Don't know why, just started thinking about weird swaps. What do you guys think about a Fiat Twinair 0.9L turbo? Or any others? Also, what would you say is the All-Around-Best swap for a Festiva? (Kinda expecting a lot of B6, BP)

Fiesta ST swap would be sweet, or one of those little 3 cylinder Fiesta turbo diesel engines that we didn't get here.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile.

GM 2.8 V-6 with a 5-speed Gertrag transmission from a Pontiac Fiero donor.
Double the displacement. It will be like having two engines under the hood.
That ought to get the Festiva moving.Last edited by bravekozak; 05-29-2016, 06:58 PM.Comment

Someone still needs to do a rotary swapped FWD festiva.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege.

A friend has a line on a Focus ST drivetrain for $800, needs some bits after a hard front end collision but it's all there. If I had the skills to make it work I'd be all over it, but at this point I'd have to pay someone to engineer and do the swap, which is not feasible at the moment.1990 Flat black Festiva...Mostly stock...
