    Well that would probably be easier as it's already set up for FWD.

    Is anyone selling conversion kits for these ?

    He may punch a hole in the wall!!!
    Mmmmmmm front wheel drive makes sence. Maybe go single spinner as well as less loss of power through both wheels. Just think of the torque steer!!!
    U sir are a scholar why has no one thought of a fwd commie before

    just logic dude, for example you get a little 1.5L fwd and its even faster than say a vn commodore with a v6. the 1.5L is less than half the size of the holden motor so therefore it must only need half as much power to do it, its like physics or chemistry or something

    maybe buy a jeep that has the buick 3.8 and th700 already in it and convert the commie to 4x4, you'd have all the bits for the conversion, should be a bolt in swap and you shouldn't need to engineer it as it's using all gm parts.
    using selga's logic you'd lose no power, as you have 4 drive wheels

    I'd say hen pecking, but I know if I tried I'd look like I had down syndrome.

    Well it looks like there are few people that are still willing to help. I ll just ignore haters and smartasses.

    After doing more research i decided not to bother with tune or chips. Too much hassle. I am first going to service it and put a set of cooler plugs and 10mm top gun leads.

    i wouldn't dismiss a retune totally, wait till you have a few bolt on mods done, the stock tune can cope with them..... once you have a few and you want to improve throttle response, fuel economy and pickup then worry about a custom tune, you could put a lower temp thermostat in also.... been meaning to spend $15 on one and do that myself.

    Well Xonar is on the same connection as you, so either you are a big fat troll (Xonar) who has created a second account OR if you are not and live with Xonar, why don't you have a lie down and talk through your issues with Xonar who lists their occupation as Psychologist
