its been a long time sense i have been here on site,, last fall the viva took the knocking,,
so i pulled the engine and had it fixed again,, still running but im nervous on longevity,
now for my question ,,,,, on this site there is a few mods where there is a few different engines installed,,,
zetec, cheveete, and rovers ,
what is the best choise for my 65 HA viva , here in Nova Scotia ,
i can get north amercian cars for donors ,, Zetecs, ecotecs, v6s v8?
but my problem is,, most stuff here is front wheel drive , transverse mounted (sideways) unless i go old school Rwd but most of the survivors are v8s,,
thinking a 4cyl or at best a v6 and definetly a automatic trans for ease of installtion,,,,
what and how are you using for transmissions on a newer engine ? is it all custom built of a mix of
new and old ?
im toying with the idea of a trans plant because of part availabity and power,,,,
any advice would be a helpfull,,,
