do you have the key for the cobra? it has a transponder in it.otherwise you have to tow it to the dealer and arond 75 to 150 bucks they can program one for you. the key is important to the swap but i dont know how the signal gets to the ecm though. when you find out tell me so i know for future refrence. when you get your car running you will be happy with the swap and even happier with a blower.my 97 kicks.

It sounds like you may have fixed your problem. I just bought a 96' Cobra drivetrain w/manual trans. Any info you can give me on the swap. Thanks.

What did you have to pay for the engine? I am looking at one that needs rebuilt, and trying to figure ifits worth it. It comes with harness, pumps, etc. Thanks.
