Why would you do this? Unless you have a rebuilt title or something, just go buy a 6cyl... probably cheaper.

He didnt ask for your opinion on his situation he asked about engine and transmission swapping.andremike wrote:Why would you do this? Unless you have a rebuilt title or something, just go buy a 6cyl... probably cheaper.
You can do it but itll be near $4k to $11k which is what some people on this forum spent on the transmission swap alone. Youll need to get a new ecm or a manual one and manual harness and the new engine would need custom engine mounts to fit and youll need a stronger suspension for the extra weight if your going 2.5-3.5. Honestly tho this has been talked about in older posts

An engine swap will be a waste of time and money, particularly if you include a transmission swap. Most folks that perform an engine/transmission swap on the coupe are mechanics that perform the swaps themselves.
