After a long day of bitchn and bustin knuckles, My buddy and I managed to do a complete motor swap inside of a days work, in a garage with hand tools and jack stands. Got the motor fired up for about 3 seconds then killed it because we realized we didnt hook up vaccum lines yet amongst other things. Will get back to work on it tomarow morning and hopfully have it on the road by late noon.

Thanks everyone, Its all done now. Feels alto stronger with the new PI motor in it, aside from a few setbacks it all went off without a hitch and had it all done and driving before 24 hours of starting. My buddy was a big help and we got it done alot quicker than we thought we would. Some pics coming ina minute or 2.

Thanks, No unfortunatly i did not do cams. I am flat broke and in debt a little now that i have a credit card and other bills (school, insurance, ETC) so i cant put any more money in it right now, especially since a set of cams and springs for a SOHC motor go for about 600-800 bucks, i will get it running strong and spray it 75 shot or so until next year then pull it and do some forged internals and cams,
 
Good job, fellas. I like the Cobra R hood and the Saleen spoiler. Any extra parts laying around? Like a new belt tensioner.:icon_mrgr
 
That sure looks like Jason McD giving you a hand, that kids a pro at the all night motor swap. LOL
