It really surprises me that no one has done this yet for the challenge.

And well done, sir! I hope to develop this habit, nasty or not.

The garage is getting closer all the time; I'm getting giddy...

A couple nights ago, I literally woke up from a dream where me an a couple of my buds had built a twin-engined beast out of an old air-cooled Fiat 600.

It was powered by twin zx14 engines, mounted side-by-side, with each powering its corresponding rear wheel.

With some creative exhaust-work and Power-Commander, this should be good for roughly 370hp at the wheels...

At this very moment in time, Schulz BMW E28 wagon sleeper with a 1JZ or a P71 with a manual transmission. But my dreams are somewhat active. It'll be something different tomorrow.

And then add these wheels (Volk TE37V)

How common are these? VQ3x S30 has been something brewing in my brain for a while. I see a lot of RB25/6 and V8 swaps, and occasional SR20s, which I like for the light weight and ease of making 350-400 whp. But an N/A 6 is just right for these cars and the engines are so common nowadays.

Putting an LS4/6-speed in my Mk2 MR2 hardtop would be pretty nifty.

6.2 LSX block with a 4.8 crank and long connecting rods. ITB's, T56 in a FC or FD Rx-7. 180 headers, 3in true duals x piped. Give it suspension and brakes worthy of the engine, let it serenade you all the way home from work.

1st gen neon coupe, 2.4 swap with a R/T, sport, acr twin cam head and intake. Quaife diff.

1972 MGB GT with an LS1/T56 combo. Oh, wait...

I want to build a high speed off road buggy, like a scaled down Class 1. No VW suspension. Something that will go WOT across our desert roads as the wheels dance. I'm in the dreaming stage.

My neighbor has a red Vanagon with a stalling problem and I desperately want to do something like this to it, but a bit more ratty. I have no idea if they'd fit, but some black center Fuchs would be niiiiiice.
