Just curious: Has anyone converted a V8 to a 5cyl MC Engine?

Taka,
  I'm sure you've been following this thread and by know know
its possible.
  However, I'd like to point out that you will not get a Front
Mount Radiator.  Thats not a function of the front clip but that
shorter V8 Motor.  That gives the space for the Radiator.
Unless you do major mods to the front you wont get a front mount
radiator in there.  best to keep it where its at and possibly
try to stuff a big IC behind a V8 Bumper.  That I think is
possible from what I can tell from brief examination of the V8
Bumper.
