Ok so i decided on an engine.

P-Pump 6bt with 150k
Backed up with a 2wd 47rh (no computer needed, yes it has a PCM but 2 switches fix that)
Finished up with a divorced 205

So small issue. If you measure the space I have (Fire wall to core support) versus how the engine sits now (f700 core to back of motor) there's 15 inches

more on the engine side.

So a lot to figure out there. Shorting, eFan maybe, Cutting, combo of all of it.

The f700 rad is very close to the same size so i think I'm going to try it. Put the inter cooler in front and see if i cant gain a few inches there.

If anyone has any insight please let me know. I'm not afraid to cut cut cut. Also someone come buy the old axles and wheels/tires. I don't want to scarp them but don't need them ether.
