Default C3 - C5 Transplant

A few years ago, there was a shop called Philadelphia Motorsports owned by a guy named Bob Lima. They custom built frames to run C5 engine and transmission under a C3 body. I can't find them anymore...did they close? What happen?

That would be a pretty nice upgrade.

You might want to check out SRIIImotorsports also. They make a nice little setup that does similar stuff. There is another company in Alabama that does some nice work along these same lines. I cannot remember the name of the company though.
