[DMCForum] Re: DeLorean engine swaps.

[tmpintnl@xxxxxxxxx]

My younger brother had an LHS with the 3.5L, and it could really make 
that large car scoot.  The only issue that he had with the engine was 
that it collected air in the cooling system in a similar fashion to 
the DeLorean.  One engine was toasted in his car because of it, so we 
retrofitted a DeLorean-style self-bleeder setup into it for the 
second engine.  Worked like a charm.  This is a very wide looking 
engine because of the intake system, so it would sort of resemble the 
DeLorean engine (sort of!).  Great choice, I think.  You could 
probably find a wrecked LHS or Intrepid and get the computers out of 
it so that the entire installation was integrated.

Question - Do any of the possible "engine swap" engines spin the 
opposite direction than the DeLorean engine?  Something to keep in 
mind.
