Any

Hi there, just signed up. I'm looking to install a complete drive train from a 2003 (4.6 DOHC Supercharger, 5 sp) into a classic Ford pickup. I'm investigating any potential issues I will have with the electronics/ECU ecetera. I'm looking to utilize the original gauge cluster from the pickup (updated with newer electronics. Any suggestions on people to talk to regarding this conversion?

That was what I thought based on what homework I've done so far. I have access to motor/supercharger/transmission/ecu/sensors/fuel pump/wiring harness and gauge package if required.

classic gauge concepts is one company that I would check with there is a guy here who took a 36 chevey pick up and put an 06 ZO6 motor and stuff in his and they were able to fab up an almost perfect factory looking dash I mean you had to look at the back to make sure that it didnt come that way. I will get a card tomorrow and post up the sitre if interested.
