How long did it take you to do the swap?

 

[SCMP3]

lol dude thats freaking awesome that ur motor lasted up to 200k+

Yeah I know. And im pretty sure it was the OEM clutch...

How long did it take you to do the swap?

To be honest with you. If you have all the right tools and an extra set of hands you could probably complete the whole swap in a day if you get an early start.

[SCMP3]

Thanks man. And also I agree about the money thing. I've been buying parts for this car for almost 3 years.

its 33% over stock tint. and yes i got it on the road as fast as i could. and the mount had 228k miles on it.....

s*** the mounts were the first things to get replaced on my car, after the WGA and exhaust mani gasket and studs.

 

[SCMP3]

mine was the exhaust mani gaskets and bolts also the first thing i had to replace. closely followed by the wga.

im sure the mm needed replace sooner but other things came up

 

[SCMP3]

I think the police would flip if I drove without my hood. lol

 

[SCMP3]

Lol I drove 6 hours in 2 states without it lol

 

[HKPRO5]

Lol hood looks awesome though.

You didn't get any bugs in the engine bay?

 

[SCMP3]

naw. but there was one place that they were adding a lane in one spot on the interstate and they has ground up the white dash line that divides the lanes.....and now i have white powder all over the engine bay...lol

 

[hornsfan10609]

Looks good man, glad to see that hood back on a titanium.

 

[SCMP3]

Yes I do love it. It makes my cf dg grill look more like ass then it did before though.

Looks good man, glad to see that hood back on a titanium.

[SCMP3]

I think that's why he said back on a titanium lol

 

[hornsfan10609]

Exactly, lol. It looks awesome with the CF grille. Thats one of the only aftermarket hoods i actually like.

 

[SCMP3]

No I agree that it looks good with the cf grill....just my cf grill is in terrible shape
