Garage Talk / Engine swap or not?

« on: March 15, 2022, 03:22:56 AM »

Guys,
Need a bit of advice/opinions on this one. My friend who owns a '69 Camaro wants me to do an engine swap...a Brand X engine swap. I'm trying to 'convince' him to stay with the intended engine (Chevrolet). Yet, he is sticking to his convictions for the other brand. I asked him 'why?'. Said he wants to be different than the norm. I'm not shy about doing custom work such as this. However, in this situation 'I' don't feel it is right. Should I do it, or not?

I'm sure this topic has been beat to death. However, I have a question: Was this type of Trans-Am fuel filler made by one company for all competitors OR was made by each team? Jon?

I'm watching a series on 'Big Red' penned as "The baddest 1969 Camaro", and I have to agree. RJ's Camaro is an impressive performer in all aspects of competition. What do you think?
