Do you know where I could get that hose? I was thinking eBay for the missing parts because eBay has everything.

850 Engine Swap

Just a crazy idea I thought of, I’m going to keep the engine after the swap so I can take it apart and and rebuild it to practice working on engines and under stand the engine more. If the engine comes with a turbo, is it possible to take my turbo right now and put it on there to make it a twin turbo set up? Not saying I’m going to do it but that thought just came across my head.

Your manifold and turbo will bolt up fine.
if you're gunna try to make it a twin turbo, then that's an issue. You'd need a custom exhaust manifold to bolt on 2 turbos onto one engine. But if you know the right people, anything can be done.

Good man. Take lots o pics and label everything you disconnect. Use pieces of cardboard and make a sketch of the part you are removing then you can poke a hole and put the bolt thru it to keep track of where they all go because the length of bolts can be different even on the same part. White or yellow paint markers are good too. Take your time, use your head and you'll be fine.

I’m going to Colorado for a week in two days but then when I’m back I’ll start it. When the engines out I’m going to keep it and disassemble it in my garage to understand the engine more and know how it works. That’ll also make it easier to get the engine back it and working again too. Just curious how many hours do you think it’ll take to swap the engine and transmission?
