Another build thread... why not

[DKblue98GT]

I like all of your cars but I am too lazy to type. I look in on most of the builds but don't want to be the guy who has nothing to add.

Not much has been going on lately. Happen to get a car cover to put over the car to keep it out of the sun so much

Also got the motor almost ready to get swapped in. Just have a few things I need to figure out hoping next weekend get it put in.

Any one have any info on how to get the 97 fuel rails to work on the mach motor?

Im assuming that the return rails from your current setup will not bolt to the new intake setup?

No there in a different spot on the mach motor. I found one thread where a guy did it but the pics are gone and I'm trying not to spend 300 on fuel rails

It appears that you have to cut the mounting brackets off and get them welded in a new spot to mount to the mach intake manifold, or you have to go aftermarket.

Well finally got around to start getting the motor ready to be pulled out.

All I have left to unhook is exhaust motor mounts driveshaft and tranny crossmember. Motor should be out next weekend and mach motor put in. When it will run I don't know but it will be in there

Also took the chance since the bumper was off to paint the core support since it was real faded and rusty looking looks way better now hated seeing that through the bumper

Are you going to pull the motor from the top or drop the k member?

Good luck on the swap. It seems like you did the cobra swap in no time, hopefully it's easier the second time around and there are less bugs to work out.
