It’s something that both excites and appals in equal amount – the engine swap. Now, even the most diehard fan will concede that it’s sort of okay once the new heart is sourced from within the same family i.e. 1UZ-FE into an AE86, S54 into E36, K20a into EK9 etc. But it’s usually outside these parameters that people’s tolerances are tested…
2JZ into a BMW M5? LS7 into a Skyline GT-R? F20c into a Ford Escort?
Some will take great joy in the idea of inter-species breeding, but for others it’s just morally wrong under any circumstance. So, what say you?
