what else is needed? for my 98 other than the uupper?? and also would it jus be easier to swap a whole engine into my car...what else mods would be needed for that?

 

if your gonna swap a whole engine you might as well drop a v8 in it.

 

you need quite a bit. the best way to do it would probably be to buy the kit ssm sells. its only 800.

Throttle body, upper intake, lower intake, heads, push rods (old ones may work, but new ones aren't a bad idea), new head bolts (old bolts should not be reused), full wiring harness, 99-04 spark plugs, 99-04 coil pack relocation, slight modification to the fuel system (can't remember what exactly though), 19lb hr fuel injectors (larger would be reccomended if you're going with a ported system or plan on an S/C in the future, you may also need to modify your MAF if you go over 24lb), upper/lower intake gasket, throttle body gasket, head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, all for a 99-04.

That's about all I can think of, a 99-04 ECU wouldn't hurt either.

 

now i know what my next major mod will be!

 

hmm so im prolly better off getting the whole damn engine...its 250 for a 01 v6 with 50,000 miles...not bad...i dont wanan swap a v8...else i woulda got one in the first place haha i want v6 braggin rights!
