MK1.5 Swap in 62 hours?

[ModifierMR]

Do you think its possible to take the 3SGTE and swap it into my MK1 MR2 within 62 hours? Most people who do this swap usually take a month or more to complete.... I need to have it done in a weekend.

Me and Ed (GrandLordKhorne) were going to tackle this project sometime in febuary. With all the wiring pre-wired, every part needed in front of us, and everything ready to go...do you guys think its possible to take the 4AGE out and the insert the 3SGTE then add new mounts, add new wiring harness, new hoses, cables, axles, etc... within 62 hours?

Now, ed (GrandLordKhorne) has done over 30 swaps in his lifetime, he is a very knowlagable mechanic and he will be helping me with most of the process. All we will have is some mechanic tool sets, a large overhead crane, and some jackstands.... He says its possible

A complete MK1.5 in 62 hours......

what do you guys think?

62 hours straight or combined time? Im sure you can do it if you have all the necessary parts and tools in front of you, even more so with an impact gun.

i believe it possible in less than 48 in total wrench time... not included breaks... or parts / tool runs

HAHAHA!!!! I wonder how old this thread is? Cuz if your the guy i'm thinking about...then you already finished the swap. Thats funny, just stumbled upon it on google. Well, congrats on the swap anyways. I know u finished it, I saw it on that site, I saw the videos, and i read about it.....but did you finish it within 62 hours???

Lol no, It took me about 9-10 months total to do the swap. I was grossly under-prepared for the task. I had alot of missing peices to the swap. So I ended up finding a garage a friend had and I used that for most of the year. It sucks that I didnt get to drive it in nice weather at all last year, but at least now it runs and drives great and its ready for this years summer.
