Question: Motor Swap (and others)

[Mux213]

Hey jdmracer,

I would say, start with a search

There are two guys on the forum currently busy with a swap from SR5 to something EFI'ed, one is currently going silvertop, one GZE if I remember correctly allthough the projects are progressing a bit slow. Lookup their project and technical threads and you'll find alot of information already as they've asked the same question you are now. The steps required to do the swap has been discussed extensively but we're still waiting for someone to actually do this swap and document the swap with pictures. evfan42 atleast is well on his way but still waiting on some much needed parts. I'm really hoping he gets them soon, it will be alot of fun tracking his progress. So far he's been keeping us nicely up to date on how he's gotten his SR5 back in running condition and his prep work with his silvertop.

Whether to get a silvertop or blacktop really is personal taste, blacktop is slightly more powerful and rumoured to be slightly more reliable. Which one is cheaper really depends on where you live I guess.

No idea about what would sound better exhaust wise, I'm sure everyone has a different opinnion about that

Anyways, here is a start:
