Because if it belonged there- Japanese Engineers would of gladly put in a supra/rx7, 3000gt, name the works.
Anyways- Everytime i head up to the track, yah its cool that v8 guys got the big horsepower but something always breaks. I havent seen many that drive their car to the track, race it, drive it back.
Perfect example- Duan stephens- built his car, drove it to Cali, raced it and drove it back. NO way in hell a v8 guy would of done that. And it held, i highly doubt a 350 can take that kind of abuse. Not only that- once you mod a v8 most become strictly a Drag/Trailer Queen. I guess its nice having the 8mpg too once you hit that high HP number.
Another example: I remember Titan/SP engineering (really doesnt matter), built their race car- 900 plus and drove it on city streets infact even went thru a drive thru to get some grub..lol and it still has 28mpg. Damn thats the pretty d*mn good.
Yes, i am biased, i love the sound of an import motor any day of the wk ova a domestic. And yes, i do have respect for domestic motors since each one have Great Characteristics, and can be build Sound as H*ll.

you're a ricer idiot. Is it about "keeping it in the family" or "being JDM mad tyte yoooooo!" or is it about going faster for less money?
personally I don't think the chevy 350 is a gift from heaven by any means, it's a piece of shit motor with MANY MANY MANY workarounds/compromises for shit that it was never intended to do.
you can make it fast and reliable, without a doubt, but frankly. I'd much rather just buy an LS1 and spend all my time worried about the "fast" part, and forget the "reliable" part, 'cause that's already taken care of.
did you know the original SBC was not designed to work with an oil filter?
OOOOOOOooooooooooooooo and as far as swapping a hot to trot, big cube, small dimension pushrod motor in goes... Viper/SRT-10 motors look like they'll fit, and can be had with tranny for 5-6 grand :love: :evil2:
WOw... Ricer idiot... thanks for the comment... lmao Not sure what that have to do with a 350 or JDM tyte.
Obviously you are an idiot...People have Proven that 7m/ijz/2jz provides plenty of horsepower infact isn't a supra one of the top dawg of the import crowd putting down well than a 1000 plus horses. Also if your saying for the money putting down a 350 motor for a 1jz,2jz, 7m is cheaper, Your nuts! Obviously you got to source the motor, than the parts and than when you got all that you don't have shit! Making custom this making custom that. Adds up and man you got to have some creativity. OH wait, i guess you made a book- How to Swap a Domestic Motor in an Import for Dummies. I guess i missed that. Next

Don't know man, last time I checked, you're not the person I consult when I mod my car; your opinion means jack shit to me...
I hope so but if you want to you can take a drive/plan trip to oklahoma and check my mk3 out
And like i stated its my oponion and i guess every Japense Engineer as well or else they would of put a 350 in an import a while back.
