I know that I am going to sound like some troll here, but I have to say this now. I have a 1999 Ford Taurus with a 4.6 32v V8. And I didn't have to cut anything from the Taurus body for it to fit! If you all believe me, I will explain what I did and how I did it. Thanks! Oh, and how far will flex hose for radiators bend? Thank you!

We have had good reason to doubt such claims. If you could, posting pics of your engine bay with multiple angles would help a lot. If you have done it, congrats. We'd def like to hear how it went.

If I can beg or borrow a digicam from my parents, its a go. As of right now it's in there, but with only the fuel lines and a couple other things hooked p right now, I took the box with a lot of the bolts and nuts home so I have to dig all that up. And is it hard to put in a sway bar with the subframe in the car? thanks

no you dont.....

Post pictures and then ill consider believing you. And whats witht he question?

BTW: how are you installing an engine and asking the qustions you are? Plus, untill its all up and running, you have no claim to fame. I had a 5 speed sitting in my engine bay at one point. Does not mean that it will work or that i should go around claiming "i have a 5-speed taurus".

I'll bite - we'll need to see some sort of picture. You can upload pictures here. Gotta understand, we've had trolls that said the same thing. A lot of them...

So if just one of us don't believe you, you won't tell the rest of us what you did?

*edit*
And the rest of that was necessary because...

He could just be from the south. That is the way we talk.

I would like to see pics of the car.

So did you use the ECU from the 4.6L? How did you handle all of the wires going to all of the sensors and speedo cluster? What car did you take the 4.6L from? Did you have the custom fab engine mounts or locations?

What is your location? I am sure someone from the club will be happy to bring his camera and take pics.

Well doing a search of this users post reveals that all his posts on this forum have been about research for this project. So maybe he did do it. But as said in every post before me. Hook us up with some pics. Or have a forum member come on down to check it out with camera of course.
