I'm still keeping my fingers crossed! I guess I can't be totally sure until I get it out and drive it, especially for the gearbox. As far as cooling, I'm hoping the Carrera cooler in the fender will suffice. I'm not that concerned about the street, it will be more the track use that may stress things a bit. If not, I still have my Mocal cooler (which actually was 12AN, not 10AN as I thought) which I can put in the rear fender.

Funny little footnote to my engine swap story. I made the decision to purchase the 3.2 last fall while my wife was having back surgery. Literally, while she was under the knife, I was out in the waiting room exchanging e-mails with Rick at Weekend Rides. I just knew getting a 3.2 and LSD tranny would help her heal faster

She's going back in tomorrow for a follow-up surgery. I wonder what I could buy this time???
