[QUOTE="BeanCrusher, post: 14931875, member: 170453"] While my swap is still siting on stands, it is running and my tach and gauges work. For the tach I ran the tan/yellow CTO wire from the FRPP harness blunt leads directly to pin at the back of the instrument cluster. (I forget just which one right now and don't have my books. Mark has a great write up on his site.) I have not confirmed just how accurate the tach is, but it is close enough to be plausible, unlike your picture... Mine is a 96, for the record. To get the oil pressure gauge to work, you will need to remove the oil pressure switch on the Coyote and either install the switch from the 4.6 and attach it to the OP wire on the old harness (I think it's w/r, can check), or, as I did, get a 0-100psi autometer sender and a MeterMatch unit and make your OP gauge an actual gauge. Again...Mark has an excellent set of instructions for this. On second thought...you may be able to use the Coyote OP switch, I forget now its specs. It is just a switch, not a pressure sender, and (per Ford) the FRPP Control pack does not need the OP signal connected to function. It only uses that signal to send a message on the CAN bus to run (presumably) a 2011+ cluster. I removed the Coyote OP switch and associated wiring from the engine harness on mine. For the Temp gauge, you will need to install the 1 wire coolant temp sender from the 4.6 into a coolant passage somewhere on the Coyote, as the Coyote does not have a coolant sensor, the control pack uses cylinder head temp for its data and figures things out from there. There is a threaded plug in the block, just aft of the filter and OP switch where you can install the 1 wire coolant temp sensor from the 4.6 and connect that appropriately to the old harness to drive the gauge. How are you running the A/C, or can you not be bothered by such horsepower robbers? [/QUOTE]
