Default buying 2.8 tommo

Soon Ill be joining the ranks of swapped Ti's...

Im buying a 2.8L tommorrow and I hope to start the swap within a month or so..

the engine ...
from a 1997, 150000km's
it has all parts still connected, ie: ac comp, starter, ps pump, motor mounts etc etc ... its so complete he says the clutch is even still attached (no tranny tho))
also getting the ECU and wiring harness, rad fan, plastic trims

$700 for everything


I plan to swap my 3.46 open for a 3.25 LSD as well... and eventually do the brakes.

I know the swap is pretty straight forward, although i plan on buying Jims manual cause im sure ill get stuck somewhere...

but for clarification, I will have no problem using my tranny from my Ti with the 2.8, correct?
It does have a basically new M3 clutch, ltw flywheel, M3 slave already installed

and ive read alot of threads on here, but im still an amatuer, so whats something i might easily forget or may overlooked until after ive already dove into this swap.... i want to be %100 prepared before I make the leap.
