Hello, I'm new here, I have an 86 FC that I'm prepping for a hemi swap, wish me luck on this stupid yet fun project

 

Whoa, that's cool! Which HEMI? The 5.7?

 

lol yeah, i just picked up a 2011 5.7 today, also got a powerstroke turbo for it

 

Well that's going to be interesting. Can't wait to see it!

 

Interesting....what's the inspiration for the 5.7 hemi/ powerstroke turbo swap?

 

I like the sound of a hemi, and wanted to do something that makes perfect just question everything life in general.
the turbo i just picked up while i was there, saw it was rebuildable and said, "oh **** yes I'm doing this now"

 

Haha I see. Well good luck with the swap, I'm guessing you'll be forging your own way as that's an unlikely swap.

 

lol its about as unlikely as a coyote swap, I've seen a couple of them around
