Hey, sorry to dredge up an old thread, but I just found this video accidentally. Warwickben got it, the pipe the guy had was to keep the car from rolling away, since apparently (according to the driver) it doesn't have a "last break" by which i can only assume he means a parking break.

That was a sweet vid btw...

So in other words the hardest part of the engine swap was the engine swap.

12a and all he needed was to set motor mounts, it worked out good, he did this

about 10 years ago when he was 18 imagine now ,with all the technologies and

info on internet it can be done easier. you just got to want to do it,
