    Lightbulb 3rd gen lude b20a5 into 2nd gen lude

    Here's a 3rd gen 88-91 Lude b20a5 swap done into a 2nd gen 84-87 Lude:



    LINK: http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/762843

    It's said that the 3rd gen lude subframe and front suspension hub/knuckle assembly had to be swapped in as well....i guess to be able to use the 3rd gen lude axles. Then a little cutting of pieces and welding of the subframe...or cutting and hole drilling/tapping...but in this case, it's welded. Look at all the room up front for a turbo! I thought you guys might wanna see this. I know carotman saw this . Saw his name in the forum. Got more info about this carotman?

    nope. It's still a pure mystery to me on how he did this. Well, of course it's basicaly a cut/weld but U would definetly like to see more pistures of this.

    I see that is had been converted to an hydro clutch.

    I give thumbs down cause of the lack of room back there... but I guess the owners okay with it.

    Nice job on everything else.
