ilogikal1 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Quite frankly, I'm going to be disappointed if that V6 isn't rebuilt, bolted to the V8 and the resultant Frankenstein V14 installed! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashback Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I think you should build a time attack special. Start cutting weight saving holes whilst you ponder upon it and then realise it's a great idea! Then drop in the ls and add a few turbos on top for good luck... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted October 6, 2018 Author Share Posted October 6, 2018 So it's a rainy Saturday morning here at the Zed shed II, I have this - and this Time to make a coffee and go ponder if these two would play nicely together without the need to buy a conversion kit, I will update you on my findings later Keyser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilscorp Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Can you make your thread titles more self explanatory please. I seem to frequently stumble upon major build threads of yours by accident which means I have probably missed 847 crazy car builds of yours which have been going on and finished before I can even do 1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
