So I realize ther is an ignition difference between the two motors. the older having the ignition module and coils in the center section of the VC and the 07-08 having the COP design from the LE5. Other than that are the motors interchangeable? or is there a difference with EGR or something along those lines?

Thanks for nay help guys.

 

I know my 07 has a cam position sensor which makes it impossible for me to get the comp cams.

It's on the cam itself or something like that.

07+ had a more ported out exhaust manifold.

 

ok so I cannot use a earlier year motor in an 07+ car. just by the sounds of that damn cam sensor.

 

Nope. Not without a ton of work. I know somewhere on here there's a guy who put an 07 head on an 06 and rewired the car to run an 07 ECM so he could run HPTuners.

 

ok, thanks guys

 

I was just about to mention that that one guy did that. It's somewhere in a build thread. I believe he did press in that sensor.

 

oh, well if all I have to do is swap a cam and press in a sensor maybe it wouldn't be to bad. ill look into it.

 

It must be or everyone would have done it by now... Just saying, I say go for it, but I'm also dumb when it come to spending money on cars.....

 

heres the deal. im not trying to run an 07 PCM in an 06. I have the 2007 car. I can get an 06 motor for it cheap. if all I have to do is swap the sensor out and the cam, then that's not that hard, im not rewiring the car like the other guy did...
