    In my shop at school, we have an old buick regal, im not sure on the year.
    Anyways, they've dropped in a V8 Chevrolet Truck engine, and scraped up to Garret Turbos to throw on it. They're trying to do the swap for a cost of under 1000 dollars, and they cant afford short headers, so the exhaust mainfolds go through where the hood *should* be, and the turbos stick about 6-7" above the fender...Would never be street legal in a million years, but just something fun they wanted to do.
    Interesting swap, with a lot of work and cost involved...but maybe something you'd be interested in?
    i dunno
