Syclone in My 88 Firebird
I want to applogize to whom have requested pics on my swap, I haven't been
able to respond till now so to whom ever is still intrested here are some pics.
If anyone has any questions please ask, It is still a work in progress.
I have allready replaced one 700r4 trans due to the swap this motor is very hard on them so im rebuilding a trans to hold up to this money sucking swap
my wife has been cheaper, But i'll give up my wife before i give my car.

Awesome motor and a very respected V6 however paint your engine bay flat black or something.... takes $5 and will make it look alot better.

That's good stuff, do you think you lost any weight with the swap?
I was thinking about doing almost the same, just with a 3.8 and some parts.

You wouldnt spend that kinda money for weight, you do it to be different or to have a solid base for boost. That motor is sick. GM should still make it today but they make gay 2.0l SC colbalts now
