    2.7i Checklist

    So i've been searching around and asking and have gotten most of the info i need, but im looking to complie a complete checklist of shit you need for the 2.7i

    Specifically mine, which will be the eta bottom end [on my '86]

    And sourcing parts from an 87i, still an early model


    So

    The Head
    Intake Manifold
    Fuel Rail and injectors
    Fuel Pressure Regulator
    Idle Control Valve
    ECU
    Spark Plug wires & trigger
    ECU harness
    Air Flow Meter
    Thermostat Housing
    crank position sensor w/bracket.
    Big round thing with all the notches in it that goes behind the main pulley.
    Throttle body.

    What am i missing? anything unnecessary?


    Thanks!

    You do need the ECU harness.
    You also need the crank position sensor w/bracket.
    You also need the big round thing with all the notches in it that goes behind the main pulley.
    Throttle body.

    Hope this helps.
