86 Mazda B200 BEEF UP
 

Hey all, I was wondering what else is involved in an engine swap from 80 hp to about 300.

I know the Engine, Engine and tranny mounts, tranny, remachined & strengthened driveshaft,
new stronger differential that spins both rear tires, new shocks, bigger radiator...
Maybe raise up rear 1-3 inches for slightly larger tires (burnout preventative).

Is there anything else, any suggestions, etc?...
I Have Current (still 80HP) pics, although they may come later, just need time for webposting.

Oh ya, I am thinking of putting a chevy 350 engine in.

I dont want to sound negative but I think youll probably spend less buying a new car with more HP and building it up. If your still gonna do it how about givin us specifics like what size the current engine is, if its front or rwd, what tranny it has, etc

Aight
 

current Engine is the stock B200 engine a 1998CC engine Straight 4, What other specs are you looking for?
I will get a Manual 350 tranny, and new knob/connection to tranny so it will fit. I have totalled the costs up: a rebuilt 350 fuel injection engine approx $1200, other stuff totalled $1800-2300... one other good thing is that I'll be doing this myself, with the help of friends (some are Mechanics) I love the body style of my truck and how it handles( I know that will change) but I just REALLY like my truck, I just would like more power. I know that this swap can be done relitively easy, I have found custom motor mounts for it too.
