Morning guys
What do you guys think of my supa crazy idea. I have a panel shop and sitting out the back is a 91 EB fairmont sedan with a blown motor (6 cyl). Over a couple of beers with my workers, we were thinking of dragging the EB inside and fitting a 460/c6 auto that we also have lying around! There is an engineering shop down the road that will make the engine mounts. We have done a couple of initial measurements and the big ol girl will definitely fit - just!! What do you think? Ideas? |

Now that I'd like to see.
She'd be like a bag of marbles through the corners, but it would sound nice running the 1/4. |
