Is putting a LS in a mustang wrong?

[ChickenLips]

I had a neighbor with an original mini and 350 chev motor wedged in. The drive shaft was no more than 6 inches long. Major engine encroachment into the passenger compartment, solid rear axle. I forget tranny but assume auto. I heard it start and run a few times but never witnessed it rolling. He moved a few years back.

Wow thats a shame, those cars are awesome in original form, they’re truly something special. Were I to do anything with one it would be a Dohc honda/Nissan 4 cyl swap, but to each his own.

^^^Would have to be some kind of mad scientist to pull that one off.

They put LS in Miata’s so why not a mini ?

It took a mad scientist, but I guess anything is possible

They have shops that do that here. Doesn’t cost that much because Honda parts are cheap and plenty. But an LS turbo in that little mini ? Hell yes!

Get a timing cover with a front distributor. Fi- tech or a Holley TBI on a carb intake and I bet you fool a few people thinking it’s a Ford power plant

If I had the money to do it - I would have done it a while back.
Seems to be much cheaper and responds to mods way better than my 2v.
