$100 is great Adam.

As for the horns Gabe: yeah, you won't hear them and neither will the car in front of you. I thought mine had died (that's where they are) but not, they just are too quiet for that spot.

Really?

Meh. Maybe I'll just keep in the same spot they are now. You can barely see them anyways. ;)

Ordered a bunch of parts for it <_< Local dealer made some money on me.

New front engine mount bracket. Different than the 98 style. Found that out the hard way.

New climate box damper motor clip. Damn thing broke in my hand as I put everything back together following the evap job.

Pressure plate-flywheel bolts. Had some, but no idea if they were the right ones and the person I bought the swap kit from didn't label anything.

And Volvo manual trans fluid. Too afraid of Redline locking up in the cold.

I have run Volvo stuff since the swap in FL (forever ago) and it's fine. Shifting is harder in colder weather (gears aren't as smooth) but for 11 months of the year, it's perfect.

Yeah I think so.. if I have a new cable and housing... can't I just rip it out.. the white clips come on the new throttle cable. I mean I will try to finesse it out but still.

Mine broke when I replaced mine with the manual throttle. IIRC the new one just snaps into the firewall anyways.

Pretty much what I was saying in PM. Have at it.

Thanks guys. I am going to do my silicone intercooler lines at the same time since I want to make sure the throttle is correct with the tension on the cable. I am going to stretch those intercooler hoses with my huge hands and use engine oil to shove them on.
