What are you gonna put it in? That's a huge issue, outside of trucks, Dodge has jack squat to put a V8/V10 in. The diaper wipers have all the 60's/early 70's "classics" tied up with factory original dust competitions and God forbid you cut up something. The mid-late 70's stuff is mostly ugly garbage that kids don't want. What rear wheel drive cars did Mopar make in the 80's and 90's? The Viper? Too much $$$, still. The (Mitsu) Stealth? Good turbo car, fit a V8 in there? In ten years the new hemi stuff might be cheap enough, but that's ten years down the pipe(and we'll be looking for the "juice" like Mad Max by then). And they still don't have squat for manual tranny(ie "fun") stuff that's cheap. The 80's and 90's were a key point in time that got missed. Stuff that was cheap and V8, before safety garbage turned every vehicle into a 4000lb tank on wheels or EPA garbage turned it into a gas sipping wimp made out of recycled beer cans. S/F.....Ken M
i would think a 76 shortbox truck with a v10 would be cool,how bout a lightened up dakota with the radiator battery and fuel cell against the tailgate?my bigblock in my dar is not much shorter than a v10 becus the v10 has serpantine drive.
