hey Kyle, did you get the swap from ZeroLift? they had one that looks identical last week when I was at their cruise-in.

oh and are you keeping the gt-4 chassis tag or the e154f tranny?

sweet deal bro!!! very exciting isnt it? lol

[96stgreendemon]

Well i finally had a spare second tonight so i thought i would add some pics.... and its about damn time

ended up unbolting the subframe and dropping the engine out the bottom, made life alot easier

MMMH tasty

Cams look great! not a mark on them, and they were that clean when i pulled the vc

So many questions can be raised from this picture lol.....

Soooo F%cking clean


For now the name of the game is maintenance, so far a full overhaul of the timing system (idler pullys, tensioner pullys, and tensioner), swapped waterpump and seal, pulled the upper and lower oil pans and cleaned/resealed. replaced oil pump gasket, front main gasket, cam shaft seals, and other misc things. waiting now on timing belt and plugs/wires to get this show on the road.... goal is to have the motor in the second week of july, but that all depends on if i can get this transmission or not, looking for an e153, found a couple but seller backed out, back to the garage for me!

lmao good shiit bro .. things are lookin good so far, did you already buy the clutch setup for an e153?

[96stgreendemon]

Yeah, clutch setup was purchased from southbend a few weeks back, went with their stage 2 setup which should hold up just fine.
As far as progress goes this week should be entertaining, I was on vacation this past week but did a lot of shopping for the car while I was there, sold the W2A system, bought the piping for my front mount, bought new plugs, wires, and a wolboro 255. Got my lsd inner axles, and found an E153 lsd that I'm waiting for, only a few small details left to get and we should be ready to go in! This week should be full of win! And on another note I want a clear upper timing cover lol, and may have found a place to make them, but would need at least 25 pieces to get them to make them, anyone else be interested in one for the 3rd gen?

holy $hit that$ alot of part$ while on vacation lol

[96stgreendemon]

So doing a slight tuck on the motor and relocating some vac lines, i am removing the factory boost controller but, can i also remove these two plugs?


And this black vac line here goes to the intake mani, therefore the cap can just be placed on the other side correct?


now this one, should be easy, the two lower lines in the picture are coolant lines correct? therefore they can be removed and the lines bridged together without issue? and that larger hose (from what i measure 1/2" ID that can be capped at the sensor on the tb or no?


and just a nice pic of the motor.... in a finished basement..... covered in car parts... i know looks like **** lol

[FORGMANN]

Just to help visualize you want this but 3rd gen ..

[mak5603]

I'd be down for a clear cover for 3rd Gen. Haha, my 10x20 storage unit looks just like you basement! Good **** bro!

[96stgreendemon]

Bump need some help with these vac lines

[DG_Performance]

Can't cap the large hose that is how the car idles. Needs to run to air intake box or intake pipe. I've never seen the vac line stuff u got sitting on the box of gloves. My gen 3 don't have em. Where were they running to...

[96stgreendemon]

Really starting to get pissed now, been waiting on my LSD diff for a month now, that's what's holding the entire swap up, and class is about to start back up which sucks because now idk when I will be able to swap. Just disappointed mostly
