is it wrong!?!?

[Spartacus]

Hi guys
 
I\'ve owned a UK spec FD for 4 years now and have had one MAJOR rebuild about 6 months after owning it, new turbos the works!
 
Which means it should be good for a good while, but i\'m getting this funny feeling i\'m sitting in a time bomb... so i may do something very very bad!
 
I\'m considering doing a V8 engine swap, obviously not on my chasis but finding a cheaper rougher model.
 
Is it wrong?
Should i do it?
Anyone want my car?
Any rolling chasis?

These are all things that you need to weigh up yourself; no one can answer them for you. For some people it would be wrong and for others it wouldn’t. We each have our own reasons for doing things based on our own needs, wants and priorities.
Oh by the way if you do go the V8 route you we surly go straight to hell:evillaugh , join the club:mmmm .

I want to get this clear.... the reason mainly is reliability??? if thats the case  you would prob be better off with a different car like a supra or 350z?
I know the supra boys have started putting V8s in - but thats in the N/as as N/A - T set up doesnt produce the power of a TT - T. I also know that there a couple of V12s in supras now too as some people dont like th \'lag\' of massive single turbo set ups.
This may sound strange but after selling the supra i was going to buy a TVR Tuscan - but i was worried about reliability..... i called TVR power and they suggested tsking out the TVR lump (as in their words \'it will go bang\' and at the cost of £8k) and one of their suggested engines was ironically an RX7 lump.
