#21599, "Motor/Engine Swap"




          

I was thinking about this for a long time, and I read alot of threads on this..
But is it a good idea to just get an engine swap?
(from a 420A to a 4G63)...
I heard I have to change all the electronics, like what (just the ECU and maybe some sensors)...
I would have to change the tranny and the axles, and all that, but I figured that out before (from reading about Honda swaps)...
And would I have to get a new wiring harness?, if I would, were would I get one from?
What about getting motor mounts?
Thanks

Go to the things we've seen before section and start reading. There are TONS of threads on how you will be paying close to the amount of a stage 3 - 5 kit for stock 4g63 power.

With the questions you asked I guarantee you didn't read anything.

If you have a few thousand for install, a thousand for the engine and tranny, and a month of downtime to kill....go for it.

I lost my flash movie, I need to find that again or make a sequel.
