Default The Swap Begins...

Engine sits in nicely...just have to square everything up and fab the moter mounts...tranny mount lines up...unbeleivable!!!...just have to widen the holes in the crossmember....

The tranny in the pic is what is actually going to go in (after it is cleaned of course). The block is just there to help line up the engine mounts...Once it is set up i will pull it and put the real complete engine in it place

I was gonna guess that because of how the water pump bolts on but I didn't want to look like an idiot. I'm not good at recognizing bare blocks buy different OEM's
