Everyone seems to be forgetting that if you do a motor swap, that you'll sell the fa20 and box for more than the new motor and box will cost.

Ah yes.. because all you need to do to swap in a motor is weld up manifolds? I can think of a dozen other costly and extremely time consuming things you need to do get a new engine working properly in a new chassis.
I thought you were great when you started this thread to share information about potential swap options. Unfortunately you've gone off the tracks when a few people have questioned your opinions about the benefit and cost of these swaps.

Really? A few people with dissenting opinions and you slam the whole forum.
I think the general membership of this forum is pretty experienced and knowledgeable. You'll always have a few who like to sit behind a keyboard and spit out opinions with no experience to back them up.. But I don't think this group is so bad.
