You know for less money than what you are going to pay for this swap, you could easily make your H22 outperform that 5.0 any day of the week. However, it is unique and will require a lot of custom fabrication. I wish you the best of luck.

Have fun putting a driveshaft and a rear differential into a car that was never made for one.

$1,000 says this isn't completed.

You're gonna spend so much time making this thing work if you're really hellbent on it that you could have had a built and boosted H22 making twice the power of that shitbox pushrod V8.
