Nice man. From the pics it looks like a clean car. Do you happen to have some bigger pics?
Where did you get the cradle for it and tranny mounts? Or is it a custom job?

I did do it myself. I picked the 305 because I had one sitting around. My next swap would have been a Lt1 in a 3rd gen but I had a motorcycle accident and have lost the ability to stand/ work for long periods of time so this is pretty much out of the question. I bought the tranny mounts and accessory mounts from www.grannysspeedshop.com and the engine mounts I made.
If you're trying to be polite and ask for help just do it! I would be more than happy to coome down and lend a hand however I could I take beer and nudie pics for payment lol I can take more pics at home if anyone has any requests. Or I can also attend the next meet on thursday of anyone would like to see the car launch...... That is, as long as I get my Griffin radiator in on time. Its a pain in the ass only being able to lay on your back for 5 minutes at a time.

Oh no, no swap for this car. If I had a base model without the sunroof and all that then yeah.
Grannyspeedshop sounds like a decent place. Someone that I know swapped an LS2 into a 3rd gen and he got some parts from them. Edit: I would definetly love to check out the car when I get back.

Damn, you got 345 from a late 80's 305? Ditch the centerbolt heads, and get some real flowing heads.

Wow.
Have you by chance heard of the magazine Grassroots Motorsports? Those guys are all about swaps like this. You should check the forums out...www.grassrootsmotorsports.com.

I need to learn to weld so I can do cool stuff like this. I wanna put a SAAB 2.3 turbo in the back of a 1st gen MR2.

Cool project and clean install, good job. May i suggest that some wire looms would clean the engine bay up a little better?
