I fully understand your point since it is the exact same as what I was making. The "Frankenstein" was not meant to be derogative but descriptive. The creature was a bunch of parts taken and put together to make a new whole (which incidentally was BETTER than human if you read the book and not just watch the movies) and is that not the same as an engine/transmission/supporting mods swap is doing?
At no point in my other post did I say that was bad. I repeat that I was making a comparison in reference to creating a car that can beat a Camaro and that is exactly what you have done. I was in no way putting down swaps nor implying that engine swapped cars were inferior just that they are a whole different beast than stock. Please do not read everything as written in anger or contempt.
