That would be a pain in the butt swap. Nothing is the same.

If you were to spend the money for a motor swap, I would put a v-8 or a srt-4 motor in.

If you were to spend that much money it's time for a better car to start with.

Yep, that's why there's a budget on my Mazdaspeed. Once I can't get gains on the track past what I could have spent on another car to get the same gains.. Time to stop spending money.

People have squeezed ungodly engines into shitboxes of all types:

http://www.spagweb.com/v8mini/

et al, et al..

Seeing that you brought the issue up (and there's been about 232,645 posts already about similar topics), I vote you front the money and time for R&D'ing this.

It's only fair..

yeah, I'll get right on that.....as soon as I get a job that pays more than 7 bucks an hour and graduate college (rockon) . I got bored and was daydreaming, sorry, hadn't seen another topic like this, guess that's what I get for not searching first (braindead
