Eaton Swap..... - Page 18 - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Okay the swap is happening. Im more concerned about the shaker bracket. I read through allllllll the pages and saw the shaker set-ups. but im still not to sure about how the brackets are being set up. where are you getting the parts? anybody have a "how to" for the bracket? please...

Mudd92 · 09-13-2010, 11:25 AM

I dont have any pics but I took a flat piece of alumin, mounted it to the bottom of the shaker alone, drilled 2 holes in the center to blow air ontop of it. And then took measurments of the 3 places I would put bolts in on the SC, and made 2 brackets, mounted to the bottom of the shaker, then ran the tabs and mounted it. Ill try to get pics when I get a chance.

Get ready for some razor like cuts. It was not fun breaking that stock plastic crap out of the bottom of the tank.

It is just that easy. You will see when you pull the pumps and hat out what needs to be removed.

What are the tools necessary for the whole process. I know fuel line tools, but not sure what size, the straps, thanks. I may wait t do it after the eaton swap, but before i get tuned. the guy im doing a swap with is trying to charge me $150 to do the fuel hat/pumps swap and removing of the basket. do i just rip it out of there after i carefully ease off the top of the basket?

Yea when it comes to working on electrical and fuel stuff, thats where i get cautious. But ill prob do it myself before i get the car tuned. I was looking for a write up, but didnt find one. Maybe ill do one with some pictures, unless someone else knows of any writeups out already

Just the fuel line disconnect tools, 8mm socket and 13mm socket wrench and long extension to make it easier.

Make sure to clean off the top of the tank so nothing gets inside when you have the hat off.

OEM/Fuel line siconnect tool

Is this correct? And thank you for the info!

link didnt work for me but you can get them at auto zone or somewhere for like 10 dollars.

04Mach1Blurr · 09-30-2010, 01:29 PM

okay thanks, yea the site was from autozone.

04Mach1Blurr · 09-30-2010, 02:15 PM

Is this everything necessary?

Where does the cut yello wire go?

04Mach1Blurr · 10-05-2010, 01:20 PM

Update:

Okay the swap is complete, just have to wire in the I/C pump, install fuel pumps and hat, and drive it over to the shop to get dynoed. Hopefully everything will be good to go. Did an EGR delete, idles well, starts great, fixed the fuel leak at the injectors. Just got to figure out a bracket for the shaker.

xXAzureMach1Xx · 10-05-2010, 11:36 PM

make sure you run a relay to power the IC pump. did you do the head coolin mod?

Na i just wired it into the red wire that's on an ignition switch. So constantly runs when i have the key on. Also removed the center of the thermostat and my temp gauge on the dash reads colder than normal now. No head cooling mod.
