Sup guys,

Ive decided that im going to keep the celi and i would like to put a new motor in it. Most likely a 2nd gen 3sgte...if not, a rebuilt 5sfe with a turbo bolted on. This wont happen until most likely this spring/summer.

I was thinking we could meet up to do the swap and manual tranny conversion. While we're doing it we can make a step-by-step how-to for everybody on the site.

things we need to work out if this is going to happen...

1 - location
2 - try to figure out how long this could take...doubt we can get it done in one day.
3 - date

you know i got your back bro. wink.gif

location - at your house
date - whenever you're ready

if it's a 3s swap. i doubt it'll be a one day thing. you'll probably have to spend like weeks to months to get it done. hit TEAM J.D.M. you know you need them biggrin.gif

Takes about a month to do a swap. Unless your jobless then you can probably do it in a couple weeks.

lol dr. tweak your my 2nd option... if i decide i cant figure out the swap and make a nice combo of doing it myself and taking it a shop..i may just drive the car over to you and let you go to town...and then just fly back up there when its done, so whenever your in the mood for another 3s swap...let me know.
