hi all. its been a while since ive been on here. busy with work, school, and of course, my stang! i originally bought a 97 lincoln MK VIII engine but decided that i wanted C heads, so after searching the corral i found heads and an intake manifold. it still has the lame rods and cast crank but whatever, i doubt ill ever go over 400hp. so far ive spent about 2300 bucks on this whole engine swap. i have hooker longtube headers dumping right now and it seriously sounds like 2 harley davidsons at idle. i ended up installing the engine/transmission/headers as one unit into the car. people said i couldnt do it, so i did it. anyway heres some pics. if you guys have any questions, then feel free to ask.

Looks awesome man. I wanted to do this swap but decided the money needed wasn't worth it.

Can't wait to see it finished. Do a write up! Im kind interested to see how you went about it.

thanks guys! i just ordered a JLT ram air for it and now i have the code p0102. its some damn maf sensor code so i gotta sort that out. then its done. i probably wont do a write up on the engine swap, but i had major header/steering shaft fitment issues so im going to do a write up on that for sure. i just need to take the shaft apart again to get pics of what i did.
