Hi Cameron
Nice to see that you are so far advanced now.
With the wiring question, don't dispare!
We have a EL XR8 with Smartlock and had no problems!!
I think I have posted this before, but if yours has a smartlock EEC you will need to buy yourself one of the magic black boxes from the place in QLD.
Our auto electrician normally works on Hot 4's, but had no problem working out the Ford wiring system. Any auto electrician worth his money would know how to wire up any car!
I have a number of web sites in my favourites that have detailed code explanations along with the computer model that belongs to that particular engine that will tell you what sort of EEC you have and what you can use as a replacement EEC to the one you have.
It all revolves around pin number 4 on a 64 pin EEC. The computer that we used came out of a ED Sprint/GT manual. The existing computer purchased with this motor was an auto - NO GOOD. Hence we used a 5 speed computer to avoid problems down the track.
Let me know if you need any more help! Been there and just done what you are about to get into.
Kind Regards
Lyn & Peter McArthur
