Yes updates Please.  :)

Is there room to retain the 2.0l viscous fan?  3.5" sounds a little close.

OK, after about a month I have come to the conclusion that there is no way I will be able to pull the pic's off of the corrupted hard drive, which is what has been delaying the finish of the write-up. I apologize for this delay and assure everyone that the write-up will be finished as soon as possible.......just without as many detailed pic's.

Hello,

I am considering the same swap to a 2.0 litre engine, however, I have a 97 Siddekick Sport with a 1.8 litre engine. From what I understand the swap is more straightforward in the sence that the engives are very similar. Can anyone confirm this or have any experience with this?

Thanks!

As far as I know the 2.0 is just a bored out 1.8.

Acutally the bore is the same but the stoke is different.
