Alright Everyone This is a long awaited update on this project, haven't given up or stopped just Wisconsin winters force me to stop but I did get the car up and running last fall.

As of right now, the entire 99 drive train except for rear end (kept the 3.92, supposed to be a little faster than with the 3.26 diff) is in the 92 car, including the entire wiring harness, body, engine, interior etc.
A couple tips for anyone considering this swap,

• Don't, unless your getting the parts for this extremely cheap and or this is way of getting around your local emissions like me, this really isn't worth the effort. UNLESS YOU HAVE A LIFT AND AN INDOOR AREA TO WORK, if you do have those things fire away.
• Gas Tanks, they're actually different from 92-2000, same capacity but the newer tanks have a return-less system, if you were to use an older tank you would have an extra hole, probably not hard to solve but take this into consideration none the less.
• All I can think of at the moment for tips...

Back To the swap, Sorry Pictures are really out of Order..
