.....cool, no egr. what was your reasoning? would that prevent my UIM from getting so fouled up with black carbon (or am I a dumb ass)?

Ok, so although I want this to be simple I also want to do it right and I would agree with 3LPOWER that the injectors need to be upgraded. If the SVT 2.5L has 19's then 17's would logically be strained on a 3.0L. I would be interested to hear about A2Steve's experience with the 17's on a 3.0L.

Thanks for all the help. Good advice on planning money right for the swap. Along that line of thought the bare minimum that will allow future upgrades would be:
- Use a 98+ LIM and UIM (preferably SVT)
- gut the secondaries
- pillage 3.0L injectors, fuel rail and harness and splice it in (any year 3.0L I assume)
- get a chip burned for my setup
- use SVT cams if money allows (or complete heads for that matter)

Interesting about the MAF and how OBDI restricts me to stock. So does that mean there is no alternative to stock and does that pose any real limitations? I did notice the Pro-Flow listed on spmotorsports for 95-2000 so that is either a typo or do they sell one that is OBDI compliant?
Optionally down the road I should get an SVT throttle body with the TPS.

Sound right? what am I missing here? lots of questions sorry. I have been doing a fair bit of searching but with all the possible combinations for a swap it's nice to have afirmation for my specific setup.

Thanks guys.
