You're invited to... The Phoenix Tuning 24-hour Engine Swap EVENT Options

[Dr_Tweak]

I was out in the shop today and I had this idea. I thought it might be cool....

I was thinking of having some people come up, someone with a good video camera and editing skills, and doing a monster garage-style engine swap race. Basically a 24 hour straight out engine swap, like start at 7 am and it has to be done by 7 am the next day. I'm thinking something like a 3SGTE swap into an ST, including all the wiring, front mount intercooler, EVERYTHING, in 24 hours straight. Maybe have a bunch of people up to hang out and goof off, whatever.

Then have someone edit the video, speed up parts of it, do some voice-over, and then put it out there on the internet.

Thoughts?

PS: This won't happen until late next year at the earliest.

Well I'm happy to see a good response. The competition idea is pretty cool, I would host that if my shop was bigger.

As far as all you guys who are talking about donating your car, who's really serious? You would still have to pay for the swap, but the labor would only be $500.

I would like to do an ST, but we could always do a GT now and an ST down the road....
