if you call a swap just pulling out and putting it in a shell - that is easy. what about all the work to make it right. change gaskets etc make sure nothing leaks. all takes time. it really easy to do sr/ka swaps and you can do one a day if you wanted to as long as you don't have anything else on your agenda for the day.

About 4 5.0 V8's per week day in mustangs when I worked at a shop. When you do that many in the same car and motor its pretty fast. I think our record going from no motor and trans to peeling tire out the drive way was about 1 and a half hours.

Im curious , when you guys say you swap out the motors do you guys actually do it yourself or do you have a bunch of ppl with you helping or do you just take the battery off and say you helped with the swap? It annoys me when people hang out around you while your working and do ONE thing and say they swapped a motor with you. I dont have many motor swaps at work but I'd say im pretty fast at pulling them out. Took a ford windstar motor and tranny out in about 2.5 hours, could do it faster but thats not bad for the first time :)

I mostly do them alone, only cause I work alone.
I had some help, on one... but its only cause it was he car and I was doing it for free again! lol.... I know I know...
I guess I was just amazed I did so many, I been so friggin busy I was like damn thats alot of work, I recently shut down my business and now I have more work than I did when I was open for biz...
all in all.
240's are to fucking easy.
I wish we had a 240 wrench a thon... I so be a top contender! :keke:
I can take apart a 240 in my head... I know which size bolts nuts , extensions needed for what...
its bad. real bad.
8 10 12 14 17 19 mm sizes on 240sx 13 mm in sr's for garrett turbo's
a few larger sizes for power steering, and axles, but thats mostly it.
I have pics of shit flash in my head all day and night about them .lol like new ideas. and shit...
My nerdness has overwhelmed me. :duh:

most extreme shit is probably change a transmission,axles and clutch / flywheel at the track in about an hour.. haha
otherwise
ive done
2x engine swaps in one day.. but the engines where already out of the cars
ive seen people basically get afront cut in there backyard
pull out the complete SR
then
get there car, rip out there shitty little CA and do a full swap, get it running, install coilovers and weld the diff in oneday..
not as extreme as stealing 50 cars hahah
