2.5L -> 2.5L engine swap - 06/20/05 07:21 PM
Last week I found a rear-wrecked '98 CSVT and am buying it with a salvage title today. I went to see the car on Saturday and heard the engine run. It purrs. I hope to pull this engine and place it in my '00 CSVT, since I spun a bearing in that one.
So, does anyone have any advice or warnings for me? Any major differences that'll bite me between the '98 and '00 engines?
Any members in CT interested in helping out? Or, looking for a parts car once I get the engine out of the '98?
I'm hoping that in a year or so, I'll be able to use the heads, etc. from my blown engine to do build a 3.0L hybrid, and do another swap.
