Hey, does anyone have an engine hoist I can borrow? I need to take my old engine out.
Also, if you could help me take it out, that would be awesome.

Swap, swap, swap, swap, swap, swap!

Seriously, just doing a 2.5 rebuild? Right now is a bad time for me, normally I'd be available to help.

You can use mine, you have to get it from Kevin's house though, if He's not using it.

Kevin M · 2009-10-12, 05:27 PM

It's ready for the asking. Bring a wagon/Forester/truck to take it home though.

moose · 2009-10-12, 05:42 PM

Alright thanks Van and Kevin.
Kevin, could you pm your number and adress please?

moose · 2009-10-12, 05:43 PM

Scotty, I am probably going to get another vehicle for cheap and just build up part list for a swap.

Moose I can probably give you a hand if I have advanced notice. I will probably have to bring a gun though. You live in a rough part of town.

Thanks Juice. That would be awesome.
It is pretty rough were I live. The well off white folk are dangerous.

Be advised, swapping to a turbo setup will probably make your life hell if you are hard on cars at all. The stock setup is bulletproof simple. Just an FYI.

My own scattered research recently shows that a lot more people are playing with high compression low boost solutions, which is very tempting for me to do on one of the wagons, since I have nearly all the parts to do it right.

Actually Scotty, the low boost and high compresion is actually my goal.
