Need a faster Solstice?


The engine swap is a tradition in hot rodding and HOT ROD magazine. Cadillac V-8s and Buick nailheads in Model A and B Fords were commonplace in the early days, and the musclecar was born via the concept of the engine swap. Anyone over the age of 35 remembers V-8 Vegas, Monzas, and Pintos, lightweight economy cars that were easily made to go very fast with a healthy small-block stuffed in place of the stock four. And let's not forget the V-8 Datsun 240/260/280Z, which combined Chevy V-8 power with the little sports car's inherent handling abilities.

I dunno about you all- but a mallete edition sky/soltice is not practical... but I would like to go bigger on the cold side of the turbo, and I would love to go 3" on the exhaust... I got a Fidanza Flywheel coming... and that might do something, but I would like to give the car a little bit more power...
