No, meaning if the engine turns out to be defective, you should have extra 600k to replace it.

The swap can work, if skilled technicians handle it. Do your research. They said we couldn't swap a range rover p38 4.0l v8 in a defender (I'll create the thread soon �) . But we not only did it, we swapped in parts from different cars so the defender drives like a new car and has crazy acceleration. You need a very good electrical guy, not just a rewire.
Sorry to go back, but is there a thread now?

Not only that, the earlier we stop removing thermostat the better.

The earlier we stop buying double cell radiator the better.

The earlier we stop connecting cooling fan direct the better.

The earlier we stop revving engines at cold start the better.
