Hi. I guess a little background info is needed... I'm a quite capable mechanic having successfully complete major engine rebuilds in the past. I have squirrelled away an extensive set of tools, floor-jack, jack-stands, etc. I can even wield a welder if necessary and am very good with electrical wiring and diagnosis. The short of it is I am not worried about the complexity, just looking for some space!! (My current condo living in Washington DC is not conducive to drawn out car repairs projects.) I plan to take care of the wiring harness adaptation at home and have researched suppliers for necessary parts so all should be at hand for the swap. Sure there will be surprises. Isn't that the fun and challenge of taking on such a project! Thanks for the input, Eric (This is pertaining to a Subaru engine conversion. Please read original post on 11/10 for background info.) |
