>>I don't understand why so many people say it's not going to work. <<<
Me neither! I think they're just pissed they didn't think of it first =)
<<<<The new knowledge I've aquired over the last couple of months of
research on this
project tells me if you play it right you can do this swap over a weekend
with not many problems at all.<<<
yep! I'm hearin' that from some people on the net! Just fabbin' up some
crossmembers and motor mounts... the hard part will be gettin' all the
sensors in. I've got most of them, but the rest I have to buy. The cool
thing about a premag is mechanical guages! And I don't have a tach, so
I'm probably gonna get an aftermarket one. The oil pressure might be
electronic, but I don't know. I'm sure it's just gonna take some wiring
to get that guage to work (electrical signal? shouldn't be hard). I don't
know about temperature... I don't even know how it's read... still
diggin' on that one too....
>>>> Another problem I can see is choosing
the correct radiator in the premag to get the proper cooling. Spit out
some
cash for a sweet one of the aluminum design, and you're set.<<<
yup! I was told that I should be able to use a radiator out of a 92+
Dakota V8. If not, I'll get a phat aluminum one made for me. Won't be too
hard, just time consuming and expensive....
As always, I'll keep you posted!
