Not entirely sure but i think you will have BCM/ECU issues, as in your BCM won't talk to the new VCT ECU. Ford can programme them together

Why the swap? i prefer the hp over the vct, alot more can be done mod wise with the hp.... You should have done a rebuilt on your standard I6, heads, cam, intake, etc
But i hope it all works out and everything goes smoothly ;) |
