Re: DSM V8 swaps?

I personally think it's dumb. Just like the LS in the evo. Just dumb. There's nothing wrong with the motors we have, and if the goal is to be different, choose a different platform. Don't hack up a perfectly good car, and swap in something crazy like that. That's too much.

X2. I hate engine swaps like that. rb26 into an mk4 supra....LSX into anything you can think of.

How is it different than those who take perfectly good DSMs, part them out, and scrap the shells?
