the swap aint hard just dont **** up the bearing or get it dirty.
have to bleed the brakes but pretty much you reverse the way you take your stocks off. ya the tc rims at crate engine or was it gmpartsdirect was 170 a pop , i think. i might go with wilwood idk but thats the next big upgrade after my tune. suspension and brakes
