aziza z Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 well ive been working on this swap for a few monthes now. I was gona hold off posting til its done but i cant wait haha. Its almost there. Just have to finish some plumbing (new brake and fuel lines), wiring harness, exhaust, brakes and a few other little things and i think we should be good to go.

Bartman Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I think it looks great! I can't wait to see and hear it. Did you sign up for the JCCS? Maybe that would be a good unveiling for your newly v8 powered ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ragefear Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 where is the jaw dropping smiley??? I ask you! looks sick, I like the black engine bay! The real trick will be to keep it that way! That strut bar is sweet! Really stands out against all the black! I like it! What did you end up using for engine management and how did you tie it into the Z? what radiator did you end up goin with?
