I'd love to see a rough comparison between different common engine swaps in a few categories.
1. Cost
2. Modification
3. Technical Difficulty
We can use swapping in an M20 as the baseline, but what is hardest I really don' t know, LS1? S54?. Someone want to take a stab at ranking engine swaps in any or all of those categories? Maybe someone could update the wiki page with the following information, perhaps after a discussion here if required.
I realize that any discussion on engine swaps gets the "it depends", which is why I'm looking for a comparison. Saying an S52 swap is easily to do than rebuilding a transmission is one thing, but saying it's easier than swapping in an M20 (though not true) would seem to be vital info for anyone that wants to know what they should start researching first.
Thanks :)
