im not to worried about it right now, the v6 will be fairly stock for awhile after its put in, other than a few bolt ons
-
the tranny from my 2200 will bolt right to 60* V6's
-
yeah, its the same as what he has on the car, but its bent
-
it actually almost bolt in place with no frame work at all, just modified mounts
-
ah ok, well im gonna tear the engine down anyway so theyll be changed
-
this may sound stupid, but whatsan LIM? i dont know a whole lot about the 60* V6's yet
-
yeah would do the LNF but it'd be more work than the V6, and i have a severe thing about being different and original with my car, so ecotec is a no go, and i have easy acess to the 3400 more so than eco's

i would go eco but there to common around me, and ill be one of the only v6 swap J's in my area, plus my buddy down the road has a blower for the 3400, wether he will sell it i dont know
-
yeah you should, were trying to expand nation wide, just opened an ontario chapter recently
-
meh, ecotecs are to over rated for me, easier to swap? yes, but i want a torque monster of a car, so V6 is the way to go, plus i know where i can get a blower for it

not really any special story to me getting the sunfire, i had a 96 2 door awfulmatic sunfire at the time, really nice, smooth running car, turned out the rear sub-frame was rotten and the car needed ALOT of bodywork(never found out till after buying it) it also go run into by a tractor, so i kept that sunfire to make a buggy out of, and i started looking for another car, so i went to my buddy todd, who owns a dealership and junkyard, and i seen this goldish colored sunfire sitting there, i asked todd about it, its a 98 2door 5spd 2.2L, so i took it for a test drive, and loved it, it handled great, lots of pep, and very comfortable interior, so i asked him how much, he said $1500 inspected, or $800 as is, i payed him $800 and took it as is, its been more than a year since he's seen the car, and its come along way from what it was, Todd even asked me if it was the same sunfire LOL day after i bought it a few dasy ago

WTF!!! sunfire engine problems
dxdean3 replied to dxdean3's topic in Pontiac General Discussion/Questions
yeah, i took it for a good 5min drive and it came back to its old self, runs like a champ again lol -
ok so i was cleaning the sunfire, for the show tmrw, and the engine was dirty, so i sprayed it down not thinking and remembered that the engine shouldve been running, but now the sunfire sounds like it has a big loopy cam in it, and it runs a little rough, any ideas what to do?

the 225/45/17's were great until they wore out, the 225/50/17's were too big, they rubbed on the inner fenders, and tore my drivers side one out, and the 205/40/17's were all i could afford right now, plus they are the size i want so i can lower it without rubbing -
