Dropped the Gas Tank today, installed a 255LPH pump (just to make sure it doesn't starve) and beat out some dents my not too bright son put in the tank while jacking up my car. (not to mention trashing my undercar lights) Got it done before sunset. yay

I'm impressed that you've stuck through this swap for so long. Can't imagine too many others making it to the end.
I've been slowly restoring an 85 gt vert but have an 86 lx vert that was a v6 laying around as well as 97 vert. Also have a 97 and 04 v6 laying around and been debating what to do.
Sounds like you should be starting up fairly soon.
yeah. I am making fuel lines now and putting the new pump under CPU control, but all this damn rain... ill keep y'all posted

255 in a stock hanger is a bad idea. Hard to keep pressure under control.
Well guys Spring is here (hopefully) and work can resume after the wettest year ever. I will be wiring CPU into the fuel pump wiring I made for it then off to have the fuel lines done at a shop. Lets hope it runs by Carlisle Ford meet in PA in June….

i was wondering how this sixer was doing... I'm starting to develop an obsession for the 3.8s somehow. Even if the CFI is difficult to please.

Harness, upper and lower intakes, H pipe, o2"s and whole intake system, or a 97 or thereabouts donor motor, and if you wanted a real kick, a '99ish F-150 4.2 shortblock

Update: Spaghetti removed, Power to ignition coils and IT FIRED !!!!! Tomorrow she goes to have fuel lines made, and Fuel injection checked. It has been a long time to get here , and many hurdles, but I see a glimmer of hope. I want it running by Carlisle, but doubt if it will be painted or done by then.

PROGRESS!
