With due respect your lifting method using seat belt webbing is DANGEROUS.
The proper method is to use the Ford 5.4 lifting attachments(see my photos) but due to the extraordinary width of the modular engine the lifting attachments could not be utilised as the Cobra engine bay is narrow.
I used brackets, "I" bolts and chains.
I elected to buy a Boss 302 intake plenum with adapters(see photo) rather than chopping and welding the OE intake manifold. It was not cheap!
My next task is to modify the steering column and fabricate the headers.
The 5.4 Ford engine has a boxed style exhausts ilo of oval.
Can any forum members show how there headers look like?
