starting 3.0 swap


Recommended Posts

Im getting ready to start my swap from 2.0 to 3.0 and im making a parts list so far I have the engine, mtx 75 swap, wiring harness, 2.5l intake, lightning throttle body, and the computer.

 

I have some questions such as can I use the stock axles?will the stock fuel pump be sufficient? and do I need a hydro or cable tranny (mine is a 98.5)? Will the stock motor mounts work? And is there anything im forgettong?

You need the entire drivetrain to convert from 4cyl to 6cyl. Subframe, engine, trans, axles, rad, etc... all of it. Plus the fuel pump, engine bay harness, and computer (with the ignition key if it's PATS equipped). You are probably better off buying a 6cyl car to start with and sell the 4cyl car.

Cant really sell it, its my only set of wheels besides my c10 but I cant afford the gas bill for it lol. Around me there really isnt any v6's for sale but there are a bunch of wrecked cougars and cougars with bad trannys, only a dozen or so svo's that I know of...
