Hey Yonnee,

Skewze my ignorance but why is a 253 gem 'just silly?' (Refer earlier post today with reference to St.Machine Mag) Exactly what would be required to get a 253 Gem engineered?? BiggGG Brakes - what else? In the ACT (where I'm currently living) it seems anythings possible and as such I still haven't ruled such an option out for my TD Coupe rebuild. Anyone else with comments also welcome....

Benjamin was talking of all these other cars he's seen with BIG motors, but apart from "booik" V6's, he hadn't seen any "silly engine swaps in Geminis".
I'd think you would need some sort of chassis strengthening to get passed. With time and money, anything is possible. Hey, as a friend once said, "With patience and perseverence, it's possible to push a peanut up a porpoises penis!" lol

Yonnee.
