This looks identical to the one I bought, I wonder if somone bought and re-sold one.

Posted

not sure how I missed this thread........but is this going in the cutty or the fiero??

Posted

Im 90% sure the Fiero, the noisy lifter I have in the Cutty should be repairable.

new? used? You also said you had a 96 harness and pcm?

Posted

Used. Not sure on miles, but they look good. You can have all of the lifters that I have if you just pay shipping. I'll get some pictures tonight, I just have to remember.

 

Yes, I have a 1996 3.4 harness (that I purchased but never took out of the box, came from whats his nuts in the Chicago area) and a 1997 LTZ (3800) PCM. From my understanding, a reflash of the PCM will do the trick, since they are the same P/N and all (got this info from the king of lugnuts himself haha). PM me an offer, and I'll probably take it, just to get it out of my garage. Be sure to include your postal code for shipping quote.

Just an update, got this home last weekend, Picked it up just outside of Harrisburg. Also, visited with Chris and Shaun in Zelienople which is always a pleasure.

 

Will take pics once I get it mounted on my super kick ass $40 Harbor Freight engine stand this weekend.

Glad to see you stopped by Saint Marys!! hahahaha. No, that's cool. Glad that you were able to get the motor. Hopefully the PA roads weren't too hard on your dad's truck...

Yeah I ended up taking I90 to I390 down to RT 15 in PA through Williamsport to Harrisburg. Then I76 from Harrisburg to Pittsburgh and I79 up to I90 then home.

 

The only real shitty roads were between the NY / PA border and Williamsport on RT15.

Yeah Kenton is top notch guy for sure.

 

Here's some pics unpacked out of the crate on the stand.

 

FYI: 88-93 Caliper bolts work perfect for mounting the engine to the stand.

 

Came with intake / exhaust gaskets, water pump, knock sensors, cam sensors, crank sensor, auto flywheel.....

 

Underneath is a manual flywheel, complete 96 top end, mini starter, and beside is a 96 LQ1 harness and ECM.

Ahh they look so good when they're fresh and clean like that. What is that round thing in the side of the oil pan?
