[QUOTE="MustangChris, post: 665107, member: 10830"] So, this is the WHOLE story: my GT broke. I post a classifieds for a PI 4.6... Jeff tells me about his home boy witha termi. I called his homeboy and set everything up. i get the money for his motor. I called my head-guy to see how much my termi heads would cost to build for *my* custom build ($2,000 or something like that... and considering i dont have the internals, this is out of my budget) so i ask him who he suggests to tune the termi motor and he told me. i called them. He said that they can tune it with a popcicle stick and a ball point pen if needed, but he suggested the terminator equipment due to extra sensors. (two of which being IATs regarding the blower??) so i start pricing this jibber jabber out... $150.00 for the engine harness, $250.00 for the dash harness, etc. etc. etc. All the motor work will be done at my uncle's shop. he has lifts, tools, cranes, etc. I was going to leave the fuel and computer stuff to the tuner, but since i will be with my uncle and have every tool ever made, i think i'll give it a shot first. so thats where I'm at right now. right now im going to just read more swap threads on modular fords and see what i decide. the problem is there is no "right way" of doing this. everyone has done it differently. considering my final build will be a 900HP top mount motor, i would like the car to be terminator inside, as to have a more . .. "logical" computer system. I guess that could wait until later. Im going to do full bolt-ons for the terminator motor while its out of the car... (this includes a ported eaton) do you think that the 96 computer stuff will handle everything okay? JR, i sent you a PM. [/QUOTE]
