one more of the cluster flop of a dash. what a pain, the worst was the 10mm bolt on the passenger side and getting the cluster out. i have the new harness in but i have some plugs left that i shouldnt and this and that. little worried but will tackle it again tomarrow with a clear head

Where did you get a new wiring harness?  And how the F did you get it for 1100?

[Skinny_Pedal [OP]]

well not a new harness, it was used but new to me. of course this one for some weird ass reason just didnt work right. so i already tracked another one down and is being shipped here i hope bye tomarrow or saturday. then we'll see if we can get everything hoked up correctly .

thanks brotha man. ive only got to drive it once and it was a straight header without an o2 sensor, and wouldnt idle. it sucked. can't wait to romp on it

I'm almost ready to buy my own... what parts did you have to use off your old motor?

[To The Floor]

it had a head, valve cover, oil pan.  i think the intake was the only thing he had to use, but either him or prismo will post up and correct me, cuz im probly wrong.

[Skinny_Pedal [OP]]

you are mostly correct. the intake is the big piece. then all your accessories, motor mounts, few small misc pieces. for the price of the motor its ricaculous....but one hell of an upgrade

[eddybaboy]

what about the waterpump, belt, alternator, and did you get a free t-shirt?
