Anyone else ever seen this, i think its pretty cool because now at least the car sounds good and has plenty of torque,lol. its a cheap car, and 5.0s are cheap i dont see why it wasn't a bad idea....i just wonder if its still lighter then the foxes....i know those cars originally weigh about 2700-2800lbs

That is pretty cool, probably still is lighter than a fox even with the extra weight from the motor.

WTF is up with the rev limiter? Anyway, that is a cool idea.


I'll do you one better, though. RX-7 (2nd or 3rd gen.). There are alot of people doing V8 swaps on them. They are great handling cars. My old FC would slaughter my Stang in corners. And they come factory with STRONG rear ends ... and 4.10's. Not to mention they just look freakin' sweet.

I have shared these before I think ... but Hinson just simply build some of the most BAD@$$ street cars. Period.

Check this out for their other vids ... http://www.hinsonsupercars.com/media.htm

They also have a 240 project.
