I'm looking for a place online that I could order v8 motor mounts, tranny crossmembers, hoses, factory air filter boxes, just random stuff i would need for the I6 to V8 swap. Anyone know of one?
Unlike mustangs we don't get a lot of attention from catalogs. But companies like Critesperformance (they have the motor mounts and crossmember) and autokrafters can help you out. you can also use the I6 mounts to swap in a V8. http://www.mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=75640&highlight=swap Using the Search feature you'll get all the info you need, Since its been covered hundreds of times.
Thanks for the sights. I looked at some of the conversion threads but none really mentioned any good websites you can get these items from. thanks again.
Well most guys get their parts from a donor car or a member on here. It's usually cheaper than buying it from a website. Also autokrafters takes a really long time to ship things out sometimes, due to backorder or other problems. But they do sell quality stuff.
A lot of common replaceable items can be bought at your local parts store. Some items are not reproduced but are sold on here by members who have extras. Post an ad in the wanted section for those.
this site right here is the best online place I know to buy Maverick parts. If there is a Maverick part that you need and you can't get it here then you either don't need it or you aren't going to get it.
Even then, pretty good chance you can find it here. Ford never put a T-5 or an AOD in a Maverick, but ask the right guys here and they can hook you up with the parts to do it.
