Just google 'mustang tank engine' :) 1100 cubic inch Sherman tank engine, 500hp/1050 ft/lbs. In a 70 mustang.

Pics??

Sorry, don't have any, I have only seen the car in pictures myself. The car is basically a dedicated drag car, I think it is registered for street use, but keep in mind it also has a wheelie car and a chute.

when I was working at a repair shop in orlando- part of a local car collection included an mg midget with a buick twin turbo gnx v6- dynoed at 630 wheel hp. this thing could sit and do stationary donuts with the adjustable front line lock on the brakes- he also had a couple of rookie year nascar stockers and a daily driven ferrari testarossa ( with a weekend turbo ferrari 512 berlinetta boxer )- the mg was INSANE!

i heard about a guy who swapped at mclarean f1 engine into a e36 m3... idk how true that is though

Big Block 454 Cheverolet in a Fiero. Have seen it myself and it's not a chop job. Engine is still in the back and sets sidways like the original.

That BMW 2002 w/ M5 V8 swap is indeed insane! :eek: There had to be some surgery involved to get that monstrously large (externally) DOHC V8 in there. I suspect it will require a multi-piece steering shaft, major trans tunnel and firewall rework, some kind of rear diff housing upgrade, and really low ground clearance to keep the engine under the stock hood line. And the weight distribution, well, those '02s don't have a lot of wheelbase or length in the engine bay room, so the engine will likely sit forward fairly far (unless the firewall goes back into the passenger compartment quite a ways).

Still, gotta give the man props for attempting such an audacious swap! :buttrock

edit: upon closer inspection - there is no firewall and the engine is sitting deep into the engine bay.

The 2002 is insane. :cool

I like this swap for crazy:

Caddy 500 in a Porsche 911. And ITS FOR SALE! /drools

http://www.enercalc.com/porsche/IMG_3636_MED.jpg

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250157165131

I have seen that 911 in person. He lives about one mile from my house and it is most times parked on the street. The car looks flawless other than having a V8 in the back seat and an auto. I bet it runs hot with that radiator set up though. Might not though because the guy who owns it lives in a 3 plus millinon dollar house so he obviously has the money to make it right. But still why do it? Especially with an auto.

http://dallas-powerhouse.com/DPhybrid/images/IMG_1086.jpg http://dallas-powerhouse.com/DPhybrid/images/IMG_1090.jpg

Our fabricator is building an LS2 powered 911 for himself; we might team up with him and make this a kit, who knows? Its pretty slick and uses the 930 transaxle, a remote water pump (for clearance), custom radiators, and should easily exceed 500hp.

http://dallas-powerhouse.com/DPhybrid/images/IMG_0846.jpg http://dallas-powerhouse.com/DPhybrid/images/IMG_0857.jpg

The 6.0L LS2 (at right) is positively dwarfed by the original, smogged-out 2.7L 170hp powerplant (at left). :eyecrazy The LS2 was a lot cheaper to build from scratch than the 2.7L would have cost for even a basic rebuild. Note: that is not a carburetor on the LS2, but a 4-blade throttle body and aftermarket EFI.

carb would have been cool too..that is insane.

I found an article one time about a Ferrari V12 in a 1970 trans am called the Pegasus. IT was cool for the 70's..but kind of MEH. Ferraris get much of their performance by not weighing anything

That engine is definitely from the air-cooled family so it is pre 996, I would guess that it was a from a 993.

The biggest trick with the Porsche swaps is getting the cooling to work properly.

This car is SO F**KING FUNNY.

We very nearly dropped a 327 ci small block from a '68 corvette into a 325e.

And I love the LS-1 powered 240sx/

The shop where I worked in the 70's stuffed a Boss 351 in a Sunbeam Alpine. At the time you could buy a Sunbeam Tiger with a 60 degree V, 260 or 289 CI Ford V8. The Boss 351 is a 90 degree V, so it was a really tight fit. At the time 330 HP in a 2500 pound car was impressive.

I was reading one of my buddys VW Golf magazines, and someone in Europe swapped a 'busa engine into a VW Golf, and RWD. The pics were different, quite the setup.

I have seen the conversion you speak of and yes, it is impressive. Even today. But if they used 351 4V factory heads, the engine was probably closer to 400 horses, unless it dynoed at that. The 351C 4V (4 barrel) head rivaled to actually outflowed LSX heads.

And I beleive the 289/302's are 90 degree also. THe diffeence is the the 351W and M/C blocks were over .5" more deck height and much fatter heads on the clevelands. CLevelands Rock. No Pun intended, but they are pretty much as big as a 429/460

Putting Chevy small blocks into Fieros is extremely popular. The cars fit the engine like they were made for it. I think the Fiero was intentionally crippled and turned into a commuter car by Chevy just so that they wouldn't have products competing with each other. You can see a lot at fiero.nl

(2) One of my buddies from the BMW Club of Quebec has a tuned M60 in his E30 club racer.

(3) I've read about a couple of E30 M3's running tuned LS1's.

(4) I've seen pics of a Cosworth YB turbo from an Escort RS Cosworth in an E30. Ditto for an F20C.

More info,

While Judd may have made many Formula 1 engines in the past they are mostly known as a LMP (lemans prototype), endurance racing and a sports car engine supplier these days. They make V8 and V10's. While highly advanced and extremely powerful and high revving there are not Formula 1 spec. There are based on formula 1 engines of many years ago. Which still makes them AMAZING!

Here is there website

Oh yeah one more major difference between the Judd v8 and F1 v8.

Judd V8 KV675 10,000 rpms - 3.4L - aprox- 550-600hp (built to last for endurance racing)

F1 V8 19,000 rpms (pneumatic valves) 2.5 L aprox 740 HP (build to last 2 races)

and in 2003-2005 F1 engine where 950-hp and up to 22,000 rpms.

The most insane thing about that is not only the project itself..but how insanely clean the garage is after getting to that point in the project..odd?

Back in the late '70s the Granatelli brothers swapped a left over turbine engine from their Indy program into a Corvette for a wealthy client.
I think it was a '78 and the engine was a P&W pt6.
I've tried to find info and pics but no joy. It did and is rumored to still exist. Maybe someone here more computer savy than myself will find it and a link.

How about this: An E30 with a 500hp M5 V10!?! They had to build a radically new chassis to fit the engine - frame rails, firewall, floorpan, and they are swapping in the M5's in the front and rear sub-frames. Its a work in progress but looks like someone with more money than sense. :D

How about a v12 Merlin engine out of a p51 WWII Mustang fighter plane in a 55 Chevy. Apparently he wears earmuffs while driving the thing. Check out the 6 exhaust outlet on each side. Crazy

go to rodshop.com.au/project55.htm

Wow, those Austrailians drink a LOT of beer. The Packard Merlin is one of my favorites; an incredible piece of work for the time and tools that engineers had available to them but, the Merlin only made about .8hp/cube at "normal" supercharger setting and about 1hp/cube at 66" of boost (about 30psi) and weighed about 1lb/cube and is about 72" long.

So ... LS7 ... 600lbs with T56 ... 427cubes ... 500hp ... 500ftlbs ... yeah, baby!!

So...

Now THIS...is the most insane machine I've ever seen. Custom-built Model-T bus. But that engine, WTF! This guy was from, IIRC, San Francisco. Said he built the intake himself. The superchargers (TWIN superchargers?) are for a Detroit Diesel. (!) I'm amazed the block doesn't just MELT. It's like someone saw a Hot Wheels car and thought "Yeah!"

I saw a toyota corolla, early 70's model with a S2000 motor. I thought that was pretty sick. The power to weight is crazy if you think about it. Also saw a S2000 with a Supra 2JZ in it. But the 2002 with the M5 motor is pretty sick!

Here's the build thread, very interesting. http://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=460867

that we put into my dads Rambler American. We did it in our back yard when I was just a kid in the 60s. It was never really finished but my dad did drive it around town a little. He was afraid the front suspension was going to collapse and he finally junked the whole mess. He said he could do anything with a torch so my brother and I threw the idea at him. We had the engine trans, and the car. He said what the heck and went at it. We had a blast doing what was thought to be impossible way back then. It was definitly not a professional job. However it did impress our gear head friends who then thought we were mechanical maniacs. I have a nice 4.6 Ford driveline thats haunting me to install in my 525. I wonder if that one's been done.

i heard about a guy who swapped at mclarean f1 engine into a e36 m3... idk how true that is though


the F1's engine is a BMW engine....I believe it a v12 with 600+ hp

a couple of dudes in the e30 forum were prompted by nitrophish, and i belive they put a few flux copacitors in the e30, and one dude even put three http://astrogeology.usgs.gov/HotTopics/uploads/141078main_liftoff3.jpg of those

its not the craziest swap but the dumbest. i put a 4g63t in a 91 dodge colt hatch. on factory 13" wheels. didn't stop worth a shit but it went like stink. and it was ugly. i loved it.

Used to hang around street rodders and ended up with a 58 Porsche 356 with a 66 Corvair 180hp turbo motor. Never got it to work quite right though. Suspension couldn't handle the weight and it felt like the clutch chattered badly in first. Had to start in second most of the time. Old bias ply tires and original brake system made high speeds scary.

This isn't the craziest swap I have ever seen, but seeing it in person and hearing it was pretty cool.
