V6 conversions

[trumby]

Can you use the Ford 3.0 v6 or the GM small 60 deg v6s.

The small GM V6 has been done and the 3.0 Ford V6 would be a similar fit. You would have to get creative with the Alpine steering and exhaust. The 2.8 Ford V6 is the best for clearance there.

If you are interested in doing a conversion to your Alpine take a look at the conversion components I designed for the FORD 2.8 V6.

There is another good reason to use the 2.8 Ford V6. It is a light engine. I recently came across a list of engine weights and the 2.8 was about 360 pounds.

I've done the GM 60 deg v6 which made my Alpine a fast car, but I can't recommend it due to clearances, it's a bear to fabricate parts.
