Engine Swap 444-544

Yep. While a B20 is a straight bolt in (nearly so for B16 engined cars) the B30 needs about 6 inches more length in the engine compartment. If you are going to add that much length then you might as well put something more impressive under the hood than a B30. like a Jag XK engine:


Of course the extra weight would offset most of the HP gain...
