Update: The engine is running smoothly! I basicly had to swap all the sensors since the ones on the 00 engine all had differnet connectors. The only one that didn't fit was the knock sensor - the hole had to be enlarged for the old sensor. I used the LIM from the 95 because of the fuel rail/injector incompatibility.

But I must say that after seeing the MUCH larger size of the LIM from the 00 and the ported to match heads I really wanted to use that LIM!

I did pick up a LIM with injectors and fuel rail from a 99 Cougar. The cool thing about it is that the 99 injectors fit in the 00 LIM but have the same electrical connector as the 95 (turned 180° though). And the 99 has the return style fuel rail. (I'm sure you all knew all of this!) Not sure yet if the plastic harness cover will still fit with taller injectors.
