newb with a question swap question
« on: August 24, 2008, 03:00:24 AM »

so i have a 96 venge and it has the v6 with a craptastic auto in it. i was wondering if a 420 would be able to swap in the chassis, yes i will get the transmission with the i4. but as far as upgrade ability the 420 is more capable. thanks

Yes, it is possible. No custom fabrication required.

Because there is no cams, cranks, rods, pistons, stroker kits, can't supercharger or can't get a turbo setup done for the V6.  Oh wait, yes you can, never mind me.

I thought to swap in a 4 cylinder you need tons of work? 4 cylinder and 5-speed?

It's as much work as any engine/tranny swap.  And though I haven't done it, I have pulled the I4 enough to know that I could do it without any real issue.

Pull the six out.  Install lines, cables, pedal, ETC for clutch and then drop in the I4

The only thing I"m not sure about is the Cross member that one of the Tranny mounts is on.  I don't know if the six is set up the same way as the four.

I did not, but I have a floor bag now.  So I can wait on the stand, when I finish my basement I'll probably do a wall mounted unit now.
