Just wondering, if anyone else had problems making the Starter fit with the 3.0L Block?
I haven't really heard of anyone else doing this, but I had to "massage"(grind) the block
to make the Starter fit.
Has anybody made a DETAILED "How-To" website on the 3.0L Engine Swap? If not, I may go ahead and throw together a site.
Stupid little fitment issues have been a Pain in the Arse.
I have pulled, and dropped in the motor so many times, that my neighbors may start calling it my 1000 lb Yo-Yo.
PS. Just wonderin...has anybody done a sucessful 3.0L engine swap to a ATX Contique yet? and what kind of numbers did it make on the dyno?
A little frustrated, but almost there...

Bito I thought you were going to be the first to do the 3.0 with ATX.
