[QUOTE="ajaf1656, post: 16344623, member: 196707"] I have a 99 Cobra motor and transmission that I'll be using to replace the blown motor in my 01 Bullitt. I was wondering what suggestions you might have for any modifications I should make before installing it in the car. As of now I'm thinking about long tube headers and aftermarket camshafts. I've installed headers on a 2v in the car and it was a pain. I'm assuming that installing the long tubes with the motor out and dropping the engine/ trans in already mated would be an easier option. I've never installed cams, but I can only imagine it's going to be worth doing it with the motor out. I also have a spare set of 4v heads that I pulled from an 03 Aviator. As I understand it, these should be the same heads. Would it be worth sending them for head work and swapping the heads out? It will be a while before I anything is ready, so I thought I's ask for your thoughts on things I should do with the motor on the engine stand. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
