V8 into S14!!!
Last Saturday... In my hometown of Houston, Tx.
I saw something that I have never witnessed before. A V8 Engine inside of a S14>1996... what the hell is going on? Is this the Engine Swap of the future... V8? Im not sure what kind of a V8 but... I think Chevy Engine...

Was this is? http://www.limecreekmotorsports.com/project240SS.htm
that's Aries' car like someone said before. I'm pretty sure he's from Texas so chances are it was him. There is a video on the net somewhere of him getting spanked by a lude boosting only 7 psi. I'll see if I can find this vid again. edit: found the vid saved on my comp so i put it on my website. you need either divx or the newest windows media player to see it. download video here

thats kinda cool, but if i was gonna put a v8 in somethin i think it would have to be older such as a 280 or a porsche 914 or somethin like that.

i won't hate...
i'll say i don't like the idea, but that's because i'm a drifter. for drag-racing...it might turn out to be a good idea in the end, but for drifting, that's a definite no-no.

I think the reason more people aren't doing this swap is that it is like the answer to a question no one asked. Until people see a V8 240SX that can really tear it up and not lose to a busted turbo Prelude in need of a rebuild, people will probably do without.
I'm not trying to spread any rumors, but I have a friend that knows Aries, and he said that the engine is actually some sort of Buick V8, rather than an LT1. I was wondering if it was the LT1 from the Roadmaster(basically Impala SS), but my friend didn't know for sure. As for V8s in a 240SX, I'd much rather see a VH or VK swap. I think the folks at Freshalloy said that a VH will fit.
