Is it a 3.0 motor a 420a.

Ive been thinking about doing a 3.0 swap but i dont wanna go threw another trannsmission.

Lol sorry. I had a brainfart. I thought the 3.5 wouldnt fit in our cars.

That's what everyone told CMC too...........

and just to brag about beeing always right

6g71 2.0 v6 very rare and not the 2.0 that we know

6g73 2.5L your cars

6g72 3.0L the engine easy to swap

6g74 3.5L the engine harder to swap

6g75 3.8L with or without mivec head

Alain

its been done a few time already before cmc did it. whoever told him it wouldn't fit should research first

i will try to get video/pictures as soon as i work out the other demons, non swap related http://asog.net/component/option,com_smf/Itemid,30/topic,4244.0

so if you can help...^^^^

97avengerguy:

the majority of the infomation i got was from the 3g board and from roberts old site(see 1st page)...however not everything was spelled out and i did things alittle different (like keeping the : A/C...engine to trans braces, etc..)


look at pages 2 &3...

that was the most fab work i did...

if you have a angle grinder, finger grinder (cheap one from "Harbor Junk" will do), sawz-all, and a welder (a 115 MIG will do to tack things together, then bring it to someone to weld it up completely)

i would say the biggest issue was the Down Pipe... because it needs to be wider(from manifold to manifold) and taller.
secound biggest... the half-shaft engine bracket...it needs to be milled down to fit correctly (or if you are surgical with a angle grinder if a can be down that way).  on the 3g site... they refer to using the 6g74 bracket...i would have tried this, but i had no idea how to take the bracket off of the half shaft.


if i had to do it again, i think i could crank it out in about 3 days...okay maybe 4...

i would like to slap some pistions in from tearsome performance...i think they are $700, then throw a 150 (or more) shot at it (with supporting mods)
