Oh yeah, that's the plan, this has the electronic speedo, that's why the tail shaft housing needs changed, and add a speedo gear.I'd pull that thing apart and check how the gears, dog teeth, and blocker rings look. It looks well weathered.
The 4 cylinder transmission I've had for many years has lived behind some real power with no modifications. The T5 z spec on my shelf had issues with second gear years ago. Still haven't put it behind anything else. Now, I have a tko600 and will never look back.
Still a good catch at the JY. I would've bought it too. I thought you only needed to change the input and bearing retainer. Its been almost 20yrs since I converted one for a fox.
I think I payed $40 for mine.I don't blame you for making your own. $70 for that?!
Oh, it's been done, I was going to do a write up with a bunch of pictures, but realized it would take me 2-3 hours of typing and talked myself out of it. It runs real strong, I never made it to the track last year, I've gotten back into motorcycles and the Fox body takes a back burner sometimes.GravyDog - What a transformation! Any progress on the engine swap?
Looks great!Oh, it's been done, I was going to do a write up with a bunch of pictures, but realized it would take me 2-3 hours of typing and talked myself out of it. It runs real strong, I never made it to the track last year, I've gotten back into motorcycles and the Fox body takes a back burner sometimes.
I've made some other changes too, 3.73 gears, got some new used wheels, but don't really like the skinnys up front, I have been gathering parts for a 5 lug swap, but haven't found any wheels I like yet, also bought a Pypes catback system I haven't installed yet. Here's a couple of pics of how the car sits right now, hope to get to the track sometime this year, but I have a lot going on.
Yeah, we don't deserve to read about the progress and peek at a few pics of what it took to transform a turd into a shiny cruiser.Oh, it's been done, I was going to do a write up with a bunch of pictures, but realized it would take me 2-3 hours of typing and talked myself out of it.
