well have the right motor mounts now, my next door neighbor gave me some block mounts. i have the motor and tranny paid for just waiting on the tranny to come. now all i have to do is order my fuel pump, wiring harness, radiator and e fans oh and fuel line
well, i have the motor mounts bolted in....wow f that. im going to take your advice Redheartbeat and wait till i have the new harness in my hands to see what all i need to cut out and such forth.
do i need to keep my oil pressure, water temp sensors? or can i just run the new sensors in the motor and find pig tails to wire into my factory connections?
use the old sensors off the old engine and the stock wires that go with them. Mount the oil pressure gauge in the block just above the oil filter on the side of the oil pan. Water temp will go into the passenger side head at the back, similar to the one at the front on the drivers side. You'll need an adapter to make that fit or just drill and tap the head to fit the sensor. You could move it to the water pump if you don't have room or are nervous about using an adapter. I tapped a hole in my last pump just behind the tensioner.
