1972 Chevy Vega Gen Iii Motor
|
Gone is the Vega's stock 140ci aluminum inline four-cylinder, and in its place resides a 5.3L LM4 Gen III from a '04 Buick Rainier SUV cribbed from the salvage yard for a mere $800. Jeff Schwartz bumped the stock power rating from 290 hp to 400 hp by swapping in a discarded LS7 camshaft and adding an LS1 Corvette intake manifold he got off Craigslist for $35. MSD coilpacks and Aeromotive fuel rails and regulator dress up the engine bay and top off the pony count. Check out the fabricated engine bay braces and custom intake tubing! View Related Article
