latest project for a bit of fun lol

Well at my work we are currently building a mk2 escort with civic type r engine but things are slow to say the least, At the last gravel sprint the fuel got mixed up so the chevette was running race fuel which lead to it melting a piston, we also have a yamaha 750 superbike that was going to get sold so idea came up pop it in the chevette for gravel sprint in auguest :)

That reminds me, I want a 6R4.....

maybe a 3l omega/vectra v6 in the back of a nova, using a frontera gearbox (or a monterey v6 & box & a pair of cally 4x4 back diffs might be worth a project.......????
