20v swap
as many of u kno i had to stop the 4afte project b/c my family sold the house and i didnt have the time anymore  . however God graced me with the opportunity to get the silvertop last week and drop the car off at a local mechanics shop to do the swap for me. anyway long story short the motor is now in the car and i got some money and bought some goodies for it. i just ordered polyurethane motor mounts from speed source, should arrive on wed and gonna replace the distributor cap and spark plug wires and get those from dr tweak this week. my comp broke so if i can figure out how to upload pics from my phone i will until then i will keep everyone posted

ok ignore the above post , youll need to swap to a MAP based ecu and harness , and get rid of the AFM the silver top uses.

I plan to put the filters on mine...just as a precautionary measure. But yea, stacks is the way to go. I'm also in the market for some.

well hey everybody. ive run into a problem with the swap. it appears that the mounts and brackets that are on the transmission dont fit/line up properly with those that were on the 4afe tranny. im kind of stumped b/c supposedly everythings supposed to be interchangeable. please help, i need this car on the road and this has put a stop to everything
