1:47 - That's me chatting to the owner. Engine was from a Sierra XR4. Pretty sure he said axles were Vauxhall (although not original) and wheels were suzuki. Rear was lowered on lowering blocks. |

1:47 - That's me chatting to the owner Oooh! We’re you getting tips for your engine swap?  now we’ve seen a V6, you’ll have to go V8 (and under (or around) the seat area) |

The only engine swap I can ever see me doing is an electric conversion, for two reasons - the motor can do the braking so I don't have to rely on my drum brakes or get a disc conversion and also so I can have peace and quiet cruising to shows instead of the high revs loud exhaust not that echoes around my canopy / cab! |

I bet that's hilarious to drive, they go sideways pretty well even with the original 900cc or whatever motor

 V8 in a van, did someone say ? I saw this near Sacramento a couple of years ago when I bought a Frogeye to bring home. 7 litres, he told me - “goes great, but the brakes are sh1t” |
