Hello all, so I have myself a 98 mustang gt and I'm looking to do a PI swap, and I have a few questions. First, what are the essential parts needed not uncluding the heads, cams, covers and rail. Also, what about the could packs, because the 99-04 have 8 individual coils while the 96-98 have two big coils packs, so how does that work with the swap? I'm having a Mechanic do the swap for me, I just need to have all the right parts to complete it. Also, I know some guys do get over 300rwhp with pi swaps, I'm wondering what kindo of cams are best for getting there? I have some 99 PI heads that I just had refinished at a machine shop, they're pretty much brand new. Any advice and information on pi swaps in general is greatly appreciated.

You're going to want 01+ heads for simplicity. You can put a Windsor on but it's more involved front cover wise etc.


Basically the hard parts and a few odds and ends. Have fun.
