How do you plan on doing the swap? Which transmission, which ECU.. etc.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.

So you're using a wideblock? 2.0 or 2.4?

yeah, its a wideblock. 2.0. i wanted to do a 2.3 (use the 2.4 crank in the wideblock) but id have to buy pistons (for the piston pin relocation). i wanted to do a oe bottom end first but i cant, so im gonna just go 2.0 oe bottom end.
