Re: Planning Engine Swap
Do I need an actual muffler or would a compact silencer work also?

Re: Planning Engine Swap
Depends on how load you want it. I have used "Supertrap" mufflers on BS builds in the past. They have removable "disc's" to fine tune sound and backpressure. You do want some backpressure on BS engines.

Re: Planning Engine Swap
Context Note:(Dipstick Tube) Used Before Code Date 98060100
Part #281370S Context Note:(Dipstick Tube) Used After Code Date 98053100 Part#693172 My engine had the large diameter dipstick tube that uses the 281370S grommet However, it wouldn't clear the exhaust manifold with the Tube bracket bolted down. With the new 693174 Dipstick tube, and different tube bracket location, and the 693172 grommet installed......everything clears fine now Lol however now I need the dipstick to match the tube Just ordered it!

Re: Planning Engine Swap
I figured out a way around having to buy those two brackets and waiting a week for them
Hopefully it works....... I used a section of aluminum angle and mounted it to two horizontal exposed threads, on the differential I then made a slot in the front of the aluminum bracket, so the F/R cable can slide in Then, I removed the stock L shaped bracket that connects to the differential and flipped it 180° I think it should work! |

Re: Planning Engine Swap
The exhaust manifold is installed and bolted down, along with new manifold gaskets and a thin coating of Ultra Copper
I'm going to focus now on choke cable and throttle cable line and connections |

Re: Planning Engine Swap
Here's the stock orientation of the F/R bracket, showing the small tab facing forward
I just removed it, flipped it 180°, and bolted it back on |
