My daily driver 89 lx hatch recently took a nasty fall. The transmission blew and right after that it overheated and blew a head gasket and a couple other things. I got a new car so im using this as my opportunity to finally do something nice with the fox.
I've been looking all over the internet at different swaps i can do, like stroking my current block or a 351w, or even a 04 mach 1 motor. What do you guys think is the best swap out there? I want my car to be streetable, with around 400-450 hp. i will also have to swap from my current auto tranny to a manual which will involve quite a few extra things. Also, i'd like to keep my budget well under 10k.
Please let me know your ideas or comments! Thanks!
