I'm putting in my new engine soon. 86 NA
I'm going to be running Premix.

Have I forgotten anything:
Flushed Oil Cooler
New AN oil Cooler Lines
Cored Radiator
All new Coolant Hose
Cleaned Fuel Injectors
New Fuel Filter and Fuel lines
New Vacuum Hoses
New 89 Pulsation Damper
New Water Pump
Evans Coolant
blocked-offed EGR

Any other suggestions??

 

crap you did more than I did.. um.. change the oil on the new engine, add coolant, new spark plugs, buy a haltech.. um.. no that's about it

 

anyone?

 

Looks good, your list is more complete than the one I had made.

Maybe replace the clutch if it needs to be done, even if it doesn't, its a good time to do it.

 

New clutch goes in with the new tranny. I may hold off 4 2 more weeks until it gets here. I still have to paint the engine compartment

 

new motor/trans mounts maybe?
check the belts?

be careful with the new fuel lines - i didn't know there were different types of fuel lines and i put in ones that weren't rated for the pressure of a fi system (the guy gave me carb lines). i sprung a leak while driving around and had to get my car towed and then had the lines switched out (i was far from home). $300 ignorant error :-(

other than that, you've nailed everything i did when i replaced my engine.

Dont forget to change the injector o-rings and insulators. Other then that...you should be on your way.

 

Thanks JMSEVEN, I had forgotten about those. I found the best price for the stock stuff at mazdaformance.com

 

Here is the new engine:

Where did you get your engine? How much did it cost you?

 

Pineapple racing. Stage II 2495 5 yr/60k warrenty

 

Was wondering....how long did it take to pull the old engine/transmission out of the car?

Hot_Dog

 

Is this a non-turbo?

Sounds like your replacing everything, should be quite the badass FC when your done. You building it for racing?

 

Just over 3 hours to pull the engine and tranny. Hardest part was disconnecting the ECU harness plus under/behind the dash. I learned a new trick on for that !
Drop the blower motor makes it a lot easier to get to those 2 plugs.

I'm building it to auto-x.
And I hate **** half-done
