Default lq4 with l92's in mustang

what all needs to be done..to make this work..what headers to use..do i got to get a k member,change brake boosters?

engine will be a l92 with a 950 carb and a plate system under it and the msd box?

what will i need for a harness from a ls1 or ls6?

the engine will be out of a 01 tahoe complete and i plan on using the short block and what ever i need off the top end like coil packs and the rest will get sold as a top end.

thanks for the help

I would think youd need to conver to a f-body oil pan setup.

Also use the ls1 intake manifold... Dont know about clearance issues with running truck accessories and manifold in a fox.

ls1 intake wont work with the l92 heads and its getting teh gmpp l92 carb intake with a plate system under the carb..hoping for around 500 rwhp on motor and around 650-700 on the juice.the car will have a 4" cowl with a custom air pan.

the water pump and fan will be on switch.

i'm trying to figure out how much of the ecm i really need seeing it will be carbed and get the msd box..

if all gos well i will be picking up a 87 couple 4cly with a 8.8 rear tomarrow and i will start the gutting of the car

You dont need any ECM at all. The MSD plugs into the coil packs, cam sensor and crank sensor.....thats all.

yeah i like kooks stuff.

my k-member will be left stock because i'm going with a motor plate,but later down the road i will be going with a aje k-member

i just got a 4cyl coupe in realy good condtions for 600$ and it comes with a 8.8 rear,3 sets of rims..i'm going to sell the rims and start gutting it tomarrow and sell of the interior and install my kirky seats.

i'm going to drive it as a daily driver until i get every thing to do the full swap and then i will bust that out in a weekend.

i was thinking of running a th-350 with a 4500 stall but i might be going glide now with a 4500 stall
