Anyone ever tried a motor/tranny swap from an AMC into something else? My AMC Ambassador is done this season but the motor runs so great I hate not to at least try to move it to a roller but I don't want to build another amc body/chassis wise.

Just about any motor transmission will typically work in almost any car with the nescessary motor mounts, body clearancing, and steering modifications, etc. Sometimes a different oil pan is nescessary but just about any M/T can be made to fit into just about any car if your rules allow what is necessary to make it happen. What type of car are you intending to attempt to put the AMC motor in?

I can't help ya much on the motor swap, but any pictures of the AMC?
I've never seen any full size AMC's run around me.

What type of car are you intending to attempt to put the AMC motor in? Anything a little harder than the AMC. Car seemed to be very weak in the frame. Was just curious if anyone had swapped one of these motors into something else with some success and I'd go look for that type of car or failures and what to avoid. |
