secondly...search before you post a question. there is a faq section at the beginning of this forum but since i'm being nice, i'll find it for you this time.

after reading the road race engineering one, i believe the magnus motorsports one is easier because you don't have to drill/tap anything. it's just a little modification to the motor mount and locating the cas. the road racing one has quite a bit of drilling and tapping.

Its actually a combination of the two methods. The magnus method as far as using the modified 2g motor mount, and RREs CAS swap info. In fact I think the magnus site tells you to check out RREs site for the diagram, or links to it. It did a few years ago anyway. At any rate, thats the prefered method. RREs method does have its advantages, but its enough work that very few poeple do it.

Nobody will call you or IM you because you can't stick around to read replies. Seems disrespectful that you PM me and I have to call you to help you. No thanks, stick around and learn something.

Well, if you are that busy, how do you have time for an engine swap?

You don't have to sit here and wait. You can check the bookmark faster than you can check your email. If you don't have time to contribute or at least not ask people to go out of their way to help you because you CANT SEARCH, you don't need to be helped.
