    yeah we didnt get the crossflow motor but in terms of doing a swap it should be easy since u have the engine harness. its just a matter of tracing the old wires from the engine bay and unplugging them at the fusebox, then plugging in the new one. u will need to take most of the dash off and its best to change the harness around when uve got no motor.

    the only problem i can forsee is if u have a lhd harness and ur car is rhd.
