Default Power Swap

Have you ever swaped an engine with too
much power for the car???(no such thing as too much power)

I just got my shadow back on the road and it may have too
much power for the tranny.(no dyno on the new engine yet)
Its a new long block (not rebuilt) from a local engine builder.
They joked, "its been bored so far that it should have 3.3 written on the side". the only problem is that it cant get enough air, so i need a minivan throttle body, New stealth heads
(i should have had it made with better heads when i ordered it)
And custom $$$ headers. It all ads up in the end.
So far im into Project Shadow for around $3800 With much more to come.
