Forcefedhatch Posted March 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Well I think I may end up best of both worlds the.. I can't fine a descent dark charcoal dye.. so I may end up dying the seats, carpet, and headliner black.. give it a lil contrast as well.. but.. should the pillars and back 1/4 window trims be charcoal or black to match???..I'm thinkin black..Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefedhatch Posted April 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Drivers door wiring is installed. . Only snag I've come across is the dome light switch wiring and position.. on the 94-98 it's just a lil push button on the door where the 99-04 is on the latch on the other end of the door.. sooo.. that's not the biggie.. The biggie is the 94-98 is a 3 wire (black, red, green) and the 99-04 is a 2 wire black and yellow and solid blackWiring installed. .94 to 98 3 wire plug..99-04 2 wire (attached to door lock actuator wiring)Sooo.. once I get this figured out. . I'll update that. . Most likely will be near last.. I'll need power to test each wire.. and see if one can be eliminated for the use of the 99-04 as a direct replacement and plug in..Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Well finished the drivers side wiring. . It only has a 2 wire plug.. (black and green) sooo now I'm kinda stumped. Hmm drivers is 3 wire and pass is 2..hmmmGalaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Well started atleast assy. On the interior.. everything looks great.. minus the fact that I noticed all the air bag and air bag module connectors are different.. those most likely won't get hooked up anyway.. so.. installed airbag delete ... lol.. but i also hear the wiring is different for the 99-04 column than the 94-98.. sooo.. I'll find that out when I get to it i guess.. it all plugged up fine. . But can't test till power is on it.. anyway.. here is how it looks so far.. I'm still working on the dome light wiring issue in the doors.. but it's not priority right now.. once again.. When I get power.. I'll then find and sort the lil wiring issues..More to come soon..I'll be on it early tom.. and all day too.. may try to start engine disassembly, and removal!!Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefedhatch Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Yup.. by the time I add up catalytic converters, copper, aluminum from the v6 (heads, intake), k-member, and bottom end all in scrap.. plus sell the 2.25" flowmaster delta 40's that are on it.. I should make a few hundred I'd say..well hope to anyway lolGalaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Well engine bay wiring, ecu harness, dash harness, and chassis harness all installed and hooked up..looks factory!!Once the steering column multi function switch and harness arrives I'll be installing them.. then buttoning up the wiring and interior.. Still routing the underhood fuse box wiring through the wheel well and stuff.. but other than that.. it's going very smooth.. alot of little details.. A complete donor car IS ABSOLUTELY NEEDED for this swap!! Atleast for efi anyway!..Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 I do like the factory 99-04 ccrm location. So to clean it up a tad I opted to use this.. I'll need to extend the wires for the fan but.. I think it's a well worth it mod!!.Since the fan wiring for the 99-04 I a 2 wire setup and not 3 like the 94-98.. I'll use that wiring and the 99-04 radiator and fan assy. (Mine were junk anyway).. and I'll just use the fan hi wiring for its control..along with a 180* t-stat.. should still run cool.. If not I'll opt for an external control or something of the sort..Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Well washer reservoir pump motor also has a different plug design.. This one's seems easy tho! Lol.. it's a two wire system.. both harnesses have same color wires for this.. One black and one black with white stripe.. clip the 94-98 models end offThen strip your wires.. match the colors. . I am using butt crim connectors and heat shrink tubing to insulate..Here are the plug differences. .94-98And 99-04And all done!!Connect to reservior!The engine bay is now complete and wired for the 5.0.. next is fuel system and engine/trans removal, K member swap....then install!!Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefedhatch Posted April 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Me too :-( and I agree... I think it's a worthy swap.. alot of people say I'm going in reverse with the swap.. that I should go mod motor..I disagree. . Mod motors aren't my thing.. once I buy a 4v powered mustang I'll then make my comparison.. but the overall goal for this car is to do a full termi nock off , but with a blown or turbocharged pushrod as the powerplant. . My version of how I would like a terminator. .Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefedhatch Posted April 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Well found this on youtube for the seat... soo I'm going to go this route, but I'll be using the plugs from the factory harness, and adapting them to my harness.. As well as I think I found the plug for the seat belt to be a direct plug in on the seat frame.. I'll update it later.. of course when there is power.. but ill update with pics of my work.. and the true test will be if it works when powered up haha..This will work for you guys wanting 99-04 seats in your 94-98's as well..Watch "how to install 99-04 mustang seats in a 94-98 mus…" on YouTubehow to install 99-04 mustang seats in a 94-98 mus…: http://youtu.be/Sx1K4aIpYlIGalaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Ok.. here's the underside.. 6 way adjustable.. first.. seat belt indicator plug.. I found the plug. . And it looks as though it will be a direct plug in for our 94-98 harness..sweet!!Here's the 4 prong plug on the seat.. and the harness pigtail I removed from the 99-04 harness.. If you don't have this pigtail.. refer to the video.. that way it will work..This pigtail I will integrate into the 94-98 harness for full seat operation and functionality! !Next update will be harness integration and seat installation. .

Forcefedhatch Posted April 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Ok seat wiring complete. .Yay..Two green together, to stripe blue wire, black to black. I'll test when powered up..The two green wire connection could have been better.. but i ran out of solder.. and used heat shrink butt clamp instead lol.. It'll work fine tho. .Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Now.. remove the fuel tank, pump and driver assy. As well as in my case I'm going to try to use the 94-98 filler nozzle.. This one's rusted to shit.. and useless anyway.. Then follow the fuel lines and at every plastic pop riveted tie down use use a 3/16" drill bit and drill out the rivets...****MAKE NOTE TO HAVE REMOVED THE RIVETED HOLD DOWNS, THEY WILL BE USE TO REINSTALL INTO THIS SHELL!!***Once all lines are removed including fuel filter assy.. install the donor cars fuel lines (rear end will most likely need to be dropped or removed for this step.).. Also install donor cars fuel filter bracket assy... then fuel tank can be installed..**if there is any body work that requires welding the prime time to do so, especially rear quarter wise is while there is no tank in the car**I'll put pics up soon of these steps.. As I have some welding body work to do for a quarter repair.. and I am going to install the fuel lines, tank, and exhaust system at the same time that I install the 8.8 from the donor car.. so during that time there will be a huge post with lots of pics and as well as poly bushing install on whole rear end.. for now while I have access.. everything under the car will now be sound deadened and undercoated. .Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Looking at the wiring for the 94-98 models wiper motor vs. The wiring for the 99-04.. Ko da crazy all the colors line up....minis one important wire. . The yellow with a red stripe.. This is what I believe to be your main power source for the 94-98 models.. 99-04.And 94-98Sooo.. to avoid wiring this and bypassing this or that.. I got a deal on a 94-98 model wiper motor to swap into this shell.. (****add that to the list of needed items!!****)Galaxy S4 ActiveThis is how she sits now.. I am going to move some things in the garage around and the next step most likely this weekend will be engine and trans removal..Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Lol me too to be honest.. I love the body style.. hate the drivetrain.. maybe one day in learn to love it.. but for now my cammed pushrod is music to my earsGalaxy S4 ActiveStarted some body work till I get a free day to pull the engine and trans..Cut out the only small rust spot I could find on the car I cut a section from the old car for a patch.. I'll be welding and filling it soon.Also poly resin filled the trunk holes.. for a wingless trunk lid look.. hoping to find an 03-04 cobra spoiler reasonable for a replacement.. till then it's wingless. .Galaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefedhatch Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Found a small rust spot on the pass side frame and starting into the shock tower.. sooo.. I'll be heading to lowes, grab a adequately gauge piece of steel to weld in and call it a day.. normally. I wouldn't worry, but I took a hammer and pounder a hole right through.. but no biggie.. Easy fix with the engine out! !.. I'm also going to Degrease the shit out of the engine bay.. and undercoat from the frame rails down to prevent anymore rust laterGalaxy S4 Active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forcefedhatch Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Well got the panel, welded it in, undercoated the shit out of it.. and painted it as close to the oem color as possible.. either way.. much better than the rust hole that used to occupy this area..
