1g swap into 2g, need help fast!!

[rcjohnson86]

Alright, I purchased a Galant VR4 motor from Jarco here in GA, I own a 97 Talon Tsi, and the 2g motor is about to give me the finger so I just went ahead and yanked it out and went out and purchased this other motor. The other engine came with everything as if it was just pulled out of the Galant, all belts, hoses, even the entire engine wiring harness.

Now here is the problem im running into, what I need to do in order to make this engine work in my car. I would love to use the 1st gen head if possible, but if I have to or if it will be better for me to use the 2g head since its brand new anyways. I am confused about what to do with the Crank angle sensor and the cam angle sensor. I have read all the info provided on the tech articles from road race engineering and all the other tech articles on VFAQ, I would just like for someone to tell me what all is necessary to do in order to complete this swap. I know about the motor mount, that isnt a problem. Its the cam and crank angle sensors, along with any others i should know about. Thank you!!

are pritty much all you need . Trash the vr4 harness and use its cass order the cass cable or make one yourself . Rember to swap the plug wires and injector wires if they pretain to your car . Also I would recomend buying DSMLINK ..

But do i need to purchase any parts, like can I just swap everything over that I need to the 6bolt block?
