Those coming to Carlisle from points south on Thursday May 14 should consider meeting up with fellow travelers at Maggies in Westminster for lunch.
Thinking about setting up a group trip to the kart track in lemonye
Looks like maybe a hoot. Any interest?
Will Do, Gregg.
And everyone else: Do not call the number I posted at the top of this thread. I made a mistake, that’s Mary’s personal cell phone. If you need to call the Courtyard Marriott, use their desk number: 717-766-9006
You can make a reservation using this link.
Vicenc,! Great to hear from you again.
And what a great problem to have.
Obvs none of us on here have done a BCW front engine swap yet but it’s entertaining to think about what we could or would do if your car was ours.
My first stop on the innerweb is a search of what engine swaps work in a Chevette. Turns out the 60-degree chevy V6 (the ones for longitudinal duty in trucks and F-Bodies) allegedly go in without a hitch.
Chevette guys are all over this particular swap. Imho it makes a lot more sense than trying to shoehorn a V8 in there.
A Miata swap would also be awesome, imho. I’d try to get the whole drivetrain to work. It would have to fit, though I’d imagine you’d have to make the frame mounts for the engine.
Hell, I’d bet just about any this-century dohc four cylinder car engine could be made to fit, and wired to run, in a BCW TD body.
Maybe a 2.5 Ecotec?
Excellent, Greg. As Bill mentioned, here’s the hotel info.
I’ve set aside a block of rooms at the Courtyard by Marriott for us, you can book at this link or call the hotel and book under Speedster Owners Group in the meantime at 717-475-2044. The room rate is $129 this year for the king, $139 for two queens.
