I have an extra 6-bolt engine that's been rebuilt but the cars 7-bolt is still running so I'll do the swap later. My friend is asking for the listed parts for his new shell; Will I need any of these parts to swap a 6 bolt into a 2g? I have all parts that a 2g normally comes with. I don't want to screw myself over by giving him all the parts that I'll need.

I've read some of the 6 bolt to 2g swap guides but I'm still not super clear, thanks guys!


  • 1g Front case with 91 oil pump,
  • 1g timing components,
  • 1g arp head studs
  • 1g oil pickup tube,
  • 6 bolt oil pan
  • 1g motor mounts
  • Also waterpump pulley
 
You will need all of these except the 1G motor mounts. Assuming you will reuse the water pump pulleys (plural) from your 7-bolt, you won't need the 6-bolt pulleys. In either case, you certainly won't need the inner water pump pulley from the 6-bolt, the one that runs to the power steering pump.
