DeeAOne's BF KLDE Swap.

[BG ALL DAY]

i can imagine this car pulling in third gear. Im definately thinking about getting a bf hatch if i find one for next to nothing and doing this. Great writeup

[DeeAOne]

this was done last night but i didnt get a chance to post until now.

and let me say now, IM NOT A WELDER. my buddy was sick so i went ahead and gave it a shot myself. lol





the finished product.



and a preview of whats to come for exhaust...i see pissing people off in my future.

Good progress Dee...weld not too bad for someone who's not used to it Sorry to hear about the coolant in the face....youch. Just put a couple of weld tacks on the pipe so the hose and clip cant pull over them.

[DeeAOne]

thanks for the tip!

[Turpro]

i think its mad because it will have to deal with more torque. lol

Nope. Its the opposite. Your car got over excited and blew its load thinking about all that tq

getting very close..im hoping the bracket will be here anyday now. and after letting the car get to running temp i only spotted two leaks. front valve cover leaking oil and the thermostat housing was dripping coolant.

today i bought two brand new BG tie rod ends to put on my rack..installing those tonight. pictures as always.
