question about GT/
 

when reading the rules it says any year motor in any year of car, as long as they are the same make,

has anyone tried an LS1 in an early nova?

Re: question about GT/
 

I inquired about a similar issue (Volare with a 5.7L hemi) with NHRA and they told me that it would be a legal combination within the GT guidelines. However, it would have to be fuel injected and listed under the engine combo listing (which of course the LS1 is). I would send an email to NHRA tech to be safe. Heck of an idea!

sounds like a good idea for the volare!

and for the nova idea, heck throw in an ls7 from a newer z06

Re: question about GT/
 

now how about a prowler with a 6.1 ?:eek:

Re: question about GT/
 

I'm kinda surprised no one has tried a combo like you mention since they opened up the GT body rules. How bout Kip Martin's early Mustang with a 331" blown CJ? (if you're into the F-word cars)
Or...a '55 Chev 210 with a 454...etc. I know it's not "pure", but that horse left the barn when GT was invented!

I would rather see an early Mustang with the 2010 352 in it. Yes I am into the F-word cars.

Re: question about GT/
 

great idea....but totally impossible!! the 6cyl. that's in it is right next to the body panels.

Re: question about GT/
 

i have never seen the engine compartment so i guess wishful thinking,

as for fords a 67 fastback with the new cobra jet motor and a 4 speed:eek:

Re: question about GT/
 

There are 4 new Cobra Jet engines, 2 OHC, 2 pushrod.

The OHC engines would not fit in an early Mustang without cutting and welding.

The pushrod motors are small blocks and would drop right in.

we are thinking of putting one of the crate motors in the Fairlane and run GT/D :D
