Thanks Art, and yes you are right. Swapping it yourself really is the best thing you can do for yourself. I have learned so much just from pulling the motor out of the clip, things that are so much easier doing then just reading about. I have seen many motor swaps, tranny swaps, turbo swaps, turbo installs, etc. And I didn't learn nearly half of what I have learned from just digging in and pulling this motor. But, being around those things has helped in eliminating the fear, and making this project go so smoothly. It really is just a fear, It isn't very complicated at all. It is a great experience to do the work yourself, because you really do enter a new world of understanding and knowledge of how things work. Thanks for the compliments art........JIM
