    I will be using this as my swap guide. Great job! I love the intercooler placement because of the small bumpers. I don't see that nearly as much as I would like.

    Thanks for the compliments. I drove the car to and from WaterWerks this past weekend and it ran flawlessly. I put over 300 miles on the car in two days and enjoyed every minute of it.

    Is there a benefit of wiring your 20v swap the way you did?

    I don't think there are any particular benefits other than I was able to leave my main body wiring harness in place rather than rewiring the entire car with a CE2 wiring harness. I didn't have access to a CE2 wiring harness when I wired the car so that was my motivation for taking the route that I went.

    Just read through your entire thread. Outstanding work, probably one of the better and cleaner ones I've seen
