Hey I need help on my z6 swap on my 95 del sol base model that i bought with a busted b7 and im swaping engines but I noticed that the b7 original engine from the sol never never swaped has two pulleys one for the alternator and ac I've read that the del sol base model doesn't come with power sterring only the si del sol that comes with a z6 but my z6 has a power sterring pulley and I'm having trouble making it fit do I remove the power steering pulley or does it go right it aren't all del sol have the same size engine bay
I was thinking on taking the tranny out too and drop it in with the engine to see if it fits that way. Plz help

No need to remove the tranny, you just need to drop it in at an angle to get the tranny to clear the passenger side mount. After the tranny clears the mount straighten/level the engine and it should pretty much line up.

How much manpower do you have? I had three people positioning the engine while I raised and lowered the engine with the hoist. Even with three guys, it still took a few minutes to get everything to line up.

I just dropped a d16z6 into a dx coupe and also noticed the extra pully for p/s but its maybe an inch wide and there is PLENTY of room in that engine bay for a d series engine. My bay looks half empty with the z6.

Good luck!
