If He wanted an alien motor in it, it would have been born with one.

...that's what my Land Cruiser buddies said when I put that Chevy 350 in my old FJ-40. I mean, that's what they said when I waited for them at the top of the hill!
Now if I could only find the right bell-housing adaptor to fit that NorthStar into my beater Range Rover!

I'll step up ANYTIME for an engine swap. To date here's the little monsters I've helped create:
1. 13B Mazada Rotary into a Fiat X1/9
2. Small Block Chevy in to Jaguar XJ6 (easy)
3. The spyder with the 911 flat 6
The nut-zoids like me who partake in this type of adventure think outside the box, want more power and expect better than stock reliability. And we are willing to bust knuckles, skin elbows, and cuss in the garage while sorting them out. And then not shoot the well meaning but clearly clueless individual who takes one look at the finished product and announces they could have done it easier/better/faster etc....

My small block 350 powered 280z ran great (wow). I wish I could paint the very funny picture
for you of my high speed rust removal technique. The car literally fell to bits as I drove it.
Dragging rusty rocker panels while doing hole shots makes quite the racket.
