Swapping Cars

[eclipse08]

Just one question. Right now I have a 95 GST with quite a few engine mods. I am looking to find a 97 or 98 GSX with a blown motor and just drop mine in there. My motor should just fit right up shouldn't it with all the same connections and everything? I know I'd have to get a different exhaust but is there anything else that needs to be done?

Why don't you just sell your car (w/o mods) and buy a GSX and then transfer just the mods? It will save you a lot of hassles in finding a GSX with a blown motor and all the engine transferring stuff...You're just making things harder for yourself doing it like that...Just my $0.02.

If you have heavy internal engine mods, then it might be feasible, but I didn't notice that on your mods list...

Actually I have added quite a few mods. Underdrive pulleys, cams, Im getting pistons and rods soon. I just don't want to take those out because it's a pain and I don't have oem pulleys anymore because they were basically #@%#@%#@%#@%. So I'd have to buy new ones and find my old cams. I just want to know if it's hard to swap my engine into the gsx if I was to find one.

If you have experience swapping engines then it should be pretty straightforward. You will need to swap your flywheel/clutch.
