    03 Monty Swap Question

    This has me puzzled, I got a 03 Merc Mounty engine for a swap into a 97 GT, I posted some q's about it before. Heres the thing when I got the engine I cranked it over by putting a ratchet on the crank pulley nut and it turned just fine. I swapped the front cover from my 97 and tried to crank it...

    Trickflow Cams?

    Not serious, just wanted some extra power and a good idle to go along with the long tubes'x-pipe/pullies/cai not really thinking of throwing any power adders at it

    What Cam to Put In Monty Engine

    I know a few have this setup, what is the best all around cam to put in the 03 Mercury engine swap? Also are the oil pan/valve cover gaskets reusable at all? We have LT/x-pipe/pullies/cai already but I wanted to do a cam swap before droppin in the engine, thanks

    Calgon take me Away from my T-5 woes

    Is it holding up well. I called D and D and they said I would need a new bell, clutch fork and a driveshaft spacer, all this was included in their TK0500 kit for $2400. Also I would need to move the stock cross member mounts on the car, did you do these things.

    Calgon take me Away from my T-5 woes

    Well looks like I broke stock T-5(aka crap) for the 4th/5th time I forget. What kind of manual trans are you guys running, and I mean running hard without breakage I've looked at the tko500/600 but seems like a pain to install in the '95.
