3.6 Install - It's Alive!

Real quick update, I post more tomorrow.

Great day, and great bunch of guys came over to help. We started at 10:30 and didn't have ignition until 6 PM. Unfortunately, most of the guys had to leave before we heard the angels sing. What a beautiful song it was!

From this...


To this!


I’m getting up at the crack of dawn to finish putting everything back together. I hope to be on the road by noon. The strange glow in the sky will from my big $hit eatin’ grin that should take the rest of the year to fade.

Why does Ingo have the smallest glass???? He needs a large German stein! Jeez everything looks clean and new. Beautiful work!

Glad to hear that its going well and under its own power! Looking at stuffing mine in on Sunday or Monday but in no hurry to lie it up. Still not sure about the wiring and do not want to blow a DME so will take it slow and sure.

I had heard that those chips will blow up your motor, but Ingo said that he offered a 10 min or 1/10 mile money back guaranty so I said what the hell. The No Bad Days chip will lead me to victory!

I keep running out to the garage to see if it’s really in there.

You guys did a hell of a job!!! I can not quit looking at the pics as it looks like a freakin dinner table, it is so damn clean.

Were there any major mods ( going from 3.0 to 3.6) in putting this engine in??

Major mods, no. Hundreds of little mods, YES!

The down and dirty…

Upgrade oil cooling
All new exhaust
Wiring for the DME
Engine cross mount modified
Fuel lines
Flywheel
Clutch
Throttle
And a hundred other little details

There is a conversion kit available, I did not use it. The cost is about the same if you use it or not. I was able to make many improvements over what I would have had if I had used the kit. I have tons of info that I need to organize and put up on a website and I plan to do that soon.

Thanks for being there till the end and the great pics Max.

Talking about kicking butt at stop lights; I got away with some pretty spirited driving back and forth today between SBA and Highland (less than 2 hours per way) only to almost being busted at the Carrillo offramp stoplight. Duh. I was punching it a little bit to catch the green light after the left turn (didn't even brake the rears loose, I swear) and a cop gets right behind me out of nowhere. Pulled up besides me at the next light and gave me the evil eye. I shrugged and said: "...sorry.." and he moved on. Man, that was close.

Good luck with the first drive!

Great job Ryan, Now it's time to go dirty that 3.6 up
Can't wait to see it at the next BBRIV.
Looks like you could operate off that engine!

Ingo,

The way you and MikeZ drive around SB, its only a matter of time. Carry a lot of cash and hopefully a "get out of jail free card" and hope the fine is not too high. Glad you did not get nicked this time out!

Ryan,

Cannot wait to hear how you like the dual oil coolers in each front fender. So far I have not changed mine from the stock unit in my 85. Was going to put a second one up front on the nose but a second one in the left hand fender looks interesting as well.

That is the Applied Business Concepts (Appbiz) sound pad. It's lighter than stock and supposedly works better. Jack has one in BBII and he seems to like it.

Joe, I drove around w/ the two oil coolers for about two months w/ the 3.0. I’m anxious to see how they do w/ the 3.6.

Ingo, you nut! I'm glad you got home ok. Thanks for everything!
