Keep stock front axle but change motor?
« on: April 10, 2014, 09:09:00 PM »
I was wondering if there are any kits or ways to swap the engine yet keep the stock front axle.

Is there anything available to do this? I'd like to have the options of other engines if possible.

hypereagle offered V8 kits back when the nest was in operation.  Not sure if he made the transition here to the den.
