        And Sasquatch, you forgot the turbo v8 quad.
        i dont think the v8 quad counts cause we didnt swap the motor, we built around it lol... but we had to rebuild it 2 or 3 times...

        and i forgot about all the mini bikes i have worked on... i use to be crazy in to those things at one time... then the festiva took over lol... but im wanting to put my moped back together... (was 70, then got replaced by a 125, now going 150 )

        here is a vid of it... (after the 125 started getting SLOW cause it was loosing compression ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UBVLeQpLWQ

            Engine, trans swaps etc.

            My love affair with cars started back in the 60's first swap was to switch out a 265 in a 57 two door hard top to a 300 HP 327 from a wrecked 62 Impala SS, One of the the more note worthy swaps was dad and i put a small block in a Corvair Sider etc, and now that i've seen Tominmo's rear Turbo car at the ST. Louis meet, that looks like a good way to go. As Festiva Wes said way to many to list,and it has been fun.
            An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

              I guess I'm behind.. actually never had the background, tools, etc to do engine swaps. The B3 out of the 91 parts car in the 94 Aspire was the only engine swap I've done. I've did alot of body work over the years though. May have a few engine swaps next year.
