im not tryin to argue but its not gonna take you two weeks to do this swap. well i guess it depends on your ability to do it. me and my dad are shooting for a weekend to get it all done with our doner and 4banger. were both very experienced and work together really fast. hes been with ford for over 30 years and im very confident that we can get it done in this amount of time. alright flame away.(playin)

Yeah, the only problem for me was that my 4banger was a manual, and my doner car was an automatic...so I had to do all of that as well.
i thaught a 5-speed all you have to do is take it off buy a bellhousing and put it back on.. is there more to that?

check out my cardomain link in my sig 92mustanglx it tells what im gonna do to my car. i bought my donor on ebay in wi for 930. im converting the 2.3 cuz there is a lot of rust on the wi car and because the blue car doesnt have hardly any. the blue car also holds some personal value to me.
