Hi guys, i just bought a GTP donor car that im going to take the engine and trans and put them in my GT, I would like to know what are the exact parts that i need to complet the swap correctly.

thanks
 


so
-engine
-tran
-Pcm
-Engine harness
-Passenger axel

anything else?
is there any modification to do?
 
no.

replace your motor mounts while its out.

check the oil pan as well.

might as well do things to ensure the motor is 100% before you put it in.

i.e. LIM gasket, VC gaskets.
 
what year gtp is it? you dont need the entire harness. you have an 02 GT so your injector connectors are different. pick up a set of connectors from zzp for 40$. when i was supercharged i ran my GT map sensor, and it as fine. i also ran the bypass valve off of vacuum. personally i would go through the engine before putting it in
 


Im getting the swap done by my mecanic and for sure he is going to check the engine and trans before the swap.

the donor car is a 2000.
 
$40 for injector connectors is 35 too much.

go to a yard.

$5 for all of them.

I'm saying replace the LIM gasket and VC gaskets regardless.
 
I am in the process of doing this conversion right now and since tou have the wiring harness go ahead and change it. If you plan on using your gt transmission you dont need the axle shaft but you will have to send your gtp pcm in to be tuned for the 3.29 gears. If you need any help with this just shoot me a pm and I will give you my number.

ideally you'd keep the GT transmission and drop the L67 in.

3.29's make boost more fun.

2 bad i dont have the time to get someone to tune it. its my dd so cant waste to much time
 
YOU CAN SEND IT TO JOHN AT INTENSE AND HE CAN TURN IT AROUND IN A COUPLE DAYS AND DELET ALL THE UNNECESARY CRAP LIKE THE EGR, EVAP AND REAR 02 SO YOU CAN RUN A CATLESS 3" DOWN PIPE. hE TURNED MINE AROUND IN LESS THAN A WEEK.
