BF motor. It practically bolts directly into your car. Don't run it without the BA/BF Pcm though. Im in the process now of putting a BF motor in my EL. I had a DOHC EB those motors are awesome in PRE-B series. B Series slow them down with their fatness. Its easy to remove security and bits these days too.

AU 5 speed bolts up including flywheel. you have to drill the hole for the clutch cable in the sump. unless you swap for BA sump.
Wiring can be a head F*** but doable. then u need to either flash the security out or use hp edit etc

Its easy to remove security and bits these days too. do tell....... Best way to go about it is too find a BA PCM from a UTE without ABS this is the biggest pain in you don't. If you don't get a NON abs PCM you need a V.I.D block edit ford can do it or Xcal3. But that will sting. Reason is without a VSS signal (The abs pcm get the speed from the abs unit via CAN) they will go into limp home after 5 minutes and limit the engine to 3200RPM. All I needed with my PCM was to have PATS turned off , Auto disabled, MIL light off with VCM suite this cost me $150. Think I covered everything.

thats alot of money to fork out for an au, not keen on a weekend backyard/ front yard job?
majority could be done in 1 day between 2 people who have little experience.
