Yes, the 50 cable is adjustable, the 2.3 Is not. the 50 cable will NOT work on a 2.3

-Speed Sensor

Dont really need it unless you running cruise control

-VAM Intake Tube (To Turbo)

I found a really nice 3" Riceboy intake hose at autozone that woeks great. It has adapter rings ro it fit the 3" vam, and 2.5" turbo inlet. It was cheap too

-Belts, Hoses & Tune-Up Parts

Just order em, get motorcraft stuff though

-UPR Blue Thunder/Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter

Got mine from stangnets Own www.partshopper.com I love my triax and i got it cheaper here then i could on ebay (~$140)

-Motor/Transmission Bolts

Just reuse the stock bolts

-Crossmemeber/Subframe Bolts

I am in need of these too as my current bolts are just kind of rigged up, I found you can get them on www.50resto.com

-Exhaust Manifold Bolts

I just used stock turbo bolts.

Granted the list will doube once I get to acctually install the motor in the car beacuse I'll find all the little peices that I'm still missing.

Probably triple..

Oh.. and dont forget to lube your Oil pump.
