Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Well, I could've sworn it wasn't like this when I picked up the car but I most likely overlooked it, the cruise control cable to the throttle body wasn't connected.:LAUGH:

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

I used all the stock brackets, turn out fantastic. Just a bunch of cutting, drilling, bending and polishing.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Well im doin it this weekend finally, just had a small question. did you guys need any special tools? ive got everything really, ive got all my fuel line disconnects, wrenches, air tools, jacks, stands ive got alot of hand tools. i dont have a ton of speciality tools so thats why im asking if anything special is needed.

Oh and i have torque wrench as well, according to alldata the t/c bolts are 18lbft? So i need to make sure mine goes that low.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

can anyone help me with my alternator wiring ppppleeease?

When i wire the way the factory plug was, plug it up, hook up the battery, key out of car, the connector and pigtail will start to get hot after prob 5-10 minutes, if i reverse the wires (switch the outermost wires) it does not get hot, it charges good (13.4-13.7) but the battery light is coming on and off. Im afriad to burn something up...thanks..

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

So on the Cobra oil cooler adapter are we just suppose to the Stock mach gasket where it bolts to the block. I bought a cobra gasket and installed it with that. Will it leak with the cobra gasket?? Thanks for the help.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Honestly, I could not answer that. I just have always reused my gasket. I have compared a cobra one to the mach 1 and they look identical. I can't remember if the part #'s matched or not but I don't see them being any different since the base of oil cooler adapter is the same as the mach 1. There isn't some extra hole or anything that would cause any problems.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

I used the cobra gasket and dont have any problem but i want to say the part # are different but the cobra and my stock gasket looks the same.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

It's threads like these that really make this site so valuable. I almost wish I didn't see it....it's putting ideas is my head!! :3amin:

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Mines still running great! Ended up having some belt slip and at around 10lbs I make 465/425.

Love it, very addicting.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Nice #'s. What made you decide to up the boost?

I didn't even get to drive my car for a week after putting an eaton before I tore up the intermediate shaft in my auto car. It's parked again now. It's been about 4 months since I last drove the car.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Well actully I never did, I was having alot of belt slip issues (wrong size belt for pulley) So I fixed that and then noticed the next day it shot up to 10lb right away. Because I didnt want to go over 8lbs lol. But it happens, Eric says he's very comfortable with it, tune is very conservative he said. So. It runs great, doesnt act up out of boost or in.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Just wondering, is the fuel filter in the cobra the same as in the mach??

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Yes

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

Thanks, just figured it was easier to ask than to crawl all under the car.

Re: Eaton Swap.....
 

When swapping timing cover, do you have to take off oil pan?
thanks
