Not real sure on the specifics on the swap, but I do know that you will need to have some DEEP POCKETS!!!! That conversion is freakin expensive ( much better ) but expensive!!!!
There has been a TON of discussion on here about the swap, if you do a search I'm sure you can find all the info you need...........plus I'm sure that some of these guys will chime in and help ya out!!

Well like I said I don't really know first hand how much or how hard it is to do, I've just been told from a few guys that it can get pretty darn expensive...........but if you can do it for cheap that would be SWEET!! That is a lot better fuel system than this piece of junk we have

I bought my lines from PDR. But I have heard that Scheid made them. The pump, lines, and fuel pump are the three expensive items. I am on my 3rd P7100 since the swap was made 2 years ago. The idle always starts getting bad and then it will take spells of running on 5 instead of 6. This brand new pump is starting to idle rough after only about 1k miles.
