swaping blocks looking for tips

hey ever one i have a 97 gsx i rolled the number 3 rod bearing on my crank i was looking for parts and the best think i have found so far is a first gen bottom end but i hear the crank sensor is diffent and if their is any thing else that needs to be changed i know their is a ton of people that have the swap done i want to know if anybody can give input on swaping it in or a web site that can help or any other ideas on how to fix my car and some ballpark prices i hear you can run and engine mangment system but i know thats is pricey thanks for the help guys

do 6 bolts even have crank sensors?

not to my knowlegde

The 6 bolts do not have crank angle sensors, and the original poster does not use punctuation. The 1g ECU gets its signal from the Cam angle sensor. It outputs both signals. So you need to change to the 1g cam angle sensor. Its only about 15 minutes of work. Instrcutions can be found here:

Most of the info you need otherwise is at www.magnusmotorsports.com. I believe you go under tech articles, and its called 1gina2g. There is also a 1gina2g yahoo group. The magnus and RRE instructions were all I had when I did my first swap. I've done a couple since. Good luck.

Oh, and dont forget. The only 1g engine worth swapping in is the 6 bolt, 90-92 motor. See www.vfaq.com for instructions on how to tell the 6 bolt and 7 bolt apart by looking at (or feeling) the oil pan, before you buy a motor. If the motor is out of a car, you can also count the bolts/holes on the crank that hold the flywheel on. A 6 bolt will have 6, a 7 bolt will have 7 ;o)

hey thanks guys for the help i know the block is a 6 bolt and i can get the whole block for 150 complete. so i assuming thats a good deal thanks for the web sites
