DISCLAIMER: bench racing thread
I have a spare engine from a 1991 TSi that I'm tempted to do a silly engine swap with (FWD). Obviously I'll need custom engine mounts, custom plumbing, etc.
But what axles would I need?
I assume they need to be custom made, one end to fit the DSM trans and one end to fit the stock Saturn hubs. Is that correct? The cars are basically the same width. Not sure if that will help or not.
1997 SW2
Wheel base 102.4 in.
Width 66.7 in.
1991 Talon
Wheel base 97.2 in.
Width 66.5 in.
Here's a pic of the saturn engine bay.
The curb weight of my 1997 Saturn is 2,411 lbs ^_^
