If u had to choose a different "brand" of engine and trans for ur ride what would u all choose.

Blown V6 VT commodore 5 speed
Hate tp say it but i would but either a XR6T moter in my VT or the clevo 351 with 9inch. Holdens look better but for some reason ford just build better, stronger and longer lasting motors. Maybe ford and holden should put their heads together and invent a holdord or something. Holden style with ford drive line.

I have been puzzled with this for AGES. One day i am planning to get a VH/SLE and drop in some awsome engine in it. I was thinking about the RB series engine first. I could get a 3L bottem end, bolt on a 2.5L head and supercharge it.

Then i thought about the 300zx engine but if i wanted a V6, id just use the good old buick.

The idea i have right now, is to get the nissan quad cam 4.5L V8 from a Nissan infinite and bolt it onto a supra 5 speed box and later on the track turbo or supercharge it.
