I have been working on this car a lot over the past year and a half, along with having a well-known shop in Orlando, FL (RawBrokerage, Inc.) re-work and replace some of the fabrication work that is required in this swap. I had been experiencing cooling issues with the old cooling setup, so everything had been removed and re-done earlier this year and it has held up great to the intense Texas heat even sitting in traffic on the hottest of days.
I always get a lot of questions about the swap, but it is easier to explain in a video.
Since making the video, I will have one more part to add and that is not related to the RB swap and that is going from the NA to TT subframe/diff/etc.
The end goal of this car nowadays is to just "enjoy it for what it is" and jump in it with my wife and drive. Not a track car anymore, not a "I only race from a roll" car, etc... just a "Pure enjoyment" car.
My hat is off to the amazing fabrication work that RawBrokerage had done. They took their time to do it right and it shows. I wish I had their kind of fabrication skills.
...and some flyby action:
