I compiled the following list of conversion parts. This is just to put a six cylinder engine in the car and doesn't include a 5 lug conversion or suspension mods. So for you guys that throw out low total conversion prices please tell us how you did it and how you cut costs. Often I see references to exceptional deals on engines that can't be easily reproduced or incomplete parts lists that don't include all the parts or headers/exhaust.

I think you're about right on the money.
IMO if your under 140hp you may as well stick with the /4 140 to 180hp it's a crap shoot. 180+hp go for the /6 In the end it's what you want. |
