[QUOTE="scottydsntknow, post: 16387448, member: 79824"] 99 is the only year with the same cams as that year Cobra. All 99-02 Contis have the 99/01 heads. I would get so many cheap engines out of JYs or small time parts sellers who didn't know the heads were the same ones as the Cobra. Made a lot of money flipping parts that way. Best was paying $200 for a whole engine and then making $800 in parts. But if you did get a bellhousing adapter I would read the thread completely. You have to drill and tap the block on the right side, hog out the AC compressor for the Continental size AC bolts, modify the starter and grind on the block by the power steering pump mount. Plus the GT oil filter fitting won't work, you have to use the Cobra one. Again, the ONLY reason I did this was because I got that bellhousing adapter for dirt cheap from someone on the corral who just had it on the shelf and I asked about it. If not I would have went with the real low mileage B head Mark VIII motor, deleted the IMRCs, changed the springs and rolled. [/QUOTE]
