Im.going with the rennline unit for sure and as far as engine tin still on the fence but might do Patrick kit and be done with it.

QUOTE=wildcat077;14137022]What are you doing about the engine tin ?
I would also suggest using the Rennline stainless engine mount versus the 3.6 unit , the Rennline
one is thicker and has the gussets already welded in , that's the way i went with my 3.6 transplant as well as with some Wevo mounts !

I used Fabspeed headers for the 3.6 , what's really cool is they also work with a 3.2 as the flanges are made to work with both engines ...[/QUOTE]

Wow , if i remember right , Patrick was charging something like $1100.00 for the
engine tin at the time ?
It's fairly simple to do the tin yourself if you have basic fabrication skills.

You are correct...I was quoted $1200 last week for a ready to go powder coated engine tin by PMS for 3.6 conversion

I've only got a throttle cable and heat duct from Patrick, but they were definitely $$$.

Yeah this is why we are on the fence with buying it because $$$, they got the market though. Timmins doesnt give you new tin but he charges you for it around the same amount so same difference there.
Going through transmission leak, and want to change any and all hoses, lines and etc before engine goes in so slow progress.

if you can get the 3.6 dirt cheap and do the swap yourself its worth it..

Honestly I'd buy it if it was cheap and look for a 993 no motor and throw it in there.

I'd keep the 3.2 your current setup looks awesome
