yeah... i was thinking about doing this swap, i thought it was a simple swap too, but i found out otherwise, all the wiring is different, your A/C lines dont hook up, you need to re-do all your wiring pretty much... if you still want to do it, i have a 93 gts with a 5sfe and tranny runs and drives great, but i dont suggest swapping to a 5sfe

Thanks guys you just saved me a lot of time and money. My brother-in-law is the mechanic but not up on engine swaps like you people, he suggested the same as you. We are going to pull the engine and determine if it can be rebuilt. In the meantime I'm still looking for a suitable replacement. I posted in the parts section to see if I can find one less expensive than the junk yard, ($800.00 min.)

I'm in Manchester.

Reasonably priced, for 94 ST.

Hi,
My kid has a 1994 ST with the Fed. Can., 7A FE engine. I have the chance to put an engine from a 1993 GT-S 5SFE into his car. He spun a bearing and seized the engine. His car is a manual and the GT-S is an auto. The 93 GTS is a complete running car so I will have all the parts from it while doing the swap. We also have the help of an experienced mechanic. My question is there any issues with this swap?
Thanks,
