anyone know whos done one..???

 

[myponyrocks]

I know there are a few Fox's that have done it, thats why I'm pretty sure the 3V would fit in our bay.

it fits, blocks dimensions are the same.

the hard part will be the computer. the easy part is the physical swap.

Making the VVT work would be a bitch with your puter though. You could set the timing at a perm setting and not use VVT though.

Here is a 2000 that did the swap. I'm sure he could answer some questions.

i was reading on another forum that if you switch to comp 3V cams you will eliminate the VVT.

PM billfisher when you get a chance. I believe he's done the 3V swap already.
