Brake Hoses, 18" Enkei RS5, SVT Engine Mounts+Inserts, MSDS & y-pipe, Trubendz resonated exhaust & MagnaFlow cat

You shouldn't have any problems doing the swap. I do however agree with abwamo on the rebuild. You'd be better off rebuilding with a Quaife anyway. '98 SVT Contour, in at least 639 pieces 4 Speed MTX...synchro and shift fork replacement in progress

On top of that SVT's do not have ATX's either. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
