Just wondering...

[Ryan]

how easy or difficult it would be to insert a 6G72 from the MMC 3000GT into a Legnum or Galant? You know, the 300PS one

[CANDEE]

It would be pretty hard Have had a look at this a couple of times with different cars and the 6G72 is pretty big size wise

I dont think there isnt all that much room under the acre-sized space they call a bonnet in the GTO...

[Robotnik123]

How come the US 8G Galant had the 3.0L 6G72 as an option then?

[bradc]

Ryan - not much point. The engine is a lot bigger and heavier. Furthermore it points around the wrong way, so NOTHING will bolt up. You'd need custom everything.

Robotnik - they are different cars. Suspension, engine bay, steering, everything is completely different apart from the door panels and roof panel! Honestly thats about it!

Ah right - so it's a longitudinal... Yeah, far too much effort.

No i think it's Transverse like the 6A13

But the other transverse

[bradc]

I didn't say that! Still transverse, but the engine and gearbox are flipped around.

edit - wodj beat me

Not as bad as tyring fit a Longditudinal thats the other way around

[bradc]

would be worse if it was longitudinal and the gearbox ended up pointing through the radiator

Porsche 911 engine anyone?

And the driveshaft

[bradc]

could power the car in front of you?

[Wodjno]

Now your scaring me

I had them exact same thoughts

[bradc]

I was thinking that hmm if one had a 3000GT you could try out an 8A80 with a pair of twin scroll EVO 6.5 turbos

[miller]

Comparison,

VR4 engine

6A13 non turbo,

[bradc]

The GTO engine is a 6G72, not a 6A13

[Subaru ETA]

could poss go into a diamante?

[bradc]

I think some people in Aussie have done that

[miller]

Doh...yes your right, getting my engines mixed up. i need a for that
