Thumbs up Engine Swap?

Hey guys, I would have posted this under the hood section but it is kinda out of the blue just want to get the general idea and thoughts about an engine swap. What do you guys think of a 20B swap? I dont know anyone that has done it, maybe change it up a little bit. Post your thoughts please

Don't. Just send InlinePro your car and credit card number.

Don't see the point in swapping out one of the most reliable performance motors for one of the least.. but that's just me, and I'm crazy. F22 + InlinePro + 500whp .. what else do you need.

I don't know for sure, but it has to be lighter than the F series.
