I just purchased a wrecked 2003 MM and about to install this drive train in my 99 Crown Vic Police Interceptor. I have a couple questions that need answered before I do the engine swap:
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p>
1. Can the PCM be flashed/chipped to eliminate the PATS system in the MM PCM? (I don’t have the MM HEC or ignition keys). The Crown Vic PI does not have the PATS system installed.
<o:p> </o:p>
2. If I go with the returnless type MM fuel system, do I need to install the MM fuel pump only? Are there any other changes required to use the returnless fuel system (ie. additional fuel pump relays, sensors, etc) on the CV?
<o:p> </o:p>
3. If I use the existing CV return fuel system, are there any PCM changes required to recognize the returnless fuel pressure sensor will not work. (I realize the fuel rails require modification for a return line and fuel pressure regulator)
<o:p> </o:p>
4. Are there any other major issues I should be concerned with before making the engine swap?
<o:p> </o:p>
I’ve already performed many searches on different forums and have not found a definite answer to my questions.
<o:p> </o:p>
Thanks for any help.
