If you haven't done a swap of any sort than you clearly have no clue how to do one like you stated you do.

There is a difference between reading on the internet how to do a swap and to actually physically do one yourself.

are you really that ****ing stupid?

so the guy I know with the useless teg raced the 94 Si again and finally beat him but by only a fender length, so my opinion stands that the swap was useless.

$450,000... youre a ****in tool, stfu, believe it or not j's can be made fast without spending 100's of thousands. imports are not the only cars that can be made fast. give it a rest and stop trying to make yourself look cool.

I don't think it's so much wether or not J-bodys can be made fast with swaps, because I'm sure you drop a cessna engine into one and run off of methyl alcohol then yes, it will be fast.

Its more that no matter how fast your cavailer is, people will still call you gay behind your back because your driving a cavalier.

you are seriously a brick! I said nothing of a 6 figure cost, I just asked how much, not how many hundreds of thousands of dollars it took F*** Job.
maybe I wasn't bashing, I was simply asking a question, maybe I just wanted to know what the bill would be to to such a thing.

your so quik to bash on people when were talking about cavs. just back up loser, I only asked question. so STFU!

I'm just geussing off the top of my head, but after the car minimum you're looking at $15,000. Not really that bad.

Don't get me wrong, when I see a J-body that's trying to be fast, most of them are rice though, I stil laugh.

of course everything can be made fast, i've seen (on video not in person) 12 second escalades and 10 second silverados with T76 6.0L (both street cars ... errr.. trucks).

The point is that like sky kid said, you'll still be driving a j-body.

I'd explain to you why I picked a Festiva as a project, but you wouldn't understand because your a dumb ***.

am i correct?
douchebag.
Probably the 2.8L, 3.1L, 3.3L, and 3.8L V6s... as well as the older HO Quad 4s used in the Beretta. And no, I never looked into what engines can be swapped into it because I'd never even consider owning that abortion of a car, let alone do any work to one. ***.
