    HI, V8 swap

    This is embarrasing guys I thought as a community we were over all of the bashing and sterotyping bullshit... :nono: The OP may pull off a clean swap that runs well and makes good power/reliability something very few members can achieve no matter the powerplant, wait and see what he produces...
