damm. thats no good. Might as well pick up a 3500 if ya can. Would be pretty easy to swap for ya.

I have a friend that had many l67 engines that he would have sold me but im not too impressed by the times those things push out for the amount of fab i would have had to do, but then again his 3800lbs gtp can run mid 11s...lol

 

im going to scotch brite the one cyl wall were i think its cracked and look at it with a magnifying glass to see if i can see a crack, it has theese weird stains on the wall that run up and down in a single line, but i cant feel anything with my fingernail

im hoping its not cracked as much as i want to put a different motor in it im not looking forward to dropping the cradle out of it to swap motors

i already have to drop the craddle in 2x aleros to do a trans swap for a buddy

take the good trans out of the car that has a blown motor , and install it in the car that has a good motor but bad trans


edit

i wonder how hard a rwd conversion would be, i know a few ppl have done gagt rwd conversions before

 

anyone know if the saturn 4 cyl uses the 60* bellhousing pattern ?

specifically the dohc LLO

 

I've known of 1 successful rwd conversion on a l67 swawped 1998 gp gt. He back halved it. It's a bad **** set up. But it's strictly a 9 second trailor car. I can ask him for some specific pics if you want?

 

Is it a 1.8 2.0 or 2.2? And it cant be the quad 4 family either. If so it should match the metric pattern that our 60 degree v6s share. But I can't be 100 percent certain. There has got to be info somewhere on it...

 

naw having to backhalve it does me no good , i did see one on the internet somewere that was streetable ill have to see if i cant find that one


its a 1.9L junkyards are filled with them here the saturns seemed to be a popular car in this area , i do know that the motor makes killer power turbocharged

 

heres picture sof the cyl from when i took the head off , a lil bit of cleaning , and then alot of cleaning with a scotchbrite pad and some oil , still need to get my hands on a magnifying glass but i dont think the cyl is cracked

 

Damm thats one mean V6~


On the other pics i cant see a crack.... but a mag glass should tell you a forsure answer.

 

whoops musta copied the link for the wrong picture
but that is a 490 ci turbocharged striaght 6 diesel out of our bucket loader , i just did headgaskets on it not to long ago , now need to rebuild the front half of the transmission before next hay crop ,motor and trans together weight almost 2,800 pounds

as far as the cyl before i cleaned it it really looked like a crack , as of right now im 95% sure its ok but i need to get a magnifying glass to make certian

 

... lmao, you're getting old.

 

i am unfortunatly
