98gt swaping for the 03 mach1 dohc help

[roger32v]

I blow up my 98 gt not a good thing I know . I didn’t just want a stock sohc to put back in so after looking and looking if I was to build a new eigen I was better off to get the 03 mach 1 crate from ford racing . I called ford racing and ask what all would I have to chang they say new fuel regulator and use my 98 gt harness and cut in for the cole on plug no big deal so I go and drop the $$$$ for it I know it would be ok b/c ford racing said so lol RIGHT !!!!!!!! well no ther is so much more . so now im looking for the harness to the cpu or maybe if u have done this swap u could get a hold of me and tell some of the stuff u did

Haven't done it, but I know you'll need to replace your brake booster as well, since it's going to interfere with the DOHC valve cover.

PM Fomoco98. He just dropped a Mark VIII engine into his '98, which requires essentially the same stuff. He might be able to give you a fresh incite.

yea but that is the 5.4 and it has a taller head plan I got the motor in and it don’t hit nothing its all the harness stuff

The Mark VIII runs a 4.6L DOHC, with the same exterior dimensions as the 4.6L DOHC that's in the Mach 1.

.....and before you reply, I have two words for you......"spell check"
