Transmission case was cracked so its garbage, engine sounded great though. Paid $800 flat for the car was hoping for the engine / tranny combo but Ill sell some parts off the car to make some lost cash back. But at least the wiring will be easier for Series II w/ 4T60 HD

Actually my mom wouldnt let me do it at home so I did it at my uncles house. His neighbors are used to it, next to the riviera is my cousins mustang with no motor or tranny =).

I had about 8 hours in total pulling everything out, and most the time was dicking around. In all actuality it took me about 2-3 good hours pulling everything out, disconnecting everything and dropping it. If you can see Im trying to get the harness out in tact so I had to cut the passenger side front light wiring though because I couldnt get it out. But once I get the wiring out I gotta unbondle it and just pull out the pcm wring. Also which I thought was weird is how the truck is under the back seat on the riviera.

Make sure to save that wiper motor, Looks like it'll work in your car.

I was blown before the engine got "blown" ...tehehe

But yea, I bet this will be much much nicer, the engine in the bonneville before it gave ran like crap, so a good running 240hp engine should be nice =)

I'll need to drive up to your place and jack your engine for my car!
