How did you mount that front bumper?

aluminum angle, a piece all the way across the front under the grill for the top part to sit on. then a piece along the bottom of the radiator support. and bumper ties on the sides attached to the fenders, front part of the fenders have to be trimmed where the bumper attaches.

motor is pretty much ready to go in!


so that means that the m20b27 must come out!





btw if anyone is interested in the m20 motor and getrag 5spd tranny let me know! its the 2.7 eta, new timing belt, oil pan, water pump, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, radiator hoses, radiator, etc. runs good, perfect for someone looking to build a 2.7i. LOCAL pick up only. If you help me pull it, I'll give you a deal.

You know its R3V policy that if you do a V8 swap a mandatory burnout video is required to be posted right?

I think I understand, could you take a pic of the mounts before the next time you put the bumper back on? I think I want to do something similar
