Not Ranked
I took the hood off. It was just easier that way.
There were a couple of big issues that need to be resolved.
BEFORE you drop the engine in, take out the pedals. Once the engine is in, that rod won't come out.
- you'll need to mount the DBW throttle pedal to the back wall.
- I think the pedals are too far apart. You can change that to fit you better.
To get the headers centered in the openings, we had to modify the motor mounts a bit. Make slots instead of holes. I used solid mounts. I also had to trim the cowling a bit for the supercharger.
The stock Mustang wiring harness places the ECU in the front right corner of the engine bay. You'll need to re-wrap the harness to move it back to the firewall.
Pay close attention to the steering column. Mine hit the valve cover a smidgen.
The stock alternator will not fit. I had to use an 80A racing alternator.
Install the headers with the engine lowered in the bay, but not down on the mounts.
I love the 6R80 6 speed auto. So much fun to drive.
