So we got the motor in today. Then back out when we found out that the motor mount arms had to be switched from my old motor. Now it's back in! We have questions...
The starter cable is different. My car did not have a starter switch on the fender well. The cable from the turbo motor starter has 2 extra wires. We can't use the one from my former motor because it runs too close to the exhaust pipe.
The kick down rod hits on a rod or tube by the firewall and won't go back any further. Why? I have a pic of this, working on the upload.
OH the bracket for the bottom of the engine shock on the body cross member touches the oil pan. Cut it off?
I'm uploading pics from today.
