Ok long story short I blew my motor and bought a new long block that I thought was 03 to 04 but it turned out to be a revup motor. Does anyone know if this motor will work in my 2003? I know we have to block off the secondary cam sensor wholes but will the motor run without the vvl?

Any help would be great. I know alot of you are going to say just buy am 03-04 motor but I got the motor for 750 bucks and really want to try and make it work.

 

yes you can. you will need to plug the exhaust side vtc.

 

how would you go about plugging the exhaust side?

 

Did the engine come with a full wire harness and ECU?

 

It only came with the long block.
Motor is up and running I will be getting it tuned on the 31st using osiris uprev with megan long tube headers 5/16 md plenum spacer arc intake and hks high power exhaust.
I will post numbers when I get them.

 

so did you plug the holes or did you swap heads? info sir

 

???

 

we plugged the holes in the revup head. and it runs perfect im getting it tuned tomorrow.
