I've been reading a little bit about how someone has found a way to install an electric motor and batteries in just about any car and attach it to the original transmission which can be either automatic or manual....they say the experience is just like driving the car with a standard internal combustion engine including changing gears as always with a manual tranny....'if' my engine blows in the future maybe an option will be to put a 400 hp electric engine in the car....now wouldn't THAT be fun to drive.....if the drive train can handle 400 hp....

Someone was doing just such a electric motor conversion in another thread. I don’t recall how it ended.
