2.4 Engine swap! :D
So i have a quick question, my 08 LE5 blew up and i was told to get a 06-07 LE5 cause is has forged internals. Will the 06-07 Le5 bolt right up to my tranny and motor mounts? and what is better a 06 or and 07 LE5? thanks

Yes, it will bolt right up. 06 or 07 shouldnt matter as long as it has the factory forged rods. Casting #'s are as listed below...
