viper engine in 2nd gen?

[ilovefirstgens]

I say do it!

Theres always people that will call ANY type of modefied sacrelidge so if you found a deal on a v10 more power to you, as others have stated this a veery long engine so a few minutes with a tape measurer might you rethink it, but you never know.

Its always cool have something you KNOW is different

I agree do it!
You can't go to a car show without seeing a Mopar or Ford with a SBC. Try to even it up some. Do something different.

I have seen Nissan rb26's in a Supra and its a pretty cool swap. I even saw on this message board an rx7 with an LS1 now that was awesome. Supras are cool but they never really do much for 1/4 times they are more about high horse power and top speed. Dont get me wrong I have seen the Titan Supra run 9s but with over 1200hp.

your are right , they are not real good drag cars like some others , they are big horsepower makers and a blast to drive , they are very reliable comfortable , the whole nine yards , i think that i can truly say that i will never part with this car .... oh and i really like the rx-7s as well , but the rotary motor is the weekest link ... i think that dropping the ls-1 in them is just in this situation......

So many decisions .... where does it end ???????? oh wait i am getting married in less than three months , i guess then it may come to a screeching halt....!!!!!

Dookie,
We just finished a Viper engine install into a 68 SuperBee. Bottom line is the V-10 is a little over 36" long. You will need to move the firewall to fit the the engine. The good news is the Viper engine pulls like crazy, they are torque monsters.

if its a good deal, and you have the funds, pick it up and re-sell it. tons of guys here or on viperforums would take it. not to mention since the prices are coming down, a lot of supra owners are switching to vipers, growing trend over on supraforums.

i havent been on the board for a couple of weeks , and i just looked this post up to see if i had gotten anymore flaming , its funny that you mention the guys on supraforums switching to vipers , i have started looking at some of the gts vipers lately and have pondered the possibility of selling the supra for one , they have grown on me like crazy to the point where i have had some serious talks with some dealers .... prolly wont materialize but its fun dreaming .....
