My friend after I beat his Rice burner by 3 Cars: " Well at least u could hear me comin wit my new exhuast."
now....why cant somone do that EXACT setup...but MINUS the v8...turn a 2.4 sideways and make that work....have a beefed out cav 2.4 with a tube chassis and fuckn RWD....THAT would be cooler
who needs the v8...not me, im fine with my 2.4...id just rather have RWD <br>

Like everyone says, with enough time, money and skill anything can be done. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2488207969&category=6163
a few people did this a few years ago... there were pics of it posted. it was a blue and white prostreet RWD cavalier.
most people dont do things like this cause fabrication is alot of time and money... and then once you do it....then what? you have a rwd car and have to setup the suspension.
chances are it might not be a streetable car at that.... thats why most dont do it...

there was a guy that put a late 80s camaro small block in to his 80 something cavalier hatchback. rwd an all. wasnt a drag car, just a daily driver rwd v8 cavalier.
How about that!!!!!!!!!??????? That's Freakin AWESOME!
That's not a Cavalier. That's a purpose built pro-street car that happens to have Cavalier sheet metal on top of it. <br>

i agree with zliner and fast97z24.
There's no trace of cavalier engineering left to say it's a cavie.
And a Blown, Turbo, Nitro, 2.4 jussst seems right to me for these cars.
RWD would be cool yeah, but what about AWD!!! now thaaaaaat would be cool. <br>

Notice: It does NOT come with an engine or transmission.
The auction is for the body and suspension. Lame. <br>
that is a poor job too. I am dieing to put an ls1 six speed in my 97. I just cant justify that project. Its still a cavalier ls1 or not........
Its a unibody sitting atop S10 frame rails... gehy.

A streetable rwd setup would kickass and preferably a v8. <br>

why would you want 4 less cyliders, not to mention you lose more horsepower by the time it gets to the ground with RWD.

Actually, RWD is around 5-8% more efficient than FWD, due to the fact that the energy undergoes fewer changes of direction. <br>

unless that rwd happens to be in a fiero.........

i think the fwd northstart v8 would be a good swap into a cavi, if it would fit.
I wonder how well it handles?

Noise doesnt add horsepower. Horsepower adds noise.
