Can I pull out my V8 and put in a 20B?
Can I pull out my V8 and put in a 20B?
Hi everybody, I dont know much about cars. But, I just bought an 87 TII that has some crappy old Mopar V8 in it. It is a pig and the handling is horrible. It is like driving an elephant. Anyways, my question is can I go back to a 20B in place of the dinosaur motor. I think it would be both faster and more dependable, plus I think it would be easier to build then a piston motor.
Your car originally had a 13B, not a 20B. Yes, a 20B could be installed, but since you don't know much about cars you have zero chance of performing such a complicated conversion yourself, and I have a feeling that you are not going to want to pay the $35,000 that this conversion normally costs from a professional shop.
You shouldn't have sold your 13B engine. Live and learn, Grasshopper.
