still a headache Posted by tibbidoh [Email] (#1014) [Profile/Gallery] (more from tibbidoh) on Thu, 12 Oct 2006 14:31:30 In Reply to: H engine in a 99 as opposed to a 16valve, Slyde, Thu, 12 Oct 2006 12:22:45 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have a 74 99 that I put an 83 turbo in and it is still a bit of trouble even w/ the 8 valve turbo. If you have one of the late modle 99's it might not be as hard, but for me I had to make a front motor mount so that I could install the 5 speed tranie, build a bracket for the alternator, had to adjust the left and right motor mounts to center the engine in the bay, build an exhaust pipe, cut out the fire wall so that I could change the water pump w/o having to lift the engine, and of couse the transfer of the electronics & fuel pump set up from the turbo to the 99.
