    There's this great website that tells you ALL the info on how to do these swaps and what the easiest one is, https://sl-i.net/FORUM/search.php

    On a more serious note here's the link you should have read https://sl-i.net/FORUM/showthread.ph...EAD-HERE-FIRST
    My greatest feat with my car is the constant willingness to keep it on the road for no apparent reward.

    I personally would do a 1.0L 3cyl from an early geo metro. It will leave you so much room in the engine bay, and nothing sounds as bad ass as a 3 cyl motor!
