Re: mini-me or ls
 

My vote is Ls cause i see a lot of guys pushing close to 300hp and 220-250 torque. You dont see that to often on a stock d-series. And as for cost the older ones with cable trannys like you will need are pretty cheap. Or you could go with a 1st gen b16, it cost $1,200 for complete swap on hmotoresonline.com. Plus the cost of motor mounts.

Re: mini-me or ls
 

Its not the cost so much that bothers me cause this yard by my house sells motors for four cylinder motors for 150 whether its import or domestic, I got a b16 from a del sol for 150 too cause the guy that works there told me the day before it came in. I love that yard cause they dont know or dont care for ----. I could easliy get the engine with tranny for about 350 with core deposit an then just get axles an I can make the linkage, but I already have an a6 block an I can get the head from that yard for 50 (thats the price whether its vtec or not)

Cool hookup I guess the mini me would be cool for you then. I just like b16s for some resone. I like to rev :)
