow and cheap an LS swap is the way to go.

Build a Honda engine. You'll even piss off yourself when it's still slow

And yet you still went through the hassle of building a new LS engine, when a junkyard 4.6 mod motor would have made more power.... What is up with that?

on a serious note. if the car is much over 3k pounds, or if your going for over 400whp on pump gas......i'd go with an engine a bit bigger then the 4g63 like a 2jz or v8

koderboy
07-04-2013, 12:37 PM
Well I don't really want a v8 I want unique so give me what you got

Didn't a guy put one in a dart?

You'll be fine I'm sure. It sounds like you're going for originality more than breaking speed records. I like it. Body looks pretty straight for that price!

I figured its worth a shot and if it doesn't work I'll throw something else at it

yea trent from revhard had a 4g63 dart that ran 10.0's through an auto trans. 4g63 is definitely one of the cheaper routes and still make decent power. 2jz or any nissan setup will cost more. what do you plan on doing with the car? just street driving, car shows or drag racing?

koderboy
07-05-2013, 10:23 AM
Street and shows I don't have the cash to make it drag competitive

L67 with T5 or Turbo350. Mod accordingly.

Cheap and fun and unique.
