Im surprised no one has genuine interest here. but oh well.
Last few things that i think are relevant for the swap. Dont want to bury this in my progress thread...
the exhaust routing, is hard, there is no way to do unless you pay a pro, and that will be even hard, an nice y pipe connection, let along equal lenght collector. Im using Goukys headers, and maybe if you are using the original headers, but that may be a long shot.
To mate this engine to AWD tranny, rear bank header will be a bitch, to do because of the rack, and lines, and the shifter cables.

and after some free gaskets

you can tell clearance is an issue....

and im worried about the oil pain, sits too low, maybe 1 inch too low, i will get to that when i can, i may need to use a shallow oil pain, and enlarge to sides.
the hard part, that u stop and try to recollect where you left of when in comes to wiring, is also a bitch...

boy it took a while to know where i was...
after a while i figured out, i made a few wiring errors and not mistakes, i have to wire new obd2 lines for the engine, and i routed those to the IJ1 plug, well it would be easier to the II2 plug. So Ill do this in the main cabin and fix the engine harness later...
got some extra wires from the yard... you really need to get this plug, as there are no similar pins in all the harnesses

then extended those, (to be exact only 3 for CanH, CanL, and TC)

and proceeded to reroute, youll see its easier to do this to the II2 plug, less drama..
