We had a couple bars set in there and I could already see that the Wolfe Racecraft kit fits 100 Xs better than the other so-called "kits" (S&W, Comp Eng, etc) out there. It hugs the sides nice and tight...

All that wiring looks fun.




How bad was the motor swap in your car? How long did it take, how hard was it, etc, etc...

Easy. If it's a 99+ 4V, you need return style rails from a 96-98 Cobra. Lengthen a couple sensor wires, weld a second bung in the coolant crossover tube (96-98 have 2 ECTs, 99+ has one), tune.

I'm picking up a 04GT and I can't decide if I want to sell it and buy a Mach1 or 99/01 Cobra or do a aviator or mach1 motor swap.

What do you think?
