- 1997 sport ohv 5spd
hello, i just bought dge61785's 97 explorer sport. it has an ohv, great motor, runs stong, but i have a buddy that rolled a 97 xlt with the sohc. The sohc motor blew up b/c of the chain tensior problems, and they put a new one in, then rolled it. 80k on the new sohc. i am pretty sure it just drops right in. all i believe i need is a flywheel for my 5spd transmission. does anybody know what wiring has to be done in the swap, assuming i plug in a sohc 5spd computer?
