Title: Anyone swap a V8 into a 99+ yet?
Post by: 99Trackerconv on October 28, 2011, 08:34:02 PM

I've seen a couple older Trackers/Sidekicks with V8's in them but has anyone done it to a 99+?

I'd LOVE to see a dropped 2wd 4dr or XL7 with a LS motor. Actually I'd love to have one not just see one. LOL

Subscribing to this thread as I just found a fabrication shop that specializes in engine swaps.  I've seen kits to put a vortec v6 or v8 into the 2nd gen trackers.  This is a real possibility for me down the road.

Ive got a few honda J32 and J35 laying around and Im so tempted to slap one in.

Im not realy impressed with the suzuki H series motor. I got a H27 with long tubes and intake. crank pulley exhaust and a few other things and it is lacking.

Stock H27 is 185hp with 184 ft lbs
Stock J35 is  272hp with 251 ft lbs

Its a seriously small motor when with all my mods im only getting 14. liters per 100k.
