whats up guys, a good friend of mine in the Bay looking for a good mechanic to do business with him. He needs a v10 swap on his ford E-450 bus and a paint job on it .....if anyone had any suggestions it would be appreciated..


Thanks

 

My mechanic and friend just opened up his own shop and this is right up his alley. He's done a lot of big block swaps, LS1's into 510's, 240's, mustangs, etc. at his previous shop. He specializes in custom fabrication particularly tubing and welding, and he is currently building me a tubular front end for my subie.

He doesn't do paint but he can point you to a good place.

The shop is TredSpeed in Santa Clara. Give Dan a call at 408-627-2209.

 

think he can do a smog legal M50/Getrag 260 swap in an E30 without raping me on labor costs? Or M60B44 if I find the donor car? I'd prefer the 4.4l V8

 

ive got an extra 7.3L FS. better power and mileage

 

m50 into an e30 is basically a straight swap......im doing a high comp ls1 on e85 into my e30, full cage and widebody

 

THanks

 

I know it is but do not have the space to do it in my apartment buildings carport

 

Why not go supercharged s50 or s52? My cousins doing it on his 4door e30 and its alot easier than we thought. More power. Same price?

 

going OBD1 route.

Edit: Im tempted to do this: E30 Duratec Swap
