There's adequate information at SPMotorsports.com (it's been a while, but I remember them selling a kit for the SVT LIM with fuel rail and injectors).

In my opinion (take it as you wish ) I'd swap a 3 liter engine into my car before I'd swap the internals (or all) of an SVT 2.5L Duratec.



Did the throttle body change make any improvement?



Yes, the throttle body swap definately opens better and my car pulls a bit harder. Though, the Cold Air Intake and Exhaust may have a bit to do with how -much- of a pull that my car gained in power, where perhaps it wouldn't be as much of a pull if the rest were stock. Anyone wanna chime in?

Anyway, post up some pics of the car when you get the chance!
