pics from the SR swap (56k don't bother)

Post by CodyW »

yup, here's what goes on in a 507 style SR20 swap...

FOERST step was to take out a little trash
Image

then clean out the garge
Image

stare at the new motor
Image

put on some new goodies (greddy oil filter relocation kit)
Image

take off the pretty valve cover
Image

put it on the new motor
Image

throw a tractor turbo on for good measure
Image

uh...i'm not sure what's going on here
Image

let everyone know what you've got
Image

blingin' new intake plenum
Image

painting the intercooler pipes
Image

stripping down the old motor
Image

powered by rox
Image

sr party!!
Image

almost done
Image

pretty much done (only things that have changed are a few more zipties and a shorter oil filter that's blue)
Image

and that's about it.
also, we i did take it out for it's FOERST voyage last night and she did pretty good. blew one intercooler pipe off but other than that it sounded and felt pretty damn smooth so far. i stayed pretty calm with the throttle and hitting boost but it still feels like it's gonna be a really strong motor. the only other bad thing is 1 of my injectors popped out of the fuel rail but a bit of pushing and a zip tie fixed that this morning.
now, i just have to put my interior back together and get it tuned and i'll be back for good!

also, i've already said it but thanks so much to every one of you guys (and girls) for helping out with this, you guys are awesome!!!!

Cody, those pictures are so misleading. Your garage isn't near that clean! Glad to see it back together and hear it run. Get it sorted so you can go kick some Camaro ass.

That swap looks sweet. I Too love the oil filter relocation. Pretty nifty. I love the garage! I wish I had a place like that to do work on my car. All I have is a parking spot and some pavement in front of my shitty apartment building. :( Heh.
