good luck with the swap

You dont need to much...did one a year ago in mine...gt hood wont work.. stock wiring harness, strut tower brace wont work from gt, headers wont work from gt, cruise control cable wont work, people tell you throttle cable wont either, mine works fine though, If you use gt comp you need to remove IMRC's, have it tuned cause shes prolly not going to start when you first try to fire her up. Mine didnt and I know a few peeps who had the same problem, all I can rememeber off hand...feel free to pm if you need more help...

i think it would be better if you get the cobra pcm wiring harness and pcm.its just plug and play after that.tow it to ford and they will reprogram the pats for 100

06RedfireGT · April 18th, 2008, 12:38 AM

If memory serves me correctly the PATS system is a major PITA when doing this.

BizCutt · April 18th, 2008, 07:08 AM

its not to bad if you know the right people..wink.. I just bypassed it until I got the gt comp flashed...I put the starter on a toggle switch and away we went...When I had it tuned they flashed the the comp and we have been lover her ever since.. You dont need the cobra comp to make it work...still running my gt comp

sal33ns281 · April 18th, 2008, 09:03 PM

good thing my car is a 96 and cobra engine was 97. i didnt have to worry about the pats because they dont store it in the pcm until 98

lineumup88 · April 19th, 2008, 12:36 AM

all good stuff! just a few questions. what are pats and what are imrc's. sorry fellas i am new to the mod motor scene.

Black02GT · April 19th, 2008, 12:44 AM

cant go wrong with a 4v. goodluck with the swap

tcasoccer13 · April 19th, 2008, 03:50 AM

i dont know about the hood not fitting like the guy said a few messages up but mine fit just fine and i have the 04 mach 1 motor and 03 cobra tranny in mine... it takes a lot of time patience and work to put into this swap. o and money but yes it is very possible and i love my 4v in my 96 GT. alot of stuff will need to be replaced

HBK_2007 · April 19th, 2008, 03:53 AM

just out of curiousity but is there any difference in gas mileage when some one does a 4v swap?
