as far as barely getting out of it's own way, you seem to forget that most of the classic american muscle that seems to getting blindly followed so often were 15+ second cars in stock trim, just like an old stock supra. add a bunch of mods and magically fast happens, jsut like with an old supra. i am having trouble seeing the difference here.
american engines are not now and never were the only motor swaps going on. get used to it, it is getting more and more common.

engine performance aside i dont think any car should have an overseas engine dropped into it period IMO although i can give credit where its due...and most muscle cars pre-power sucking emission laws were running pretty decent numbers...theyre only time loss came from hardly gripping suspension and driveline......stiffen the suspension and get some beefy tires and walla..(in most cases)
