Default Re: 5.0 Swap MD50R2 and BW4406

So ran into a few minor problems on it today, you learn something every time you turn around with this thing, first issue that had to be solved was the starter relay's ground- it gets it through the PATS module. So i had to cut the blue/orange wire and run it to ground. Second the A/C controls in the PCM are wired differently from 97 to 00 and i found that out the hard way and lit my compressor clutch on fire last night. FML!!

Have a question for anyone out there: The small coolant lines that run from the heater lines on top of the block up to the intake manifold- What do they do? I broke one of the small ends on the metal line and have a small coolant leak despite trying to fix it with JBWeld. Any ideas? can i just get rid of them or should i be buying a new one?
