lol have fun

hope you know how to weld

just a little info, you have NO transmission tunnel, so you are gonna need a new firewall, not to mention no driveshaft tunnel. or place to mount the diff.

good luck, i have a feeling this will never run tho.

I got FIVE ON IT. Five dollars says that this post dies before December, and the car doesn't actually ever embark under it's own power. Brother, I would love to see this happen, so you wanna put me in your bet?

REMEMBER, my bet was to give you $5 worth of incentive... If you make it happen, I have a friend with a GMC S15 Blazer that loves to push buttons, if you catch my drift. I really want to see a Honda body roll past a chevy anyday. I don't really care if it IS under Chevy power. HEY! Maybe you can get one of those Honda V-8s that they use in INDY or F1 cup racing. I am sure it can be reworked to make the kind of power that you need. that would be the best thing: keep it all onda

Keep pictures of YOUR car coming!!!

How about this;

Use a Buick turbocharged GNX V6. It would be a little easier to fit.

Plus; when talking to somebody and trying to talk them into a race, you could just say that you have a "V6 Accord" and let them think it's a Honda engine. Of course, when they see the car they would know better.
