It feels good as f**k when you are able to do a complete motor swap on your own with a lil help from my cuttys isp89lx n wichoms4 I finished a whole swap in two days. Here is some pictures from start to finish, and for ppl to say there to scared to do it just try it its not hard u just have to do a lot of research first time doing this.
Old motor
Everything out
In the process of putting it together
Completely done
Suspension
Washed and back on the road

Anytime cutty I'm always down to learn different shit and work on different cars. I love the best of both worlds ford and Chevy. That was a fun day slapping the k member and motor back in. Get ready because we're going to be doing the same on my notch soon when my motor gets done. Glad to see that full exhaust only TA keeping up hard with cars with more mods. I can't wait to see that b*tch with a stall and some more suspension work. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

Tags don't make it legal LOL so if you get popped don't be mad at the chip cause long tubes in Cali are a No Go!
Car looks super nice man love that color combo and the fact you did it yourself always loved the look of those TA's.
