Motor is all ready. Had to have the studs removed from the old manifolds. Yuck. New valve cover, oil pan and timing chain gaskets, and crank seal. Ready for install now. Maybe sometime this week.

Combo is in. Everything is taken care of underneath. Just have to order a set of intake manifold gaskets, then carry. It might be running by this weekend. Might.

Got it all kinda in. Forgot small things, like:
I kept the 03 timing chain cover. I failed to realize that it does not have the provisions for coil packs on the front, and it takes a different belt then what I have on hand. I'm gonna convert it to COPs, and make the harness for it, since I have that stuff on hand.
Also, the 03 intake manifold has one coolant sensor, whereas the 97 has 2. one for the gauge, and one for the fan, I presume.
I have to install the RAS pump too. I have it. Just gotta put it in.
Progress.

I actually followed a guide from someone who had done it. Apparently it can work, it just didn't work for me. The modular and I are not fast friends.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Well, I'll let you guys know if it works for me.
It's either going to work, or it isn't. BOOM.
I'm making the harness tonight; Inside, next to the fireplace. I already brought a folding table in to work on, lol.
So, tomorrow night might be go time. Or Friday. I'm hoping to at least attempt to drive it this weekend.

Theoretically, it should have worked. I have my theories as to why it didn't, but without the original PCM and wire harness to test, I couldn't tell ya.
