V8 swapped Conquest
 

I will be starting this project when I get settled into my house. I was wondering if anybody in the Norfolk/Hampton area has done this. I want to trade ideas.

I still havent decided on the powerplant. I know Chevy is cheap and easy, but I have a couple hookups on some Ford stuff.

Thanks for any help.

contact mike at CIN motorsports in charlotte NC

super nice guy...he swapped an ls1 into his conquest (before the ls1 craze) and it puts out 550 to the wheels

there shouldnt even be a discussion on what to stick in it.

LS1

Re: V8 swapped Conquest
 

From what I understand a 5.0 is easier as far as less fabrication and it fits better. But if I were to do it I would want to go ls1. Got any 2.6 parts your gonna get rid of from it?

Thanks, If it doesnt take me 9 years to save/source the parts, that is what I want. Cheap old fashion iron is more my budget though.

That is what I have seen during my research. I will have all kind of 2.6 parts. Even the full MPI swap.

Thanks so far. I guess I need to talk to a guy named "Mike".

Agreed......:D

I figured everybody would say "LS1". I was wondering if there was anybody local that currently has one or used to have one. I am looking for some insider information.

A LS1 would be great. It will just take me that much longer to get the funds together for an EFI swap. Those bad boys are not cheap.
