I'm looking at picking up an EG shell and I can't decide on what to drop in it. B16,LS, LS/VTEC, CR/VTEC, or turbo-D. I'm trying not to spend too much ($3500 total maybe?). I'm looking for something high 8's in a straight line and can handle mild trips without pulling over half way. Also can't decide between EF or EG

2036 posts and this is what you come up with? High 8's for $3500 into the motor? You have to be effing kidding me?

hahaha easy sho-nuff he didnt have his wheaties today


but yea, good luck hitting that number if you dont even have a motor to build yet..youd spend most of it on the motor/swap/tuning/any bs parts you need along the way..and then more than 3500 to make your car 8 seconds...but i do hear ghost riding your car off a cliff gets it to 8 pretty cheap.

funny story..one of my friends really thought that Busta Rhymes played Sho-Nuff in the movie. Had to stupid-smack him for a couple minutes.

With $3500 you'll be lucky to get your car into the 12's.

im willing to bet he means 8's in the 1/8 mile...and with that kinda budget turbo d-series would probably be your best bet

I agree about the turbo D, you can get into 12's with a turbo D - though for the motor, I say GSR.

What the hell's the difference, I don't think this guy has any clue what in the **** he's talking about anyway.

Maybe that's just me though.

Sure it can be done, but after tires, tune, etc etc, i'm sure he'll be around $3500.

And if his car is stock, he'll want more than just a fast motor. he'll want wheels/susp too. Maybe some nice seats.
