| On the subject of GT6 -> spit engine swaps:
................
| perforated body) all the people I spoke to wanted to drop a spit body onto
| it. The word from them is that you can actually drop a GT6 motor into a
| spit but you'll have to update the brakes and suspension as well, the GT6
| might have a stronger frame but I don't know about that, and that makes it
| more economical to just buy a rusty GT6 and use its chassis.
| Plus, I heard from a couple of people that you *can* put a TR6 gearbox
| (much stronger than the GT6 'box), but you have to get the right year
| of engine, engine plate and gearbox or it won't shift.
| *And*then*, he said, if you've gone that far (and he popped the hood open
| at this point and started pointing) you might as well drop a whole TR6
| motor in. But then the suspension's not up to par again, so...

The gt6 frame is not stronger. the body is! that's why they have a roof.
the trans ang rear end are weak and the brakes no good (ask the man who
has owned a few.) ;^) dickn
