I'm in final prep to begin my build and would like to network with others who have built coupes using the 4.6liter motor.
Please let me know who you are....Thanks.

Donor: 2003 Mach1 5 speed with 5,031 miles on it when it was rolled back in 2003....
All parts have been cleaned and prepped.
Will use donor harness as the car will have ABS and traction control, power steering etc....

With my kit, I ordered the 4.6 roadster pack and side pipes.
Q: Who's headers did you use (recommend) when upgrading over the factory manifolds?
I want to be sure everything will mount up properly for side body exit point.....


Apologies for posting this in the wrong forum areas....I hope I got this in the right place this time....

I used a SOHC modular out of a 2002 GT. Used all the ABS etc that you are planning. On the side pipes they will not come anywhere near to the coupe pipe openings if you ordered with no body cutouts you will be ahead of the game just creating your own. I am using the stock manifolds and J pipes but that makes some of the AC to compressor connections difficult so the roadster headers might be a good option.
