    those 5 drain holes need to be plugged not only cuz the gs doesnt have them, but the 63 head leaves portions of these 5 holes exposed and you dont want something falling in there and causing you problems do u?

    the drain holes are plugged because the DOHC block doesn't have them, plugging them helps relieve crank case pressure and keeps the oil flow system tighter
    AH so you did figure it out..cool.

    Didnt think about the sensors

    So part list question...well the simple list anyway

    1 or 2G head
    GS head gasket
    GS ECU
    GS Timing Belt
    ARP Head Studs

    Am I missing anything? And what benefit from 272,275 or 276 cams would you get with 450cc injectors to support?
    Its not as simple tho. Since we have OBD1 and OBD2 harnesses, the GS ECU is not a option for 96-98 guys who will need to pass inspection and the GS ECU just wont communicate with the OBD2 scanner. The best and cheapest option for 96-98 guys is the 96-99 Spyder GS ECUs if you want to stay N/A.

    The list continues:

    GS cam gears or Adjustable cam gears
    Depending on what DOHC thermostat housing you use /1g is better and simpler/ you need the water pipe from water pump to thermostat
    lower and upper radiator hoses
    these are the freeze plug you need:
    1x1/2 inch freeze plug; 2x5/8's freeze plugs, and 2x11/16's freeze plugs
    94-95 Engines will need 1g CAS to work with 1g ECU or the GS ECU
    96-98 Engines can use 1g CAS, but it needs some rewiring to reverse injector firing order and spark plug firing order, because the 2g Spyder and turbo ECUs cam signal has reversed polarity than 1g GAS.
    The other option for 96-98 engines is 97-99 2g Turbo CAS and requires no rewiring.

    APR studs /7 bolt engines have bolts, not studs/ are not mandatory, but the better option than OE or OEM 2g DOHC bolts

    sorry to jump in but if a wire up a 1g cas can I clock it like a dist. or is it solid mount?
    because where it would go looks like a freeze plug

    IDk dude, i found this on another forum and posted the pics here.

    Basically, you need to take the distributor apart so only the body and shaft are left. thenyou need to take the 1g CAS apart down to body and shaft. The shop will have to get the pins that hold that little rotor then machine down the distributor shaft so the 1g rotor fits and then machine the distributor body so it looks like 1g CAS

    Works great! I used a 92 distributor but I wish I had used the one on mko's pic. It looks like there is more room for adjustment on that one, my wire plug hits the thermostat housing.

    Not too sure if I understand, isnt that spot where the CAS could go where you would want to hook up the distributer?

    Im trying to go ahead and make this work, I nabbed a complete 1g head for 68 bucks at the yard last week
