You own a shop and do not have enough common sense to change out an engine?

1. Compatible Motor Mounts
2. Compatible Flywheel/Transmission
3. Proper wiring harness and pcm.

And yes I have done engine swaps on Hondas with a rotory (accord), v6 sho(civic), ztec(civic) and a 300zx(civic). I have done engine swaps on engines you will never see and on cars you have probably never heard of.

ok how about this, sell it and buy a 01 GT, cause its not worth it, if you really want go get a thunder bird SC and swap out the supercharger, and go to http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/, and get a set of heads, or a power pack, for the same price as the motor swap you will be in the mid to low 13s if you do gears, a detroit true trac and better rubber
