I'm having AP1 4.44's rear-end built atm if I don't like it maybe up for sale later this year
Wideband install is tomorrow, I won some Goodridge high performance brake lines today from LHT Performance

I'm following in your footsteps, just have to try and secure an F22c to put in my car and not having much luck.

Is it really bad to go with an ebay motor?

The gearing is great when you match the F22 and the AP1 tranny I hear. Very nice numbers as well
Thanks man
Ive also heard good things about a F20 with AP2 gearing, but I havent seen anything in person
Indeed ap2 Trans match to ap1 motor offers great gearing. I love my setup cant wait to add my 4.56 gears to.the mix next.

I wouldn't only because I feel that's something you must see and run some tests to check if its even in working order, but if its a reputable seller then go for it if you want

That's beautiful bro!

The problem I'm having is I keep getting approached on s2ki by guests and people who have "buddies" with motors to sell. Can't imagine that being much better than the chances taken on ebay.

Any idea when you're going to have a standalone up and running? Interested in getting a vafc and wonder how they compare back-to-back

If you need a motor, PM the member davgoat. He used to be a sponsor and is a great guy.

That is who I bought my motor from. He is a great seller and the motor I received was in great shape and his prices are very reasonable.

Still running strong many miles later.

I've also bought several more OEM parts from him since then and he has yet to disappoint. I highly recommend him.

Got the o2 bung welded on today, special thanks to LHT Performance, wired and installed but ran into a head scratcher. The wideband is reading --- and not my air fuel. I'm using a brand new Bosch sensor and checked the connection site 3 times but still no dice.
