6.0 Swap?

Whoever Said You Couldn't Diesel A Honda?

No this is not an April Fool’s Day joke, that’s a Honda Civic, and that’s a 6.0L...

We don’t know anything else about it at this point, but it’s being done by someone. Apparently front end weight will be a non-issue… somehow. We don’t know how, but nevertheless, we’re reporting it, you’re deciding on it.

I wonder what class this will run in? It may be odd, but at least it’s diesel-powered, right???

Anyone else seen anything 'odd' or 'different' lately?

1. i have a friend with six toes, thats still not as weird as that. That is pretty cool though.

2. OW MY....wow. The engine probably weighs more than the rest of the car! Thats like buying a Ferrari Enzo engine and putting it in a Ford Pinto.

3. I don't know, anyone having an extra toe is kinda weird under any circumstance. And I agree, the Honda is kinda cool.

I also agree that the 1,000-pound 6.0L probably weighs half of what the car does.

4. Did your friend get 4 toes sliced off or was he born with an extra one?

6. I just want to know what the Honda's strokers gonna be used for? How are the builders gonna get a drivetrain that can handle the 6.0L's torque under the Civic?
