I am having a little trouble in this swap. I should preface by saying that I am in no means a mechanic, and that the mechanic I hired to do this is having some trouble getting the fine tuning of this swap down. Here is what is goin on. I bought the 1998 max with the vq35de swap already done, it had a spun bearing and chucked a rod through the bottom of the engine, this is before i got the car. I bought the car, had it taken to my mechanic, and bought a new vq35de to put into, its using the 3.0 cpu, therefore has the 3.0 timing and has the adapters to make this work. I should also say that there are racing injectors put into the old engine, that were taken out and swapped into the new one, (I dont know if this matters, but i know that timing and fuel injectors are related) The problem is the car is having a really hard time turning over, and I am looking for any ideas as well as any helpful advice other than dont bite off more than you can chew, i got that part already.
