are you talking about the throttle cable & mounting bracket? if so, isn't the SVT TB 180 deg from the non-SVT? or do you mean something else...
The 3L UIM also would require some tweaking to use, plus the big hood clearance issues...
The 3L LIM needs modification to use as well.
i thought i read here that the 2.5 IMs also need modifications. what's easier? what fits? since i don't have an SVT i like the idea of dropping an entire 3L into the bay. i acknowledge that there is a hood clearance issue. would that be met by switching to a dry sump oil pan so that the engine can sit lower in the car? or would my transmission be dragging along on the road then?
