Hey guys, my buddy unfortunately ran her car into the ground and now needs another motor. It's a 99 GT, and I was wondering if there's anything I should look out for while changing it. I'm sure it'll be cake, as we have a rather large shop, but I haven't got into the mod motors yet and was looking for a heads up on any of their quirks before I dove into it. Thanks guys.

You should be fine as everthing is rather straightforward. It will help if you label all the wires and vacuum hoses before you remove them so you will know where everything goes when you get the new engine in there.
