Default Junyard.

Ok well I went to the junkyard today. There was a 1999 Mustang Another newer mustang that had a turbo. And an 85 mustang and a 89 Mustang. All EFI. Is there any parts I should go back and get. Best part is Uncle is buying most of my parts because he wants to help me do that swap really bad. He's helping me buy the car to. From what my mom tells me atleast. So I was planning on using my day off to go to 2 other junkyards that are close by. Anything I should be considering?

The turbo coupe is wrecked. So it's not going to be driveable.

Yep.I really don't want to take out my fuel tank I heard there were external pumps where I didn't have to. I would Like to keep my gauges and most of all cruise control. I hope it's possible.

Why? Gas tanks are easy, ive dropped mine many times.

Your gauges are determined by the sensors, not the engine. Your gauge senders will thread right into the engine. Cruise control works off of vacume and a cable.
