Hi guys ,
I Just bought this beast a week ago.
Here a few pics.
She's mounting a 4.2 petrol 2f with a 3f head.
Engine rebuilt 3 years ago.
She runs beautifully,nice oil pressure and temperature steady between 90-100.
I was going to spend some money and get a power steering on it and then re wire the whole thing properly and change those messy hoses but then had second thoughts.
She will be my d.d. So I was thinking to do an engine swap.
What's your recommendations?
Should I spend some money on this engine ,power steering etc. And run it to the ground or should I get straight on the swap?
Also in case of swap whats your engine reccomendations?
I know that with a LS 1 v8 she would be an absolute beast but still thirsty ,so I am wondering what are cheaper options in terms of swap costs and fuel economy....
Aiming for the look in the last pic...
Thanks
