I haven't done it myself but had it done to my old 96. What did you need to know, I may be able to answer a few questions... That top end is the way to go [ 2014-03-09, 08:29 PM: Message edited by: 5Porn0 ]

I haven't heard or saw anything like that but I doubt it. The heads are different so you'll have to use the Mach1 or 99/01 cobra intake. As far as the TB goes, you can still use it. I've reused mine when I had the swap done. You'll also have to change the timing guides if I'm correct.

You need the c head to b intake adapter and I believe it's just a direct swap

Get a COP conv harness if your gonna run the 99+ valve covers a member on svtp sells them easy to find or you can re-use the b head valve covers with the coil towers and wires,also get yourself the b upper to c lower adapter plate that's also sold from a member on svtp that way no need for a throttle cable swap/cruise control or re wiring the IAT.The 96-98 fuel rails need to be modified a simple tig welder and relocation of the bracket is all or a fuel rail kit.The 96-98 coolant crossover works but also needs the tab re located/welded..Also the knock sensors will not allow the c lower to fit so delete them in the tune and leave them unplugged and trim the plastic if need be,pretty straight forward swap,can't wait to do mine good luck bro [ 2014-03-09, 11:01 PM: Message edited by: SIC9250 ]
