does someone recognize this SVT?

[8000RPM]

it was a 99 CSVT, but the engine bay seemed a bit odd. i noted some differences from mine and my friend's csvt-s...could that be a 3L?

 

[69Boss302]

I see no difference.

Then again, I see nothing at all.

 

[8000RPM]

there u go. couldn't upload the pics.

from the look of the valve covers looks like someone replaced the svt motor with a regular 2.5:shrug:

 

[69Boss302]

I would have to agree. I think that is a regular motor.

that's what i thaught. the fuse box in the engine bay was very different from mine. but the exhaust tips didn't look stock...but they are not welded on there...but are one piece with the mufflers

 

[69Boss302]

what's different about the fuse box? All of them are pretty much the same in all the cars.

 

[8000RPM]

it is narrower and longer. the fuses are located in different order...i didn't take a pic of it though.

My guess is that's its a regular 'tour with SVT bodywork and exhaust. Did you get a good look at the guages? Maybe check the VIN#?

1 - Check the VIN
2 - IIRC the sticker on the timing cover should tell you if its SVT or not. Other signs, you could look for the oil cooler, brakes, etc.

It's an SVT, I know.

It's an SVT, I know.

LOL. :laugh: Boss has seen it ...and probably has pulled some parts out for us.

 

[8000RPM]

brakes, suspension, body...was all svt. i don't remember the gauge...not to mention the vin. i looked at his exhaust pipes and they were the original svt pipes. however the tips looked like they were polished...they were too shiny to be the stock tips. i thought that it could have been a 3l swap, but since i have never seen one in person, i guess it's not. looks like the regular 2.5l.

the car is like 50-60 miles away from my house, so i am not planning to go to that junk yard again. but the rear seats were in good condition. so was the trunk lid, reflectors, tail lights...
