Justin, it's about 3 hours drive for you, sorry, by the time you got here you'd have to turn around and head back.

DTP I'm shooting you an email w/directions to the garage.

no problem DTP. We got the motor in, but due to o-ring issues (leaky ones) the motor didn't get to run for more than like 30 seconds (but DAAAAMMMMMNNN it sounds mean).
new o-rings are being bought on monday and installed ASAP and tuesday I SHOULD be driving the "sleeper" (est 200+WHP, dyno to come when I get more $$$)

can't even tell I swapped the motor (LOL) looks stock, except for the sound (wow ) for the 30 seconds it ran until the fuel started spraying everywhere, it sounded gruesome, like it wanted to rip the front end off at idle, my dad just stood there with his mouth open like "holy $#!? that thing has ballz" it lopes like a v-8 at idle, but the sound is faster. it's real hard to describe more than "mean"

I swapped in a modded HO quad (heavier cams, worked intake, worked exhaust, modded for 95 P/S, chipped computer), it bolted right onto the tranny, no mods at all, even used the sensors that came on the motor. Any 2.3L will bolt to the tranny (yes, even the 2.4L tranny since it's the same as the 95 2.3L) just have to put on the flywheel and clutch. I'm a little over 200WHP (estimated) with the CAI. I'll be even more with the header, once it's designed and made.
