Well.. i guess everything happens for a reason. Left a deposit today with Jhot for another motorset that is comming in with the next shipment. this one has less miles and is a 5 speed motorset. After thinking about it I feel it is worth the extra money to get a better trans. Im sure the w58 wouldnt last long. So the swap is put back another month but its better in the long run

Mine came in this morning. Engine looks perfect! Only 38000km too 
(only 24,000 miles for those who dont want to convert).
I extended about 6 wires on it... man thats time consuming. Hopefully it will all be worth it.

I got 18 GA wire, but it seems there are a few wires in there that are thicker. 
Also, I've already singled out the knock wires so I wont cut them, but I am still not sure how to extend them with the USB wires. Do I just pull the wires completely out and run new ones, or do I splice into the current wires... (yes, I've searched like I have OCD 
)
