Default 4 Valve Swap Questions

Sorry If there is a thread, or writeup, but I tried searching and couldn't find anything useful...


But I was wondering how straight forward a 4v swap would be on a 2000 GT?

Lets just say I might currently have mildly worked '03 Cobra heads, 98 cobra cams/heads, '01 cobra intake and a teksid block or 2 sitting in the garage...

Just sold a car of mine and was wondering how complicated the swap was and what other parts would be needed before buying the car I'm looking at lol

as long as you got oil pan to intake, the things i can recall is: exhaust manifolds, cop's, cold air intake, thermostate housing/coolent lines, all your accessories will bolt on except altenator and bracket, and you will need to reverse and extend your cop wires. you may be able to reuse your throttle cable if its long enough

97-98 mark viii intake will work with an 01 style intake. Any mark viii coolant setup will work (unless they changed it for 97-98) The Alternator stuff can be a pain to find. Throttle cable more than likely will not work, mark VIII one should.

Read the guide in my sig. Everything will be the same except for the fuel rails and the coil packs.
