Toronto,
After 6 months at the machine shop, I just picked up my 4g63t 6bolt motor with some new goodies on it.

Its the long block (head/block together) and also have the nt wiring harness in the motor now.

What I would like to know, does any one have and tips on puting everything back into the engine bay?

Motor is missing pulleys, manifolds and fuel system.

Can anyone who has done motor swaps give me a few pointers and tips on what I should watch out for or do?

I found it ALOT easier to completely assemble the motor before putting it back in. Not sure how tight the fit on an elantra is, but on the 1 ang 2g's there is plenty of room for everything to clear. The only PITA is the rear motor mount but it is less time consuming to bolt it in than it is to put starter, intake, and a/c back on. Hope this helps you.
