Engine Swap
So, I got back into the game after a hiatus, quite possible this is a total noob question but, for some reason I can't swap out the engine in my car, specifically I'm working on a Bolt Rollett and want to switch out the V8 2carb OHV it came with with a V8 HEMI. I do know that the V8 HEMI is swapable given it is in the rectangle at the right in the status panel (unless the V8 HEMI and V8 OHV HEMI ae two different types of engines, though, given the V8 HEMI uses the OHV parts and I could not find a 2nd HEMI engine I kinda doubt it). Though, somehow whenever I want to out in the engine via the crane, the game says there are no items to work with.

Here are some screenshots:
As you can see, the HEMI is included in the swap options

And my engine is a HEMI (again, assuming there are not two HEMI engines)

In the order of the pics:

1. The OHV HEMI (426) is in the Plymouth Roadrunner
2. The V8 HEMI (392) is in the Jeep Cherokee SRT8
3. The HEMI Shaker is in the Plymouth Barracuda
4. The V8 OHV HEMI B is in the Dodge Challenger Hellcat
5. The V8 HEMI B 4X4 is in the Dodge Ram 3500
6. The V8 HEMI B 2X4 I can't remember off the top of my head
7. The V8 OHV M (5.7L HEMI) is in the Chrysler 300C SRT8

8. I probably for sure missed something. :D

Hope this helps. Cheers!

Has to be exact same name as V8 OHV Hemi, when swapping.

Have not seen a V8 Hemi yet, but i always duplicate manufacture spare engines for storage.
I have V8 OHV, and V8 OHV B ( maybe modded engine ) if i recall.

Okay, I searched up and down now but when I want to create an engine at the engine stand I for the love of me can not find another HEMI, do I need unlock it or something?

If you can't find the ' engine type ' on the ' engine stand '.
Will need to use the car itself, that have default engine type, to insert a block, put in a few parts, pull out, place on stand.

Saw a V8 Hemi.

Alright, will that somehow unlock the V8 HEMI on the stand or will I have to keep the car I found the original in to "jumpstart" all further V8 HEMI constructions of mine?

Oh also, from what I understood from the above, the V8 HEMI that you saw (and that I built), is NOT the same engine as the V8 OHV HEMI (despite using OHV parts)
