I picked up this firenza off of Stuart and dawn , but from the off it needed a v8 So between cups of tea and coffee jeff and myself hatched a plan , I still don't know what that is or was though As brought Didn't take long we got it around jeffs custom shop in sheppey with thanks to Steve and ade camel towing Engine box out then put the 5.7 in the hole and see where it fits It's got to go back quite a bit so we used my plasma cutter and jeff had great fun setting my underlay alight with it That was a few hours work but now the hole is bigger , but got to alter brakes and steering as they don't fit Due to us both having work commitments it will be as and when . I also made a v8 engine lift plate to make life easier Dazza
