    I think the install presented two problems, part or the casing had to be shaved down for clearance under hard acceleration and the check trans fluid light flashes as a shift indicator
    What about the wiring harness & the ECU eric ?

    Is all 100% compatible with that engine or requires additional mods ?

    According to the 2001 aurora the engine handles 250 hp @ 5600rpm. Torque is 260 @ 4400rpms.

    Does anyone knows how much $$$ that engine cost ?
