Former Cobra guy buying a Marauder as a daily. Have missed the top mount since converting my '03 Cobra to a single 88mm, and then selling it for the current car.
Will be looking for all parts necessary. Figured a post here would be a good place to start. Let me know what you have and want to part with.

I'm in North Wilmington. Thanks for the welcome.
Plan to do the swap as quickly as possible to have it completed before getting rid of my current daily.

You also get the motor, wiring harness and PCM, 5k is a smoking deal.

I've already sent the seller a notice on that. If the required components come with, it may be an option. The engine having a knock, as described in another thread, makes it less appealing however. I've rebuilt a few 4.6 DOHCs and while it's not difficult, I don't wish to do so.

Yeah but the Trilogy alone is what you really want:cool:

Thanks for the offer. I've got a bit of experience around the DOHC Fords and shouldn't have much of an issue. If I have questions I'll be sure to give you a shout.

Buy it, sell motor, keep trilogy

No, a 2.2KB is what I really want. ;)
I like the Trilogy swap, but don't value that setup at $5k. I wouldn't pay $5k for an '03 Cobra pullout, and would find that to be a much more valuable setup.
All in all I'd prefer an M112 or an 03/04 Cobra based aftermarket blower. I'm not looking to exceed the power capabilities of the stock motor, so an M112 is perfectly fine for me.

Yes, I've already inquired on the setup. But at $5k that's still not a deal. The longblock may sell in as is condition for a thousand. Shipping/Freight is $500 to the shop.
$4000+ for a Trilogy Setup is not my idea of a deal. I also do not need the added hassle of having another motor laying around, I have plenty of those.

5k is the BIN price, reserve may be much lower, throw a 3k bid out there, you never know what may happen..........

:bandit: I'm lying in wait. The end of the auction may sway my desire to bid on it. Also waiting for clarification on which accessories will be included, IE Radiator, Heat Exchanger, Coolant Reservoir, etc. It could be a good deal, price being low enough.

Thanks. They embarrass the heck of my 8.3L 505 CID Chrysler product. Damn thing makes 472/517 through a six speed. Little more fun when the roads aren't straight though.

Looks like I've got a good Eaton w/ Pulley and Plenum, Heat Exchanger, and 39lb Injectors.
Will still need the other parts. A shame, I had everything just 18 months ago.

I have the parts for an eaton swap. I purchased the complete set up and then purchased another Marauder with a Trilogy, therefore I no longer need this set up. I believe it is complete, but I never got to install it. $2,500.00

Thanks but I've already got a good bit of the parts. I'm going to end up piecing it together.

Thanks for the help and feedback guys. Just need the swap brackets and crossover tube as my big pieces.
I'm debating making my own of each, but not sure what the timeline would be.
