He has a 2000 but bought some older perimeter style Patriot ported heads and needs to know what all he needs to make them work.
: perimeter valve covers (whats a fair price for a set?)
: Coils mount to valve covers on them years
The questions
: Will 2000 FRC's fit on perimeter valve covers?
: Is their anything else needed to make these work?

Just so happens im doing the opposite swap, but I already have valve covers. The wiring on the newer ones are closer together. The old ones have 3 coils facing the same way then the last one is flipped. newer coil pack wires are diffrent lengths. Also the clip to mount the connector is diffrent. If you want to work out a trade I will be willing to swap you wiring looms and ill even give you the old valve covers if you pay both shippings. I even have the bolts and gaskets that are still good.
