Dave: Because the task is so darn straight forward I'm prob not going to do much of a writeup or pics of it on my site. Besides, I'm feeling pretty lazy just now. Yes, I'm using ALL of the peripherals from my EJ20 on the new EJ22. A seriously driven person could likely do this job in a day with a bit of help when actually lowering the suby engine out of the van. I'm taking my time and will have about 5 evenings into the job by the time I'm done. Here's the rundown..... * Disconnect Battery * Disconnect plugs (sensors and 2 main gray plugs) on harness mating vanagon to suby engine * Unbolted the intake, raised if off of the engine and suspended it in place to save from having to disconnect the fuel, vacuum connections. did the same with the power steering pump so that i wouldn't have to disconnect it. * Disconnect/drain coolant pipes (left H&R coolant return pipe in place, only disconnected 1 1/2" hoses from thermo and coolant manifold. * Drain/remove oil pan * Supported the tranny with a jack. * Supported the engine with a floor jack. * Unbolted the rear heat shield. * Disconnected the torque converter bolts (I have an auto trans), the four bolts mating the tranny to the KEP adapter. * Loosen 4 bolts holding smallcar motor mount to engine * Remove 4 motor mount crossbar bolts * Carefully pull engine away from transmission * Carefully lower jack while balancing engine * Remove remaining sensors, coolant manifold, motor mount from old block * Install all of above on new block (depending on age of new block, consider replacement of seals, gaskets) * Re-install new block (reverse of removal) * Fill fluids and bleed * Connect Battery * Polish shiny bits (optional) * Drive Brent www.weidefamily.net/vanagon
