Rice would be leaving your front license plate off, even though being caught is a $15 ticket because you can't stand the sight of a front plate.

I see nothing wrong with the swap, if it runs and they're willing to try something new, then more power to them

wel i for one dont think its that bad, at least he went with the most expensive american V8. i dont mind this because its NOt a chevy. i hate chevy v8 swaps becasue everyone does it to everything. at least this guy was origional.

nope...the most expensive option, and desirable IMO, would be an aluminum block crate 427...but that may just be me. If I had an extra 12k burning a hole in my pocket, I'd rock one.

well seeing as that appears to be most likely a factory long block 318 or 340. the 12k 427 is comparing apples to oranges.

i ment as far as production american small blocks such as the chevy 350, ford 302, and the chrysler 318 ,340 and 360. engines taken out of wrecked/parts cars and swaped into another vehicle.

noone mentioned what motor that is exactly so its either a 318, 340, 360 or maybe even a 440 but i think that woudl be more noticeable. all these motors have one thing in common though...........it cost more then the ford and chevy. so yes a small block chrysler is the more expensive way to go and is definatly the more unique because the ratio of swapping small block ford and chevys to swaping small block chryslers is most likely about 25:1

heh lol more like at least its not a chevy, that would just add to the thousands of vehicles a 350 has been transplanted it.

I like it, if it was really clean it would be better but it's still fine with me. I bet it hauls ass!
Yeah, what he said.......................:biglaugh: I don't see much wrong with it, except the blower scoop........................................... that Maroon Supra is badass looking!

And for what it's worth, it's a small block Mopar, they came from the factory as 318, 340 or 360 cubic inch motors. The 340's were the badest of the 3, same stroke as the 318 with a larger bore than a 350 Chevy, very quick, high winding motors.
