A good friend of mine recently lost his Lightning in an accident,
but we have been getting the crazy idea to drop his engine and blower in my 1999 Cobra Convertible
I have seen one at a car show, and know it is possible, as the 2000 R
has a 5.4 liter, but does anyone know (WHAT ALL THIS WOULD ENTALE?)
I am guessing that we will need the Lightning computer and harness, and I am already looking into subframe connectors etc.
But what are the MAJOR things that need to be considered?
Can my tranny be used? If not...what one should I go with?
Any help or suggestions would be great, as I need to know what I am looking at financially as well I think this would be one hell of a winter project, and that only means a CUSTOM paint job too!
Please post any suggestions, words of advice, want to try and decide this week
