Re: Eaton Swap.....
Pretty much the last thing i need to know before i start the swap. Where does the IAT2 sensor get wire to the harness?

Re: Eaton Swap.....
What kinda boost levels is everyone running safely on a stock bottom end?
What is the hp/tq GAINS you are seeing with the eaton swap (+90hp...+120hp!?) When doing the eaton are you guys having them ported and such like the Cobra guys do, or would that be too much power for the stock Mach block!? |

I thought about having mine ported, but didn't have the money. Porting I don't feel would hurt as it's making the power more efficiently rather than adding more boost which would hurt. I think 1 or 2 had a stg. 1 port, but nothing bigger than that. Quote:

Re: Eaton Swap.....
should have worded it alittle better. Im using the IAT2 and i have the plug with 4 wires. i know what 2 wires to use on the plug but dont know which wire is the IAT and the SIG RTN when i cut them from the MAF plug.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
I am planning on starting on my parts search by the end of the year, and was curious. Ive got 98 cobra intake cams, how will these perform with FI? And esp. with a eaton/whipple, maybe kb.
Thanks! |
Re: Eaton Swap.....
I might consider selling my stock long block and buying an '04 cobra long block once I have the car paid off next year. The engine swap sounds like the cheapest and easiest route to take. I'm not sure how much money I could get for my stock engine but I would imagine a fair amount, considering it will have under 40k miles on it next year.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
^^^ I'd give a little more thought about adding the weight of that cast iron block, plus the weight of the blower and accessories to the front end of the Mach. The Aluminator gives you all the benefits of the Cobra engine with the weight advantage of being all aluminum. Less filling, tastes great!

Re: Eaton Swap.....
I guess I could pull the rods and pistons out of the cobra shortblock and swap them into the mach aluminum block, then swap over the upper half of the cobra engine. There's so many options that one could go with.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
Yes I know, but it's probably easier to buy the whole thing rather than piecing together parts.
|
Re: Eaton Swap.....
or just buy a swap kit for alittle over 2 grand. and run 8/9lb of boost
Swap kit is better, then that would allow you to save up for a new shortblock if you need one. I had alittle over 3500 in my swap how ever I done some other stuff, and I just got my whipple in today so its early christmas :) |
Re: Eaton Swap.....
If I could get everything I need as far as the eaton setup goes for around $2000 that would be a good deal. I mainly just want to quit using nitrous. Right now I'm making 422hp 504tq on a 100 shot and I would like to make somewhere around that with the blower. Though I have a goal of hitting 11's N/A before I do anything.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
So based on what I have read, I am better off using the Mach wiring even though I have the cobra harness?
|
Re: Eaton Swap.....
Sorry to jack thread, I was curious to know why you have to grind down the block slightly to accpet the 03-04 Intake manifold? why is that, is that just an option or is that mandatory? all though everything was a direct fit, since the mach's use 03-04 Cobra Heads to begin with.
