Hey i was wondering if it's possible (anything is) or worth it to attempt to switch a fwd to an awd. i know you'd have to mess with a lot of stuff but i was just curious.

Going from AWD to RWD is not nearly as expensive as FWD to AWD. I helped make a RWD car from an AWD 90 for a Hornet racecar. Just weld the viscous coupling and disconnect the joints in the front shafts and put just the shaft ends back where they need to go. The racecar came sideways around the dirt track corners like a RWD V8 streetstock. Sweet setup.
