Hey there i was wondering if anyone on here has done the swap from a 7afe to a 5sfe. I am curious about doing this swap. I have a 95 st and i have had it for 3 years and I am ready for more power. I know that the power difference is not much but lets face it doing a 3sgte swap on a daily driver is very expensive for a college student and also would not be able to drive it assuming how long the swap would take. I have been looking and i would be getting the whole clip from a gt since i would have to do the motor, motor mounts tranny axles and such. I also see that you can do a lot to the 5sfe as opposed to the 7a. If anyone has done the swap i am curious on how difficult it is and since i would be doing a lot of the same to do the 3s if it would take that much time as well. Any input is appreciated.

also i am looking into this because i found a gt at the junkyard with the full front clip, mor for like $200 and it sounds like a steal smile.gif

Thanks

Raves

do a 4agze swap. cheap, swaps right in, stock forged internals, supercharged, later down the road your can turbo it and then you will be set. win win situation. keep your wallet heavy still and have a semi fast car!!! slight mod to harness btw
