Took a trip to the closest Boneyard.

The Mark VII H-Pipe will have cats.I hollowed mine out and used nice turbo lers and the sound was great.Deep and serious.LOL.Do you have the H.O cam already? As far as accessories.All of the ones on the stock motor are just fine.The Mark VII used a different alternator bracket (larger alternator).So,to sum things up,
What do you have already?
What are you getting from the Mark VII?
Mark VII parts needed...
injectors
Intake assembly (upper intake,throttle body,spacer)
E-7 heads (grab the factory aluminum valve covers as well)
factory headers
H.O cam
ECM
H-Pipe (bolts right to the headers,fits our chassis)
Dip stick tube (grab it,they are getting harder to find anyway)
Keep all of the bolts you pull off...headers,intake,timing cover,etc. Timing cover bolts are widely know to snap off,and the header bolts are different than the stock exhaust manifold bolts.
New parts....
gaskets (intake,heads,valve covers,water pump/timing cover,headers,throttle body,oil pan,rear main seal)
fluids
timing chain (double roller)
water pump (now's the time to add a new one if yours is old)
spark plugs for the E-7 heads
oil filter
Also,an H.O or larger (higher flow) fuel pump would be good.
That's a good start.I think I hit it all....If not,someone add to the list.
