I love the S logo on your tank. Wish my 23 had that instead. I wanna spread the gospel and dispel the myth that the stock saddle is uncomfortable. It's not. I'm, unfortunately right now, 260 pounds and I can sit in that thing all day long. It isn't awesome, but my Corbin isn't here yet. The seat is designed to put you in the proper position for sport riding. Put your back way back where it's supposed to be, hang your hands lightly on the controls, and your feet on the balls and against the rear set. If you're sitting upright like a squid with your butt on the narrow part, good luck riding 30 minutes.

I see you have that right cover off to see the timing marks. beats having to take the whole timing cover off. Did you have to do/remove anything else to be able to spin the crank? Does it help to take the serp belt off? Also, I’ve heard you can remove the engine mounts and jack the car up to not have to mess with the fuel rail. You think that’s easier or harder way to get that one stubborn cover off? Any info is appreciated, and thanks for making this video.

hey man, what happened to the Camaro? i want to know more about it since mine I think has a leaking/blown head gasket. was it reliable after the top swap or did it blow up is what I'm asking?
@Spenceboy94 Жыл бұрын
Hey, Camaro is long ago gone. I drove it on that swap for about a year without any issue other than a hotstart problem. I ended up trading for an 89 RX7 and it was driven away. To be totally honest, if I were to do that swap again, I would 100% get an aftermarket or piggy back ECU to ensure you had control of ignition timing and cylinder Temps.

@CuckBalls I did the swap because I wanted more power, and I was a kid on a budget. It was an interesting experiment and was different from all the guys doing LS swaps. I, however, would now go with the LS swap.

I wanna do the something similar to my camaro, however all this swaping parts between the different motors is getting confusing.

Also what pistons would I need to swap into the motor to make sure the compression ratio isn't too high.
