I watched the "Dropping the motor in" video and I now have to watch the rest. good stuff!

Nice vids.

Makes we want to do a swap... for some crazy reason

.

Know anything about the new 3.6R? I wonder how that would swap into older cars. Probably too big for GC/GFs though.

It would drop right in without any mods and fit better than the eg33, if my limited research on the ez series motors is correct.

Never assume anything

Huh. Does the funky crank really keep size down that much? Nice.

The EZ30 and 3.6 drop in just fine. They use timing chains which help keep the size down. The problem is controlling them. Engine management is fussy.

Engine management is only fussy because for some reason people don't consider standalone engine management as an option.

And by standalone, you mean two stock ECUs? Lol. I had never thought of that until seeing your vids.

No, I mean any of the dozens of options of standalone tunable ECUs. The cheapest being Megasquirt.

When I say standalone in my videos, I mean installing my ECU as a separate entity that does nothing but control the engine. Stock ECUs by definition are not standalone ECUs.
