they will sell engine trans and ecu as well. look at the motor mall. they are there. call steve and ask him. he usually wont spilt a trans from an engine but he will sell just engine and trans.

to steve at HMO i have dealt with him many times, and
to larry at IAS i have dealt whit him twice and no issues there either.

Where do you live? If you are on the east cost go with Import Auto Salvage. Talk to Randy. Tell him Troy from MD sent you. He may give you a price break.

Let it go man! You aren't getting your cluster and I'm not getting my check for the shift linkage that was hacked off the tranny. Just be happy we both got our engines after months of waiting!

Delsolio....you suck. First off, take those lame *** Wal-mart windshield squirter lights off. There is now way Im going to put a C5 red valve cover under your hood with those lame *** 3 stage lights. I guess it would be kinda funny though. Buy Wal-mart out and get the underglo lights, the biggest wing there, and all the blue lights you can find....then roll up to Moroso with everyone laughin at you and turn a 13.6 ET.

Stop bein cheap and just go to raceup.com. You wont have to pay for shipping and you will be able to go pick up your own motor...meaning you get to look at what shape its in and wont have to deal with any broken sensors if there is any. I know H-motors garuntees nothing broken....but if something is wrong with the motor your a hop, skip, and a jump away from who you bought it from.

But dont listen to me, I havnt been doing this for 4 years or anything

Oh, and Delsolio....very top left of the screen you will see a function called 'SEARCH'. The folks here on the H-T like to use it. Very helpful. Dont be late for work tomorrow!

Matt...u suck also. This boy is so desperate he is willing to do a swap for me at 600$ labor! This is the "errand boy" I was referring to in a previous post. Did you pick up the ECU- Axles - Shift Linkage- Stock Motor Mounts- Alternator- -Clutch- Engine Harness Yet? Hmm making fun of your customer isnt a good sales practice from my limited knowledge. Oh and another thing...blue windshield squirters are the shiznit!
