SVX Motor in a westy

This i thought was interesting. Mint looking westy with an svx motor in it. Now, the gf happens to be obsessed with busses, and knows virtually everything about every year and model of them, which is creepy, but if she sees this, she's not gonna let me pass it up easily...

Imagine, from 80hp to 230hp, most busses blow the engine from the lack of aero-dynamics and sheer weight, especially going up hills. The good thing is you can remove and replace hte engine in about 2 hours by yourself, less iwth a friend, as they're extremely simple, and relatively small. With the svx's 3.3litre H-6 i can't imagine how this thing would handle.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!

They've been doing that for a while now. You can buy a kit to do the conversion yourself from www.smallcar.com . They've got custom mounts, exhuast manifolds and everything.
