Default SOS s/c install

Hey everyone. So I'm recieving my SOS stage 1 kit this week and wanted to do the install this weekend. And the guy who promised me help with the install bailed on me (damn mustang guy). I live in central nj (bordentown/florance) I have everything needed to do the install. Just wanted a second pair of eyes and hands if need be... If there is anyone with experiance with this kit or other s/c kits and is willing to help fellow s2k owner out please let me know. Thanks!

I wouldn't mind helping but I'm gonna be busy this weekend. I think there a few threads in the fi section of people that installed theirs that could be helpful.

Its not that hard. If it's your first install just take your time, have patience and take breaks if you are finding yourself getting frustrated. Im not sure but doesn't it come with instructions?

Ha! Yea... I'll be alright. I've done motor swaps in the past, so this shouldn't be rocket science (of speed)... I'll post if I run into a snag. N let ya know how it goes! Tkx!

If you have done swaps this should be cake, just take your time. SOS includes a pretty decent install guide.
Not sure what tools you have available, but definitely pick up a 14mm crows foot & universal joint to use for torquing down the SC bracket to the motor.
Regular sockets will not fit on a torque wrench in those spots.

Im at work right now, but will post up some more things when I get home
