Default Hackster's Need for Swede 😁

Some may remember the F100 he built with an LS and single turbo, followed by another F100 with a Coyote and 6spd that he tracked all over the west coast. Well, he’s gone back to his roots and is well on his way with his next track toy.

One of the last 240’s he built. It’s kinda ok I guess, if you’re into super clean, sorted drivers that get 25+ mpg and don’t scream “look at me”.

Yes please! Very cool.

I was just looking at the take-off LSA blower swaps people been doing on LS1's... would be interested in how you did yours and what parts you used.

This is cool. I honestly had no idea people built these cars up until a few popped up on bring a trailer. Some of them look seriously badass. Thanks for keeping us updated, basher.

I just sent him a text letting him know I got this started for him, hopefully he’ll jump on and continue with the updates. The build plan also includes a 6spd and I’m pretty sure 315’s squared, it’s going to be a wicked little box.

I love that body style.

I have a set of CCW C10 18x10 and 18x12 rims if that runs a Ford bolt pattern. I actually have 2 fronts and 3 rears for $2200 if that is something he wants to do

They are my spare rims for the RX-7.
