>>planning on throwing the engine in the back
I've been thinking of doing this as my final automotive project assessment or whatever you wanna call it.
I basically thought of buying a small fwd hatch that runs, even if barely, and a scrapyard one that doesn't, or at least the front end, and then cut and weld like a madman.
not sure if I'll be able to, though. it probably entails much more than I expect it to.

How would this work? Would that make it RR?
I wish I had money to do things too
Where did you find the k20a

It's kinda neat but I would never spend money on it.

Kek.
Better start saving up for CF, and cutting speed holes

Let us know how that works out for you.
>>15009488
You should just keep it in the front.

This...
What's your experience fabricating?

skip the supercharger and go turbo, you will save yourself some time and money when you want to upgrade and make more power. Plus with it being RWD you wont have as many issues loading the engine to spool up the turbo.
Although if you already have the supercharger, why not lol.
Also be sure to throw some pistons and rods in that k20 before you put it in, if i remember correctly the k20 ringlands are pretty fragile but the rods are strong. keep the stock cams for now.
