Any help would be appreciated.

you need three things, in this order of importance and use

12pack camo

welder

plasma cutter

[roo]

I prefer old mud ice. Will that be a viable substitute?

What kind of welder will I need? Arc, Gas, JB?

if the fist sip makes you throw up in your mouth a little bit then yes

and jb is prefered but if need be double sided 3m sticky tape can be used

conversion is hard, just swap in ls1

Too expensive. I'm on a budget here.

Put up a thread on scr, Im sure youll get some feedback.

[roo]

You think? I'm sure there are quite a few experts over there on this kind of project so I suppose you are right.

Thanks! :)

dude, you can go to walmart and get an ls1 for 19.99 , how is that not budget enough?

Hoist up the radiator cap and replace all the parts under that with your favorite V8 and associated hardware.

I think a V-12 from a couple Mopar slant 6s would be a better idea.

Grow a mullet first.

How much power can I expect to gain just from converting it from a 4 cylinder to a V8? I would expect it to be more than just double since it'll now be a V8.

Does anyone have a formula for it? V = (BHP*2) * 3?

[4 cam torino]

Does anyone have a formula for it? V = (BHP*2) ^ 3?
I think it's that

[roo]

That seems more accurate. I was being kind of conservative on my estimates.

[Ervin]

put a 4g63 in the trunk and BAM!!!!! you gotz yourself a v8

[4 cam torino]

only if you set them at a slight angle in the engine bay and trunk. Otherwise it's a parallel 8 and not a V8

[coop]

i would replace the pistons with 2 smaller ones...then put a hinge in the middle.....i had a huge write up on this when i converted my vvt-i to a LS1.....its on SCR somewhere
