Title: 2006 engine swap into 2008 - any issues?
Post by: N618ft on January 22, 2013, 05:03:40 PM
Just seeing if I'd have any issues doing a clean engine swap between them... I know there's some slight part number changes here and there but it's practically the same engine that'll bolt in and connect to the 2008 carbs the same way.

I believe "pimpness" is a rough equivalent to "awesome"

My thoughts as well. Maybe we should ask N618ft for clarification?  :thumb:
