Stirring the pot

I like all cars. One of the reasons I go to a show is to see variety and to pick up ideas.
Something I have seen on this site and others, that I disagree with is. Put a different brand motor in the car and watch how some will tell you how wrong it is. Its your car, do as you want!!

I don't have a problem with engine swaps. A friend and I were Mopar people, but he had a 68 Merc Cougar "roller". So we did a 440/727 install as we had the parts.
I had a 49 Merc, with a 303 Olds engine. A 54 Stude with a Packard engine. 34 Ford with a Caddy engine. Several others that had engine swaps within the "family", but not available from the factory. Back in the day that was called "Hot Rodding".
