        Wait, the Dyno sheet only shows ~350hp? Also, I would not call that a clean swap.

        Why not just supercharge it?

            lol wtf, didn't even look past the title... all that effort/money for 350 whp... Could have turbo m50 or NA LS making more power than that for the close to the same price this guy is into this car... if I had to guess.

            Only makes sense if he already most of the parts laying, and he was making due with what he has

                Nobody just has an m6x swap laying around. Its so much effort to get it to fit with so many custom things needed. I agree that an LS swap would be cheaper, faster, and more reliable. Maybe not as cool though.
