What Is Your Dream Engine Swap? - Jalopnik

Jalopnik asked car enthusiasts to share their “dream engine swap” ideas—mixing engines, drivetrains, and sometimes even eras and brands. The piece notes that automakers don’t always pair their best engines with their best chassis, leaving room for backyard engineers and home mechanics to do the job differently. Readers are prompted to discuss ambitious swaps like an LS into a Geo Metro, a Honda K-series into a Datsun Roadster, or an EV conversion of a Lincoln Continental. The author also reflects on owning a 1976 Triumph TR-7 with a Buick 231 V6 and later considering a Mazda 13B rotary for a Porsche 912E.
