Ok, I am getting dangerously close to ordering my 20V. I have decided I am going with the BT and I want to just buy a full swap with a transmission and everything, yada yada yada. There is just one bit of information I cant seem to find, what axles are going to fit? Do I have to use my stock axles? I have no idea. I am pretty sure that the c52 that comes with the BT should be the same as the one I have on my 16V right? Have I not read up on this enough yet?
I'm getting more and more scared of this project and the whole car as it gets closer to the time because this is the second car I have actually had the funds to swap in a better engine into and I wanna do it right. I got screwed out of over $10k on my last project car. I don't wanna be the jerk with the hacked in 20V that falls out the first time I launch it above 6K at the track. Some body, quick. Slap me and calm me down.
Also best sources for the engine? Ebay looks just fine, but horror stories are scaring me away from buying one there. I live in a city that seems to hate cars and their owners so we don't seem to have any local suppliers that I can find. Am I not looking in the right places? WTF?!? I don't wanna get screwed on doing an engine swap again!
Somebody, please help a budgeted, scared sh!tless swap n00b.
