Just curious...if you are going to do all the work of instlling another engine why on earth would you use the Ford 2.8? Why not Buick 3.8, Chevy 4.3, Ford's larger V6 or something bigger and more modern?

I know the others fit too. Maybe the 2.8 is less work or he got a great deal on it...who knows. I just thought if you are going to do all the work, get the most bang for your buck.

Yeah, I'll go for that "big bang for the bucks" saying. Just do it once and be happy.

if i had a zuk, i wouldn't mess with trying to stick a tiny (displacement, not size) v-6 in there when you could fit a bigger 4cyl. maybe he ought to think about a 2180 turbo'd from CB performance!! the heck with radiators!!
