what transmission you using? Are you using mustang stuff to go mass air or? what motor mounts?? Putting a efi 460 in mine also :thup: I tossed my E40D and BW1356 putting in a C6 (will be issues connecting the kickdown, workin on that now) just got the NP205. I also will be converting to mass air using http://www.mass-air.com/ as I will need the new computer also to work with out the E40D (neutral safety switch??) and use the tweecer to tune the new computer in or have IST mod it.

Im going with a 2wd 5 speed stick, Im just gonna modify the driveshaft to the transfercase, as for the engine management, Im gonna install it stock, then modify it later on, Im probably going to use mustang stuff but I need to research it more. I looked into motor mounts but a friend of mine did this same swap, but carburated, into a fullsize bronco and made his own mounts and he said he would help me make mine. Im really an automatic guy, but none of my automatics are stock, and I cant afford the kind of built overdrive automatic that I would be happy with right now, so I will be rippin' gears with the 5 speed for a while. thanks for the interest in my project, maybe we can swap tips and info on this stuff as we get them figured out. my efi runs great right now, and I just want to get it in my truck the same way for now...and then on to the hop ups....

How did those cab mounts fit? I am at that stage on my truck and debating on buying mounts or building some of my own.

Thanks
