Good luck Jason. Hopefully, Svxfiles will be able to pencil you in soon. It doesn't look like we'll be able to get to his engine swap this weekend...

Good luck with the swap. Be sure to check the pan of the new one for debris and metal shavings in it. Unfortunately that's what happened when I bought it for Tom to install and then I had to get another one...

Hopefully after this spring I'll be able to be the new holder of the lowest 4.44 1/4 mile time... sorry chike

And so we move one step closer. I found the tranny and diff. for 300 bucks. That leaves money for exhaust work and a few other little things. A new beast is in the midst of creation in the SVX world.

Sometime within the next 2 or 3 weeks. I'm not 100% on the exhaust setup, But at minimum it will get a new mid pipe, resonator, and magnaflow cat and muffler. I'll go true dual if I can afford it. I'm also gonna do the 15 dollar suspension mod and whatever little odds and ends I can afford to get done. Good luck with yours. hope it goes well for you.

[QUOTE=budfreak1]Well, As usual the SVX strikes again. Halfshaft 3 weeks ago, MAF died the day after

How many Miles before your MAF died? Is this a part to stock pile on these cars? I have spares for my other cars. As for the Tranny mine was done at 50,000 miles and I only have 74,000 currently.

Well, I had 137,500 miles when the MAF and tranny decided to poop and start pooping, So I think I did alright. It will probally last a while for as long as you don't mess with it too much.

DAMMIT Now that I thought about it I called the place with my tranny and they sell the front diff and tranny seperately. I'll find something else in a minute though.
