I can't believe they dropped a 26 in a Stang. Its taking me 2 years to drop a 26 in my 240

i was reading a magazine and apparantly it ran like complete ***. They drove a similiar car with a different motor for most of the movie. Ill grab the mag name in a bit. Aparantly all the action in the movie was 100%, no stunt drives, no film tricks. They crashed a lot of car and the actors actually did all the driving. The HBO special was really fun to watch, lil bow wow all upset about s15 crashing and stuff it was a good time.

It was in Sport Compact Car I believe. ANyways, the actors did some driving but not nearly all of it, most of it was amateur and pro drivers, including Rhys and Tanner from FD. What really irked me was that the 26 came out of an S15, wtf?

And it would prolly be easier to drop it into a Mustang than a 240, assuming you had a stand alone to run it.

if you have a problem with your swap please make a legitimate thread. this is a tech forum, not a off topic forum.
