This is not my car, I am asking for my neighbor, who asked me to help him with the swap if it was possible to do without turning it into a career.

Thanks for reading this,

This is the line that stuck with me throughout this thread. Been there, done that. Everytime I have gotten involved with someone elses Herculean task like this one, I ended up married to that project, and wishing I had never gotten involved in the first place.

It is nice to want to help someone out, but things like this have a habit of turning ugly on you real quick. Somehow the project turns into yours, and goes on and on and on.

Help him rebuild the caddy, it will be much easier and better in the end.

Thanks Don, My problem is that this is my line of work. I don't want to let the kid start anything he can't follow through with, without me winding up doing it myself. I have plenty of work already , and a job like that is only going to turn frustrating for the both of us. I can't donate a tremendous amount of time to it, and if we have to put a dry sump or modify oiling systems or crossmembers he can't afford to do it. Hopefully this thread will stand as a warning to others who would want to try it themselves. Is there smiley that has a head on a stick?


Thanks, Mikey
