Title: Info needed for swaps
Post by: sheepdog on November 02, 2007, 11:19:46 PM

I am trying to track down some info for swaps for an article I am putting together. Any help would be appreciated. I am searching but I am hoping someone has some of it already.


I could use these for the m42, S14, and m52
Length from rear of crank to water pump pulley (overall engine length)
Crank center to pan bottom
Bottom of pan to top of intake
Width from valve/cam cover to the throttle body.
