ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      ,you beat me to it.

      x2 i did mine in my backyard

      Hey wvcb7 ,do some research on the swap and get you a handyman(someone who's good with mechanical work) and do it yourself guaranteed to save you money

        It's really quite easy. I had a shop do mine, paid WAY too much... and I'm still finding stupid stuff that they did wrong!

          i know a Guy that paid a shop 8 stacks ($8,000) to do his swap and it's still not running right.( Danm Shame )

          it's all about common sense and the will to succeed and a lot of research and some more research

            WHAT!!! Holy crap! I paid $1750, and I got royally hosed!

            Any more than $1000 for a shop to do it is unreasonable. Paying a shop to do it is fairly silly... honestly, it's a VERY simple swap!

                  True... but it's something he can do himself... so many people are convinced you have to be a master mechanic to do a swap... and guys like me (4 years ago) believe it... and pay way too much money for them to do a hack job.

                  H22. Tap one hole in the transmission. Run 4 wires for VTEC (motor WILL run without), get the exhaust modified (stock piping won't line up... cheap job at a muffler shop). For power steering and AC, you'll need some custom work... my shop, who sucked $1750 out of my pocket, never even hooked up my AC. Honestly, it's like Legos.

                    That's what I did when I did my swap.

                    Did it in my driveway too. Wasn't too hard. (it was my 1st swap too)

                    Still miss the CB though......maybe one day.

                      my brother and I could help you do it in a weekend im sure, and if i couldnt help, im sure he could. He lives about an hour south of Lexington, KY. As far as a shop doing it, in Lex there is racing technology co, they did my tune, i know them, and theyre good guys, but youll pay for quality work.
                      and as stated, doing some research and doing it yourself is always an option as well.
