How did you do the trans swap? Im looking at basically everything out of a 96 so im hoping not to have any unforeseen problems that you had to deal with. What's the best way to do the swap without a car lift or anything? Also what gears are you running? I know you have 33's and on stock ratios wouldn't that result in pretty bad MPG's?

I havnt had any problems with Mpg and I also did the swap at a shop on a lift so it was somewhat easier to do. Since i have a 97 I had to splice wires and swap sensors over. But all is good now and everything is up and running.

I bet. When are you going to either get a new case or replace the chain? It might be a good idea to install an SYE at the same time.
