hey sorry I missed the post, I just now got back to the board. sure, Ill go take some pics now and post them later.

Engine, ECM, Harness --- $1500
Fuel Pump --- $75 ?
VATS Module --- $100 ?
Clutch --- $165
Custom A/C, PS, Fuel lines --- $50 (we made them)
All the misc sh*t --- who knows!

I think in the end it has cost close to 3 grand to do the swap, there is a BUNCH of little stuff that you think of at the last minute then forget a month later. We saved a LOT of money by doing the wiring harness and lines ourself, though it took alot longer to finish. After a year, I just had to replace the clutch and get the flywheel machined this past weekend, but something was completely screwed with the last one because I got the same replacement clutch and now the pedal forces are atleast half of what they used to be. After I finish this Ill run take some pics for yall and have them posted in a little while. feel free to e-mail me if you've got any questions.
