    pondering the idea of a v8 3rd gen swap

    wow, good find! That guy needs to post up some tire smoking burnouts. Not sure that is enough radiator to keep a v8 cool and would also like to see a v8 fit with a front diff (maybe with a dry-sump). I just sold my FUNrunner, it would have been awesome with V8 power, just to heavy for the...
