didnt see this in the feasible engine swap sticky...well i live kali so i was thinkin...is this the only swap that would be legal?? i think when u do a swap here in kali it has to be the same year engine or newer. I would like the power of a inline 6 in my car and then just build from there. Don't know how much the engine and everything would cost...would it be about the same cost as the 3sgte swap or alot more??....just wanna stay street legal here in kali...well THANKS!!

You are filling the crumple zones with engine block. If you have ever seen a car in a front end collision, you would see that as the frame buckles, this space is used up. With the V6, the engine would push into the firewall sooner and more drastically than a 4 cylinder, and comprimise the passenger compartment. |
