Re: New rig
I am calling it a successful engine swap have been driving it to work all week and no problems oil pressure is good and the temps wont even get higher then 180.. I need to check the thermostat and see what temp it is and if there is on in there.

Re: New rig
180* is fine. its cold out. if its running over 210* in the summer is when to worry. both of my rigs run under 190* in the winter without the fan on. in the summer they both run at like 210* with the fan on going up the hill to the trails. if you were running hot now id be worried.

Re: New rig
Buy, rent or borrow an IR temp gun. confirm the correct temp before you go on trying to figure out what the stock gauge is telling you.

Re: New rig
Finished the disc brake swap I found out you have to drill the backing plate holes out a little to get the studs to line up. This wasn't in the write up I used but found it in a different one.
Before
After
I stripped the hell out of the cross pin retaining bolt and had to weld another bolt onto to get it removed
This guy saved the day
Also had a rubbing noise found out on the test drive that the backing plate was rubbing my rotor so i had to hammer it back away from the rotor
I wish i saw this on the write up i followed i found it searching after i finsihed the swap
I wasn't sure how I could hook up my e-brake again but looks pretty simple to add with small u bolts...
