New engine!

[Pepino]

i am planning to change the engine on my vx to a more powerfull one i was thinking about putting an srt-10 viper engine or a srt-8 charger engine or even a srt-6 crossfire engine does ayunone know how much would the cost of this change would be? or if it would even be possible?

thanks

[AlaskaVX]

LOL, well I picked up a VX with a LS-1 already in there and let me tell you there is a LOT of work/fab work involved to get that sucker running, and half the battle was already done for me. Good luck!

Anything can be done it's just $$$$$$$$
If I had to throw out a number I would say this change will run you about $10,000 plus a lot of your time.

[JHarris1385]

So let me get this right, are you truly running the LS1 in yours currently?

[AlaskaVX]

No I have 2 VX's... one LS-1 project, and one SCed Daily Driver

That is the coachreed project, no? I read quite a few of his posts on that swap... but why did he bail? Good luck with the rest of it!

[Knigh7s]

Is this your VX from CoachReed?

It would be cool to see an SRT swap, but I personally think the money isn't really worth the swap.

Not trying to pop your bubble....... well ok i am. But really, If you really end up doing the project.... well it's like...... Trying to plump a 800Lb women in a airplane bathroom, and if you do manage to fill her tank..... holy $**t, i'll give you props. But hey, there is still hope. good luck and i'll really would love to see how it turns out.

Hate to say it, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I heard Chip Foose has an opening in one of his bays. He also yearns for $20k to put something in it.

Screw it, drop a Boxer 2.5 T/C engine in there and cut some body weight while you are at it.

Good luck meng.

For a mere $17,500 you can pick one of these up to drop in the engine bay...

...of course you will still need a few extra dollars for all the fab work to make it fit!

What the Hell.....you're dreaming dream big, go for the upcoming LS3( from the new ZR1) supercharged...but in a lovely, compact, package. You're gonna see great things from this engine.
