Swapping 05 motor into 06 - Intake manifold
Hi all,
My 06 blew up and I found an 05 to swap in. After some research I found I need to swap these parts:
Cheers!
My 06 blew up and I found an 05 to swap in. After some research I found I need to swap these parts:
- Oil Pan
- Valve Cover
- Intake Manifold + TB
- Swap all sensors
- 06 Intake Trigger Wheel
- 06 Exhaust Trigger Wheel
- 06 Timing chain cover + Crank position sensor
- 06 Trigger crank wheel
Cheers!

You don't need to change the intake cam trigger wheel, 06+ only got one sensor and its on the exhaust side.
Timing chain cover is also the same, just need to change crank sensor and trigger wheel.

Got it. I kept the 05 case cover. But my issue now is the exhaust ports.
I like the idea of tapping the ports with a 1/4 20 screw but I dont want to remove the head to do that. Yes I know I don't have to remove it but I don't want metal bits getting into the engine. Are there other ways to do this? Tap the intake manifold port where the injection device would have sat on the 05?
