Great job!


Could you make a list of all parts used in the swap since different people do it different ways and what worked best for you. You made it look easy lol.


Just a benefit to all the members here with documenting builds.

Thanks. Yes I will organize all my parts used. It wasn't too difficult. I've been following Dustin's V8 swap thread, Wutsai, Joel Spitsnaugle (Joel has a good write up on his thread(Sorry I don't know how to tag them)), and many other threads for the last 2 years; at the same time collecting all the parts for 2 years also which made the process not too difficult. The biggest hurdle now is just the electronic portion but there already is a solution for that; it just depends if you want to fork the money out for a Motec unit or utilize the less expensive unit which is the Nemesis. But if there are any questions or picture request, please feel free to ask.

I'm guessing you ended up cutting heater lines? Also do any swaps allow for keeping AC?

I didn't cut the heater lines. I just bent them down enough for the intake to clear. AC is retainable with Motec, Emtron, and Hydra Nemesis. I believe that MRS Collins is working on AC also that I'm aware of.
