when speedsource did your swap, did they lower the engine when they made that custom crossmember?
I'm just curious cause my intake manifold is way higher in my engine bay. Could be just the difference between a 1mz and 3mz. -------------------- ----------------------6GC's FIRST V6----------------------

Yes, the crossmember did lower the engine. -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

I'm starting to dislike updates... No news = good news.
 Fixed: Yesterday cylinder #3 (middle, by the firewall) went down. Replaced the spark plug wires, but it was the injector.  All rear injectors (3) replaced because of pain-in-the-ass location. $150 a pop.  But, fixed and drives 110% like new.Coming monday: Flex pipe on exhaust leaking (y pipe), taking in for replacing. -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

GOOD JOB with the restoration going on. I'm glad the v6 trend is starting to pick up a lil bit in this community.
I'm curious were they able to get your ac working? --------------------  |
