    Think about what we've got going right now... V8 swap, 5-speed swap, body-integrated spare tire carrier, tube bumpers, etc. Pretty cool...
    Cheap enough there maybe - I tracked down a local RHD VX a while ago - $27500!!!
    Cheaper for me to buy one Stateside, ship it here and convert it to RHD!
    The answer is more power! What was the question?

    So as i find a way to make this swap work i stumbled across yet another project (just my luck). I found a 1999 Isuzu Trooper with 108,000 miles and a blown motor. Just so happens that I will have a nice 1999 Trooper with the 3.5. Does anyone know about the trooper market? It is a one owner car from Washington state with a clean title. It will have my VehiCROSS V6 transplanted in it.
