i have an 89 that my timing chain broke on and i have 3,000 saved for my rb25 frome joule motorsports in colorado springs i haven't done it yet but am planning on it and can give you joules number and help out when you do it. go to unstable hybrids .com and they have an engine and transmission mount conversion for rrrb motors and they can do your wiring harness so u can bolt it in and start it up with everything.

are you doing the swap yourself or having joule do it for you? are these guys worth a damn? i'll be going down there and checking out the place this upcomming weekend. i may have to take you up on the extra set of hands. are there many other RB25 240's around here?

from what i heave read on the various forums, Unstable is going out of business. there is something about a classaction suit against them. i have been by their shop before i got out here in COlorado and what a Fing pig-sty. go with the Mckinney. i have heard good things about them and they are helpfull to all my questions. hope thats what you were looking for dude.

Good to hear other people in colo speakin up. I'd help ya with the swap but i wouldnt have a clue as to what im doing, but i would love to see an RB powered 240 in person. Well good luck. Off topic but would someone finally get Colorado meet off the ground, i know Aleph1 and a few others are ready and willing, just need time, place, and good scheduling.
