Hey
I can get a complete engine and gearbox from a written off commodore for $150. I know it doesn't sound proper but could I drop that into a sierra shell? Thanx Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Rego rules re engines swaps have changed recently in some states.
What may be 'possible' would not necessarily be street legal. I heard that in the UK someone put a Jaguar V12 into a Capri...but one would ask "Why?" Each to their own I guess. |

Probably best to look for old school Ford V8 engine and replicate the XR8 that was manufactured in South Africa. Sierra's are just so hard to find. What's the go with regard to importing one? Is that possible?
