Show your engine now !!!!! Reply #167 – January 09, 2011, 10:15:09 AM Mine was a work horse for 21 years.....Had to let it go. It was either rebuild it, or replace it....I went with the replace option, since I had an entire parts car, with everything I needed for the swap..I will really miss this little V6....I used to spin that tire with it all the time.

Show your engine now !!!!! Reply #176 – January 12, 2011, 04:33:43 PM That looks great 347thunder. Moving the battery to the back frees up a ton of room. I think that will make a nice summer project for me. Is that cover for the coil aftermarket or did you make it? Quote Selected
