NEW 5.0L Explorer motor Reply #45 – December 10, 2011, 05:47:31 PM Quote from: Gdub;375090Ok Vinnietbird, thanks for the heads up. The plan is to have the engine compartment as slick as possible so I will be using custom made stainless hoses for the A/C and fuel and since I don't have any of the Fox stuff I will give it a try and see what happens. Do you know anyone that has used the Explorer accessories?I am. Quote Selected
NEW 5.0L Explorer motor Reply #46 – December 10, 2011, 06:01:47 PM If your using the explorer parts, the pulleys are closer then a fox setup. So you either need to change waterpump/timing chain cover and the crank pulley to fox, or run the differently spaced explorer stuff. Quote Selected

NEW 5.0L Explorer motor Reply #48 – December 11, 2011, 12:41:35 PM Need to re-wire for starter Steering pump is higher than reservoir. ( Mount new reservoir above pump center line)Steering lines don't match up. (Make new lines or splice hard line with 2,000 psi connector)Alternator wired differently (same as 3g swap)Won't clear TC scoop plastic. (remove plastic)Steel heater lines won't work. (need mustang or 5.0 bird ones) AC lines will need to be custom madeThat's off the top of my head. If I think of anything else I'll let you know. Quote Selected
