I think of them as two JDM engines put together in a V config
On the subject of those other cars... none are like a 240sx. Corvette is a flashy wana be with some uncouth transaxle to deal with. Camaros and their ilk are easily 1000lbs+ over the 240
None of them are surprising like a 240
And wow factor is a silly reason to hold a car back with an inferior engine and potentially less reliable
I'm just trying to save people some money and gain some performance in the process and maybe even profit along with it

I guess I never considered that a JZ/RB could be inferior to a single cam pushrod engine out of a chevy tahoe. Eye opener for sure.
