^^^ Agreed.....your SH is already a great platform for very nice numbers.
Would save yourself alot of time if you leave your H22 in there work on a fully built motor and turbo. You won't regret it, but you might if you do the swap.
Engine, ready to go Dyno tested @ 350HP/435TQ: $500
Steel (sheet metal, quarter inch beams, other supports:$500
Wide Ratio AOD: $200
So... What could I do with $1200 to that lude to get there?
I think your number of 1200 total is a bit conservative. At the end of it all, you will double or even triple that number (and i know i am being conservative).
