here's my thread from another forum without alot of feed back.
looking for two cents.
is alternative the best place for a tune near warren mi?
::::::::::::::::::::::::::
me get to the
i'm the guy who bought the trilogy off ebay (thanks to the pimp who wrecked it after 5 mos of owning it, found the temporary title, and mug shot)
i plan on doing the install myself to save a few bucks. plus nothing like sweat equity.
it came out of an 04 and is going into an 03.
1. it came with ecm and harness, do or should i switch these? it will make it to alternative after the install.
2. any advice on things i should do before installing other than a thorough cleaning. plan on checking oil for contaminents and looking at the cylinder walls with a borescope. don't really want to pop oil pan but could.
3. pulling s/c manual off the internet any advice not in the book?
4. both cars had a stock rear end. since it's more of a cruiser i was thinking leave it that way, unless convinced otherwise. it doesn't look like the motor has been torn down so i believe all the internals to be stock.
I know your all probably going to say just stroke it now, but funds aren't there. (remember i already stole the kids piggy banks to get this sucker)
sarcasm is appreciated!
just glad to be part of the madness
