Engine Swap - 1st installment

[firemanharry]

Well.....the motor project that was supposed to start last month has finally gotten off the ground. After getting the drivetrain out we decided to do a 2" body mount relocation. Also looking for a YJ tub to solve my termite problems. Reworking the pics so that they are viewable at the Imagestation. Please Stand By

Hey Harry, What are going to do with the motor? If you aren't going to use it, I need to buy some parts from ya.

[firemanharry]

I'm in New Jersey so I guess the tub is out for me, thanks anyway. Sorry Raven but the motor was sold a few months ago while on a run. What parts are you looking for?

 

[Sully]

FireManHarry,that isnt your cj tub on that is it?

 

[firemanharry]

Yes, the green machine is mine but the tub is now sitting on 5 gallon buckets in the garage.

 

[Captaininsano]

I kicked the buckets out now your beat

 

[firemanharry]

SABOTAGE?????

Don't make me unleash another can of spray foam on YOUR Y...I mean CJ

 

[Captaininsano]

will my stock Tach work on my 350 conversion?

How much go jo will it take you on this job

 

[firemanharry]

should be able to do it with a few gallons as long as there's no pumice in it........pumice makes me itch.

Harry, basically, I need everything from the block forward. Pulleys, waterpump, alt, ps pump, and a carb (anything to just get it running). And most of te mounting brackets for the add ons.

 

[firemanharry]

Can't help you Raven......we're gonna keep all that stuff.......good spares.

And while I'm here........my 5 year old daughter dropped my digital camera so no more pics til I get a new one.

Here's a verbal description of what's happening now. Green Jeep is down to a frame and rears. We've raised the body mounts and are going to relocate the shocks, fabricate a HD steering box bracket, custom skid plate. Right now I'm stripping everything out of the tub to be transferred into the YJ tub when it arrives. To be continued.......
