can somone tell me what is good if i do go with a 6 bolt swap because i head alot of people sad it hold more compersion but is that the only thing ?>
 
Do you currently have a good running 7bolt? 6bolt swaps are done when you are replacing the engine, to avoid the crankwalk issue.
 
I think it's definitely worth doing but take your time with it if you have a good running 7bolt currently. If you go 6 bolt go with a 1G head and intake.
 
well there is people that told me that i should do that so i was like ok so i went to get a 6bolt block nd i still have the 7bolt block so i may need some steps what i have to do to get the car runing . so if any one can help me with that it would be great
 
if i swap a 6bolt block with a 7 bolt head do i have to use the 1g tranny because when i look a the 7bolt block in the front of the block and tranny it has 6 bolt that connect to the block but on the 6bolt block it only has 4 bolt so im just wondering if i can use the 2g tranny?

you cant use a 1g trans in a 2g............ and please use the search button!:beatentodeath::beatentodeath:
 
If you do swap out blocks go ahead and get a 1G head. It's gonna flow more air at top end which is where our cars shine when you do bigger turbo, cams, etc.
