Not sure if this is the right area, but what the hey.

I have a '91 Beretta with a 3.1L in it. I want to do something that not to many have done and started thinking of converting it to RWD and dropping in a small block V-8.

What is needed to make it happen, or the bigger question I have is can it even be done

Thanks

If you have to ask, you can't do it.

Anything can be done.  The question is how much do you want to spend.   I did think about doing that also, just dont see the worth.

It's probably possible but check out the corberetta thread. If you wanted to do something different go AWD. I thought about doing it myself but after some research and thought it was too much time and money for me to put into my car. I encourage you to look into a project like this but be prepared to sink thousands of dollars into it. RWD conversion alone is gonna run around $5k. And good luck dropping a small block in.

considered it for maybe a second project car but don't have the $$$$.  I was thinking of using the old rear suspension cutting off the knuckles welding in a solid tube rearend, moving the fuel tank, cutting in a driveshaft tunnel, crossbracing the front subframeand putting in 350 mounts, or you know just a 3.8 RWD.
