Anyone still out there?
So long story short, I bought an xr2 about 10 years to swap a festiva. I ended up not doing that and kept the car. The xr2 had a salvage title, so it ended up sitting. Anyways it got to a point that I had to get rid of the car, so I saved the powertrain and the harness, etc.
Then a buddy of mine bought a mx6 for the kl engine. and we ended up doing some trading for the chassis. so now I have a mx6 that I am going to put the b6t in. This seems kinda similar to the kl swap thread that I saw on here.
I was so disappointed to get rid of the xr2, but for reasons outside of my control it had to go... If you guys are interested in seeing progress, I will post updates.
For some background on me, Ive worked for a Chevrolet dealership as an ASE master tech for the past 5 years. For the past 15 years I have been studying b-series/g-series and various chassis platforms as they fascinate me. It will be cool to finally have a b6t power me down the road! Thanks guys!
I will post some pictures of pulling the drivetrain and such and of updates to come!
