Did you get the flywheel too? The disc, pressure plate and throw out bearing retail for about $340 but can be had for about $250 online. The flywheel retails for $650 but you can get it for alittle under $500 online as well. For that price you might as well get the AASCO lightweight flywheel though. Or get a used one resurfaced if you find a shop will to do it.
no need to.
i resurfaced mine and it holds up right for now... but sometimes i got hard clutch issue and the engagment point is very low... i want to remove dampner and slave to see if thats make any difference

How do u guys think a 3G TL A-spec front lip would look on our car?
I picked one up for pretty good price today. as soon as i get the car back from the shop, i'll do some test fitments.
can anybody photoshop that lip on a CL?

Cleaned the engine bay somewhat




Subframe


Changed out the cam and crank sensors on the new motor.
Since i was transferring the sensors between auto and manual motors, i also had to switch out the rear cam gear plate because the auto sensors wouldnt go through the holes in the manual's plate. but it will work the other way around.

Havent taken the flywheel out yet, missing the 12 point 17mm socket. That will be done tomorrow and hopefully by afternoon the motor should be in the car.

Motor is in. Sounds Awesome and revs up very nicely

Have a CEL P0386 Crank Sensor code. I'll have to check into that later on. I'll install the wide band pretty soon.
oem fuel pump next to walbro 255lph

u can leave the motor in and remove the subframe. just need something to hold the motor while its up there, like a piece of wood that runs from the fender to the fender.
I'll make a video pretty soon. need to break in the clutch.

CONGRATS!
It occurred to me, why not ask for the alt pulley back? They can't use it without the other ones.

Rolled the front fenders today. The cheap roller sucked ass so I just used a hammer, a heat gun, and a piece of wood. I spent about 15m on each fender. Came out pretty good. I think atleast. No more rubbing when going over highs and lows. Only when i'm turning and on an incline. No flaring what so ever.
oh and forgot to thank the guys here for helping me out through out the swap.
Thanks Morgan and Stefan!

straight out piece of shit. didnt wanna spend another 100 for a eastwood.
The built quality is pretty bad. its loose at some joints so it moves around a little when u put the roller on the fender.
so dont buy it. Im gonna try to return it soon.
