Geastb 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 I've got an obd1 engine and want to replace it with an odb2 - is it a straight awap? Or do i need any extra parts?Looking at gettin engine in next hour of ebay - so need info fast! Link to post Share on other sites
28v6r 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 In Theory yes! It should be a straight swap, but does the engine come with all the wiring/Ecus Etc?? ?! just a precaution that's all, incase you need parts etc.Good Luck, Hope you win! 8o) [ Edited Fri Jun 18 2004, 04:20AM ] Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 i think i know the one you're tallki about...it doesn't include ecu does it?i reckon you should take everything off it at the manifolds, and use your current stuff...and in my mind that should work. it'll then be an obd1 engine.

wilko-vr6 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 my question would be,if you convert a coilpack engine to dizzy,does the camshaft have the provision to drive the dizzy? Link to post Share on other sites
kilokilla 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 wilko i dont reckon it will also you need to change the plate the coilpack sits on as it doesnt have distributor hole as far as im aware Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 OBD1 doesnt mean dizzy... only very early cars had them Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 OBD1 doesnt mean dizzy... only very early cars had themyep, was about to say that.but i#m sure phatvr6 said it wasn't a big deal to switch between the two...though he may have been talkin about dizzy to coilpack.
