How bout that half ass motor swap

where's your lx9 swap. yea not in your car mine is in and is running great. so what i didnt do the 35oo upper. it was my swap and i didn't feel it was necessary to do it. i know what work was done and that's all that matters. i dont have any thing to prove to any one

[happyisthealero]

what is the last pic for? Oh and I didnt know the 3.5L could bolt up to the 3400?!?

[jawa]

the last one was a accedent.

[jawa]

what is the last pic for? Oh and I didnt know the 3.5L could bolt up to the 3400?!?

its not a bolt on TB. got mod it a little

[happyisthealero]

its not a bolt on TB. got mod it a little

esplain lucy? W/pics...

[xXManwhoreXx]

Is that your vaccum cap!

[jawa]

names jawa. just had to drill a couple of holes in the throttle body spacer thing that came off the lx5, then bolt that spacer to the intake then the throttle body bolts to thar
t

[happyisthealero]

run any better? and is that a spark plug boot?

[WhiteV6]

I didn't know there was an adapter on the stock LX5 to fit its own TB. We make adapters but may just call this next small batch the last if its already got something there.

[jawa]

well on the lx5 the intake is plastic. there is a metal spacer adaptor of sorts, you have to modify the spacer a bit by drilling holes so it can be bolted up to the la1 upper, it runs much better. better power all around and its smoother. ill get pics soon as i go to a yard

[jawa]

and yes its a plug boot. till i get a proper plug

[happyisthealero]

I wasn't poking fun at you either, about the plug boot just didn't understand why it was there. Doesn't coolant normally run through that passage way? Yes let us know man if I could save myself money by buying a used TB from a 3.5L DOHC I would... 3500 or the 3.5L DOHC Shortstar?

[jawa]

any 3.5 dohc TB will work. that plug is a vacume port.

[sleepyalero]

honestly jawa i like the fact you kept the 3.4 top end.

[jawa]

thanks. it kept the swap easier. IM going to grind the 3400 lettering down and paint on the letters to reflect the lx9 power plant

[sleepyalero]

that would be cool donchaa knooo ehh

[jawa]

tell u wut......

[happyisthealero]

is your 3400 ported at all to match the TB you installed?

[jawa]

of corse it is. IM not that much of a newb

[happyisthealero]

Eh.. not an insult of any kind. I was making sure I dont do the newb thing like not getting it ported first. Did you go through WOT-TECH or local?

[jawa]

well i have a dremal so i did it myself

[jhubbz]

I was kind of surprised how someone from Florida, now in Wisconsin, could sound so much like a yooper. I guess they're both up there, but dang. Also, LD9 4 lyfe

[jawa]

um i was born n raised in da u.p. and its lx9 for Lyfe eh
