I can't wait to see that. So what DO you plan to put in it? Maybe a 5M or 7M?
im thinking 7m i have a few of them lying around not sure on the tranny yet.
too bad that 96 pontiac conversion isn't working yet...running but not moving ARGH oh well. sean has a 5m with a turbo, that would rock that little cavy... i wonder if we could do it with a 5m tranny and one of the 7m engines laying around. ill go look after im done typing in the toyota manuals to see if the 5m trans will bolt up to the 7m, and consult perhaps to see how much power i could run reliably. hey hey thinking now he has a turbo from a 7m on that 5m right now. if this goes further than discussion i will post pics.
that's right sean welcome to the humble economy car forum, im so happy the 5m tranny will bolt up to the 7m engine! conveniently all the stuff is all around too! just need to put that hoist up now. alright folks heres some specs i just looked up for this potential crazy waste fest:

these numbers for the engine are base only. joy. i know the MKIII tranny will hold up to 500 HP but im not sure with the 5m, ah more figuring.
if we make this devil machine i will want to sell it and buy a chevy celebrity...
is there a market for such nonsense?
no don't get a celebrity get a citation hatch
People say that what doesn't kill you in this life
will make you stronger. I'm not sure if that is true
or not, but i do know one thing-You have to learn from
it and it has to make you better.......it has to.......
