Hi all, just hoping to gather a few opinions. As mentioned above, i’ve chosen to use an AGU engine for my 80 swap. There’s two main reasons for this, the AGU is my preferred 1.&t lump and I also know the car so know it’s a goodun.
I know the 06a blocks have different mounts etc and some ancillaries will need looking at e.g. exhaust, intake routing but I’m happy to do some fabrication work to get the car to the spec I would like it.
That said, has anyone got any advice or comments on this approach? Starter motor is one thing I’m looking at how to sort, also the front mount.
Many ideas or if anyone knows any tried and tested solutions would be most appreciated.
Im doing away with A/C so have the room both sides to fabricate some nice OEM looking mounts.
Also so planning to use most of the AGU components and modify where required.
So, any advice is most welcome.
Thanks all.
