I threw a rod straight through my 2.2 block. was going to scrap the car but found a 2.2 with 5 speed for $300. I have it at my mechanics place, he pulled the engine and noticed the distributors are different. Did I just make a big nono or do I have options? I'm assuming this is because its obd2 going in an obd1 car. I thought I was going to get lucky and just connect my harness to it
 any info or ideas help. Thanks guys

Won't be a problem.
Use your harness, and you need to change the dizzy and a few other things, nothing major. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=18338 pics are gone but the info is there ^^ -------------------- |

Distributor.
You use the 98 block with everything else from the 95 including manifolds, distributor, wiring, and sensors. There will be one extra sensor on the 98 block that's not used, the crank sensor. Just leave it unconnected or take it off. Make sure the shop does a timing belt and water pump before installing the engine since it's a cake walk when the engine is out of the car. It would also be wise to reseal the valve cover with new gaskets and probably to just do the oil pan gasket while it's out of the car as well, common leaks on the 5S engines. Taking a peek inside will tell if the engine is clean or sludged up and prone to spit another rod. -------------------- |

He went to pull the engine off the dolly and the pan leaked all the oil out that he just put in the night prior lol. All said and done $300 for engine and tranny $20 for headers $60 for exhaust $70 for water pump and timing belt kit $20 for front tranny mount $35 for rear tranny mount $20 for valve cover gasket $10 for oil pan gasket and $800 to pull the old engine swap all the 95 stuff to the 98 block including clutch and flywheel and put it all back together and drop it in. |

Heres the hole I blew in the block http://s1172.photobucket.com/user/littlelen1/library/ somehow the wrist pin disconnected and left the piston at tdc and the rod was free to do whatever. Ended up smashing off my ac pump lol. Ill have more pics later if anyone wants to see.
