Hi i have a couple of ?'s

1. is it hard to a 6 bolt swap? the person i buying it from has helped put it in his car so he knows somewhat about how to do it but for me im a newbie at this

2. should i pull the tranny out with the motor? cause i got to replace the clucth any way or just leave my tranny in and put the clutch in with it in the car?

3. the 6 bolt im getting has a 1g head so is there going to be alot of senors and lines and stuff thats not going to work on the 1g head?

and will i need to swap the flywheel cause the motor is comeing out of a 2g AWD into my 2g FWD

also is there a picture guide that shows how to swap motors?

Okay, instead of telling you "use the search button" like you've been told previously, I'm gonna try to help as much as I can with what I know.

It is very difficult to leave the tranny in the car and try to put the engine in. Everything has to line up......"just" perfectly in order for that to really, truly work. Just take the tranny out with the engine, put your new clutch in, and put it all back in together. It will be infinitely easier!

Also, as I told you in your other thread, you are going to need a 6 bolt fwd flywheel. No matter how many times you ask that, the answer will be the same. Good luck with the swap, and keep us updated.:thumb:
