G13k engine swap

[LamarS1231]

Ok I am aware that it is very possible to do a swap for a G13k to get about 100hp before mods. Will I have to get a wiring harness from a Swift GTi and will I have to do any modifications to the frame for the mounts? Anything I will need besides the ignition coil? How much do you think it will all cost besides the engine? I have a 1992 Geo Metro convt. God bless

well, you'll need a complete (yes, everything) wiring harness for a 92-94 swift GT, shift linkage, motor mounts, modify the frame rail on the drivers side to fit the GT trans mount, move the shift linkage stabalizer stud on the convertible transmission, gauge cluster, radiator, cooling lines, fuel lines, throttle cable, front hubs, front brakes, GT axles and center shaft, larger rims to clear the larger brakes(14"), Swift GT or better fuel pump... and probably more parts that I can't rememebr right now. If you can find a whole parts car, you'll be MUCH better off.

Lamar... why don't just buy Geosukigti's metro? Looks less expensive pal that get all that work done!

How much horsepower does that setup give you?

I don't have any dyno numbers yet, but with my 4.39:1 gearbox, it ran a 14.89@93mph amd 14.81@93mph according to Gtech, calculated hp was around 140(100 stock)
