I donno why but lately the FS forum is filled with swapped 6gc's for sale. May I ask the owners what's the reason? Is it because even after the swap, it still couldn't fulfill the speed demon in you? Got bored with the car? Think that 6gc's are getting old and can't keep up with the frequent maintenances?

It's funny cuz a lot of people are talking and asking questions about swapping, and at the mean time a lot of people are trying to get rid of their swapped vehicle..

while that may be true manny and lagos (my motor mentors wink.gif ) some guys want a shop to do it so that they can learn once they have the motor in. (my case) I guess some of the shop guys dont have the time or resources to do such a monumental task BUT for those that think their car is cursed because of a vac line and run to a shop... rolleyes.gif would be much easier to look it up here or ask somebody here

just my 1cent


and YES im embarassed i didnt do it on my own, thats what makes such a journey so fun! putting in your own work.

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.
