soooooooooooooooooooooooooo.....

there has been some time go by since the last time i posted and thats because we came to a problem when we were hooking up the wiring harness, so all the plugs are fitting correctly and then we get to the cam sensor type and the plug doesnt fit, so we pull the sensor and it a completly different type of sensor from a 04 block to a 05 block, it changed to a mre (so?) type sensor that detects time immediately when the engine cranks over and not at 200rpm plus like the old type sensor so its a more efficient type but what that means is that this engine wont work!! in order to make it work we would have to disable the whole timing system swap cams and who knows what else so we decide to have the company we bought the engine from locate us a new one....

and some weeks go by....

and some more weeks go by....

until this week when we finally have a engine!! well its on its way down from oregon, its a 04 engine, with 15,000 miles, great compression and all diagnosis checks come out great, the only bad side is that its a few hundred more

so it should be here this following weekend and this next wednesday we are gonna get prepped by getting the old engine ready to send back, i.e take off the freshly installed water pump and a few other things-

cant wait to be done with this whole thing!!
