Bf Motor Put In Ba?

[icer]

Hi.

I was just informed a BF MK2 xr6t will fit into the BAs. Are these straight pick up and drop in? Or is there much more then that? Has anyone ever done this? if the motor is from a manual and the engine is from an auto what needs to be concidered? whats the turn around time from old engine out to new engine in ruffly and how much would a job like this cost roughly? Cheers

don't know about your turn around time

but yes bf same block as ba , the fg block has even been fitted to the ba just takes a few mount mods to fit it

mate if they slip straight in u could do it your self in a day...... me and a old work make swapped a block in a vn in 2 afternoons after work only working 2hrs each.

but taking to a shop is different they might have other cars to do n just do yours in between

seen another member selling one on here for 5500$. whats the differenc efrom short block/long block?

ill be looking for an engine to swap over for th enew car I just bought from ch0pper. if I can get one for a good price ill concider it. 5500 is out of my price range though. And are you located in melb? Does it matter what the engine comes out of? auto or man? As my car is an Auto.\

also stupid Q, is a short block the whole engine? Like the othe rmember is listing? or is it just the block alone...

[qik1]

Its a short block. Meaning block, crank, rods, pistons assembled obviously. It doesnt have a head or sump.

[icer]

yeah, well ill be lookin for whole replacement sorry.

do you require an engineer certificate to do this swap over? Also do you need to inform vic roads?
