Does any have any experience putting a CA18DET into a 510? I have found lots on the SR20 swap and it requires driveshaft shortening, just wondering if its gonna be pretty much the same process as the SR. Any help will be appreciated!

It should be pretty much same process, but I know of someone you can email who posts here sometimes, but mostly at http://www.510driver.com

Just the basics for right now, I havent bought the car yet. It is in really good shape inside and out but the engine isnt very strong, and comes with a parts car, for 1200 canadian. I figured that the CA would be a good swap to do, being its very light. I just wanted to know what other modifications were needed, such as oil pan and mounts. Also what other options I have for swaps, as I think the original engine is pretty much gone. Thanks in advance,
