Why Would You Swap Your Engine?
An engine swap isn’t just about replacing an old motor—it’s about unlocking more power, reliability, and performance in your vehicle. Whether you want to build a track beast, a daily driver with more horsepower, or a weekend warrior, swapping your engine can take your ride to the next level.
🔥 Top Reasons to Swap Your Engine
More Horsepower & Torque – A modern engine swap can double or triple your horsepower. Swapping a stock 200 HP engine for a 6.2L Hellcat engine with 700+ HPor a turbocharged LS3 pushing over 1,000 HP means serious gains.
Better Reliability & Efficiency – Older engines wear down over time, leading to breakdowns, oil leaks, and expensive repairs. A modern LS, Coyote, or Hellcat swap gives you an engine designed with better materials, better efficiency, and longer life.
Customization & Performance Gains – With an engine swap, you control every aspect of the build. Whether it’s a built stroker motor, supercharged setup, or twin-turbo monster, a swap allows you to create your dream car.
Modern Technology & Fuel Efficiency – Many classic cars and trucks have outdated carbureted engines. Swapping in a modern fuel-injected LS or Coyote engine means better gas mileage, smoother performance, and updated technology like electronic throttle control and variable valve timing.
Availability of Aftermarket Support – Platforms like LS, Coyote, and Hellcat swaps come with huge aftermarket support. This means you have access to performance parts, tuning options, and swap kits to make the process smoother.
