Well I finally pulled the trigger and bought a BOB from a 1998 Scorpio but...the engine was removed by a cut-everything engineer so I will need some guidance on what vacuum pipes, water hoses and cables need to go where. Car will come off the road late October then i have allwinter to swap gearbox, flywheel, 4x4 sump etc.

I do have the ECU but I've read that it will be looking for a signal from a non-existant autobox and probably PATS will be a PITA so is it best to go for an aftermarket ECU? If so, anyone selling one or have any recommendations? How much should I expect to pay
