swapping a swap. need some info!
After much deliberation (about 24 hours worth) I have decided to put my TII into a different car.
The car the engine currently resides in is an S5 GXL (1990.) I want to put it into my S4 GXL (1987, I think.)
Basically, all i need to know is will the engine bolt right in? I'll be swapping basically everything over to the S4 (including wiring, mounts, etc etc.)
You may be wondering why I want to do this, and here are my main reasons;
-The S5 has a salvage title and I don't really want to deal with it.
-The S4 is in better shape and I'm all about not doing body work.
-S5 windshield is cracked pretty badly, S4's is perfect.
-S4 has an LSD
Those are really the main reasons... I'm hoping to have this accomplished in the next few weeks as long as my connections don't get messed up.
Thanks guys!
