Topswap it and drop in the HD tranny. smile You could even pull the 3.29 gears from your tranny for use in the replacement smile

Re: gtp motor - 09/25/08 10:34 PM

Karl i would say things to you that would get me banned from this forum, because of that i wont for the curtousy of others, but man thats not something you do, you dont tell someone they can have something like that and get their hopes up and then just drop the ball on them because you want it. just do a top swap, give andrew that motor and trans.

What happen to supercharger kit that you are working on? It was not work out?
Posted by: '01 GT

Re: gtp motor - 09/25/08 11:36 PM

he has it. He wanted the motor to be able to put the SS kit on so that the motor and tranny would be pretty much done.
Posted by: 4drgt

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 07:24 AM

yep that is correct, and then i was going to use parts from the top swap to put on the ss kit

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 08:48 AM

Andrew, I'll buy the trans from you and sell you the HD from mine, since my 4th gear is gone and I need a new tranny. wink

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 01:08 PM

well what are you doing? the whole motor or top-swapping? you don't need the DIC for anything.

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 04:45 PM

i plan on keeping original motor and jsut top swapping it..well for the dic doesnt it show boost levels.....?? or is it jsut a fun meter lol ....and when the tranny goes ill put the HD in.....if i top swap i dont plan on going wild...maybe a few mods when i have the motor apart but no like cam and stuff

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 06:40 PM

search top swap. there are lots of threads on it. the FAQ's has a list of everything you need.

The DIC just shows boost level on a stock 3.8 pulley and it just shows it in bars as a percentage, not actual PSI. once you drop pulley sizes the DIC gauge becomes more useless than it is stock as it doesn't show it correctly.

just get a boost gauge and put that in and forget about the DIC.

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 07:28 PM

The boost guage on the DIC is a joke. I've had it for five years now and I've yet to look at it since day one.

so youre going to do this to someone who has been a member here for a while, and then ask all of us for help. :rolleyes:

And you act like we pick on you because of your age. Maybe its just your maturity level

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 07:49 PM

Don't worry about them. I'm sure they will get over soon. It is your call.

Everyone don't like me because I have 3100 engine. :rolleyes:

I drove GTP yesterday. It was okay. I feel like it is same as SE model when I drive easy.

Man, you guys are making me go on rant after rant today!

If you really think that we dont like you because you have a smaller motor, then youre just ignorant! People are beginning not to like you because you keep bringing it up, and putting out 3800's down to make yourself feel better. Thats like driving through a trailer park and yelling, "Wal-Mart sucks!" We were very fond of RooK when he has his 3.1L motor. But you have to bring up your 3.1L into every thread that you possibly can. It's very annoying, and everyone is tired of it.

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 08:08 PM

Calm down man. Some of them might like me or not.

Some of them don't like me and don't think I'm not belong this message board because I have slow engine but I don't really don't care. It doesn't bother me. Our car have same body but we have like 3 different motors. Everyone love GT/GTP but I love my SE. Accept that 3100 hater... :rolleyes:

Re: gtp motor - 09/26/08 09:05 PM

no you need GROW UP!

4drgt says happen and he is over with that I'm pretty much sure. All of you moron keep attacking Karl for no reason. I'm just telling him don't worry about them and everyone hate my engine blah blah and this shit gone crazy.

It is Karl's choice. He buy it and want keep it then that's life. 4drgt might be upset because he promise him but broken it. I'm sure he is over it yesterday but all of you moron still attacking him. You are one should grow up.
