Problem with the Supercoupe 3.8 is the eec is all wired in with the rest of the car harness. I gigantic headache to get it seperated and rewire the recipient vehicle for the 3.8. I did a Mustang like that for a guy back home. It was done, and semi quick as it was real light weight but it wasnt worth the hassle. It give me a new found hatred for electrical work, part of the reason I dont do any more of it now.
