i still have that 351w that i posted about the other day but its going to get sold after i clean it up its too much trouble to try and drop it. but i came across a wrecked 99 mustang today with the entire engine intact. sat im going to go and get the intakes and heads along with the other misc. parts ill need for the split port swap. however there is this fuel rail issue...all i can find is that i need a custom fuel rail and ive only seen one it was $800!!!!??? are they f**kin Crazy? is there any way i can get around this i aint payin that bullshit.

800 is how much the FULL ssms split port swap is... i suggest you call them as and ask them if you can get just the modified fuel rail for this swap

[Jeffery9508]

well my cousins a mechanic whos going to help me. you think between the 99 fuel rail and mine we cant modify it on our own we have all the tools at our disposal, welding wise wiring ect.

[Onemanzu]

you need to find out the difference between the return style fuel rail and the return-less style fuel rail... ... you currently have a return style one...

[Jeffery9508]

k ill have to do that. seems like maybe cap the line off?

[Jeffery9508]

well while im on the subject. is there anything i should keep in mind or know. it would really help to talk to someone whose done it before.

[Onemanzu]

... well i hate to inform you but i haven't ever done this one... lemme see if i can find you a forum or how to or something...

[Onemanzu]

well the salvage yard has the entire motor there and the intake manifold (not sure if that includes upper & lower) was only like $20. so next week when i get paid ill have to get the heads too. i wonder....can i just use the 99 fuel system in the 95 and delete my fuel return system altogether?

I would think if you used the 99 fuel pump/ gas tank/ fuel lines and wiring with the complete 99 fuel system it should work. My understanding is that the returnless system varies the voltage to the pump to control the fuel pressure and requires the later pump.

grab the fuel rail off the engine you saw
or get them from rpm-mustangs

it be a whole lot better to do a windstar swap

How so?

[Avaric3]

i guess hes talking about the windstars upper intake, but thats not worth it even. if youre gonna do the swap off another car, at least do it off the f-150 so you get some more cubes. but youll still need the upper and lower intakes off the mustang if you do that

[Onemanzu]

for all three cars the lower intake is the exact same (split port wise) now for upper intakes ... don't do the F-150 intake its still metal so it transfers the heat that the mustang one and you have to do a shit load of extra work to make it work ... the windstar one is nice cause it does not transfer as much heat making it a more ideal intake to use for certain applications such as nitrous... if you just want to do a split port swap just do a mustang one you don't have to fab up a new intake pipe or fab up the cable wires and shit like that
