Default RE: 4 cyl swap to 289 v8 mustang

first off take out the whole wiring harness basically except for what hooks up your lights and horn and stuff. it will drop right in and bolt right to your trans. your gunna wanna get a nice stand alone dizzy my friend has one you can change your timing from inside the car with another attachment on it. an msd box or mallory which ever you prefer and someone else will chime in with other stuff
