Was just after some help, if people could post up what cars will fit a BA engine (2002 onwards Ford XR6) into their engine bay? Also the T5 Manual Gearbox has to fit. Any car. cheers.

Any Ford Cortina

Any Ford Capri with a bit of nudging

TC/TD/TE/TF Cortina.

That is the best option.

The Ford 4L motor will not fit into an S13 without a MASSIVE bonnet scoop to clear the motor. The motor height is the problem with this project.

if ya want a street racer, got the capri, apparently have the lightest body.
i said "apparently", i could be wrong.

Yeah the bonnet clearance aint an issue. Just wondering if it will fit into the S13 really.

Yeah, really looking for the lightweight body, and a big engine. haha.

Three minutes with a tape measure would tell you wether it fits or not .

I suspect there'd have to be a lighter body option than the S13 available too just quietly .

Yeah there are lighter bodies ofcourse... but once you go below 1000kg, (I think) the engine size legally is so much smaller. Over 1000kg, and you can gain more cc's.

It is over 1100Kg's actually to fit any size motor.

800Kg car will take a 2400cc motor(non FI) or divide the cc's by 1.2 to get the forced induction cc limit(2000cc)

One of the best swaps is a VR4 4G63B with a Sigma box into an early 1970's era RWD Lancer.

What about putting something like a xr8 bulge onto it i saw it on a s13 silvia which had some kind of v8 in it which protruded out of the bonnet so they cut it out and fitted the xr8 bulge into it looked mint
hope that helps
