:hs: Hey zilvians..i posted while ago for help swapping my sohc to a twin cam..and it wasnt really a good time due to some meets and autornd's bbq feed.

neways here i am again..asking once more for help swapping my twin cam motor.

the last time i posted MIKE ( odessa ) and THINKJDM ( mark ) came by to help out a little..

what we managed to do was...Pull out the sohc motor ( had rod knock) and clean up the engine bay a little bit...and i also bought some syko motor mounts so the engine can rest nice and firm..
so here i am again...

Here are a few parts that i need in order to get my car up and running.,.

1.) dohc gauge cluster ( i might have one..its pending )
2.) dohc s13 upper wirring harness ( i have a dohc wirring harness that came with the twin cam motor, but the guy that sold it to me cut a few wires..and honestly i dont know where they go to...I ALSO have the sohc wirring harness that came off my other engine. SO IF YOU KNOW HOW TO SPLICE AND PLAY WIRES I CAN USE YOUR ASSISTANCE)
3.) Dohc throttle body
4.) DOHC PS PUMP OR WALBORO ( i have the sohc ps pump, that we can use...but i'm not sure about installing it correctly...so maybe you can help aswell)
5.) radiator hoses and clamps

like i said..i am in desperate need for help..this is my final resort..or else i'm going to sell my fastback..and twin cam motor..and just by a RUNNING one THIS TIME..haha...

this is going to be planned around next week...depending on you guy's schedule!

i'll leave my schedule here..so we can work things out
WORK SCHEDULE:
monday-7am-4pm
tuesday- OFF!
wedsnday-4am-1PM
thursday- OFF!
friday-4am-1PM

so..if you are able and willing to come up any of these days i would glady appreciate you help!!

i'm trying to plan this on THURSDAY! FEB 2, 2006!

Round table pizza is about a block down the street from me..so we all can go each..and get to know each other some more..dont worry about the cost..just leave that to me :)

Here is my cell phone number so you can contact me and let me know either if you can make it or not.

dohc ps lines and pump. ( still pending on jason )
and that damn clutch line! that i snapped while pulling out the motor..

hopefully it doesnt rain on thursday. so we can work outside with more room, but if it does rain were gonna have to work in my parking space ( theres alot of room ) but we still might get a couple of rain drops on us.

so hit me up guys and let me know what still going on with you guys?

BigVinnie
