Words can't even express how sweet your engine swap is. Thank you for sharing these pictures with all of us. Coupe of questions:
What exactly are you drilling in your 3rd and 4th picture and why?
Were there any other differences between the Z and G engine besides that A/C bracket and wiring?

well i put in solid steel motor mounts, the bolts were just a little bigger so i grabbed a drill bit and made them slightly bigger.
i had to swap the complete AC compressor brackets from each car, i left all the compressor, condenser, etc attached so i wouldnt have to fill them back up. the compressors are different. probably cause the G has dual climates???
couple plugs inside look different but i think it will all work. matt and i figured out that the only thing a Z has that a G doesnt is the gauges at the top (oil, battery, etc) i am thinking it might be for that..

its funny the engine was laying on the ground this morning, it rained for hours and now the car looks about 95% together. i hate the hose clamps that the greddy kit has and i am going to buy some new clamps to put on all the pressure sides. i broke about four of them, all i have left is the front bumper, hood, test pipes, and the utec stuff to mess with (boost solenoid, map sensor, fuel and timing maps)
then i will ready to drive it!! i hope to be able to start it tomorrow !!!!!!
