Kevin's # 25 was one of the previous #23's for the same owner (about 3 owners before Kevin got it).

I need to build some modified sized shelves to store these things.

I'm with John. Cheap fun!

Imagine a Volvo or Pugeot turbo engine in one of these, or a BMW M-series. Chassis/component repair available from many local sources, Running geardirt cheap (compared to anything Euro, Asian, or post-1980 American), readily available, top quality. Vast choice of differentials, shocks, brake pads, etc. Change final drive ratio in 15 min. Fully alignable and adjustable.

I was thinking a Chevy LS in one. The fuel injection intake manifold would allow the air cleaner to be mounted in less in the way location.

That would be nice, I will admit my air cleaner has been known to block my sight line.

You could use a shorter air cleaning element. You don't need one as large as you are using.

He could go to dry sump, and take the 2" blocks out of the motor mounts. And Moroso makes a "deep drop" air cleaner base, especially for wet sump "SK" modifieds. In addition, Backwoods Racing and Robot Racing may be collaborating on a new design low profile, high flow filter assembly.

A 5.0 Ford would be none too shabby, and they are around for cheap. They are quite a bit smaller than the ubiqutous SBC, and 100# lighter.

I'd put a Chrysler 340 in it because I'm a Mopar guy at heart
