[QUOTE="scottydsntknow, post: 14991007, member: 79824"] Well, next week is engine pull time unless something comes up. I've got the whole week off and my father has the whole month off so he's coming over to help rip this sucker out. Then its just a matter of pulling the BBK tuned ceramic headers that came with the car that ARE ALREADY RUSTING (BBK needs to get its shit together with ceramic coats) and sending them out for a blasting/coating. Soon as they come back the new motor is going right back in. As far as getting the car to Wicked... I'm going to call him and see if he can get me a startup tune on my SCT just to get the car on a trailer or get it out to him once I get everything else on it but I don't plan on really starting it up or driving it seriously until the spring as its going to start getting cold here in the beginning of October. I just want to get it ready to go over the winter. I think he quoted me $600 for a tune/dyno time total but that was a few years ago for my 98. I would have to call to get a new quote that is current. I also want to see how much he'd charge to grind off the freaking part length subframes that are on the car now and weld in some Spintech subframes as they tuck right up to the floorboards. Also decided to not re-finish the original wheels (yet) and just go with a 17" staggered FR500 setup with Mickey Thompson Street Comps for the time being. $1150 or so shipped to my door ready to mount with my military discount, really can't beat that and 315s out back to boot. Only reason for 18s really is looks IMO and I think I've finally got that out of my system. I want this car to hook like a mofo when I punch it. ALSO need a replacement PI intake as the one on the car is leaking and the one on the replacement motor is warped in the spot they ALL warp under the tstat housing. Then some new Energy suspension motor mounts while its out and easy, stage 8 locking bolts for the headers, new plugs, COP rebuild and an injector rebuild for the 15 year old #42s in there and that should be everything I need. Only thing I am sketch about is getting this CX Racing intercooler routed properly but I'll figure it out. The thicker Fluidyne radiator the car has might be a bit of an issue but like I said, I'll figure it out lol. [/QUOTE]
