I had 24 of my friends in the fridge, and used at least 15 of them too.
Took the old motor out because it was blown. To what extent I am not sure yet untill i have time to tear it down. It took about 5 hours to put it back in and another 5 hours to swap every thing over from the old motor to the new motor. i had to change motor mounts, wire harness, injectors, turbo, a few sensors, tranny support braces, throttle linkage, flex plate. You see, the new motor was a 87 5 speed JDM, and my old motor was a 89 auto. So lots of things to switch around. I have about 15 total hours in swap.
