    Have a very similar build going on myself. Mines a 97 but I swapped all of the sheet metal forward of the firewall to an 04 and using an 01-03 grill. Mine has a 96 Explorer 5.0 with a stock Fox cam, ported GT40's , and ported lower intake. I'm using a 96 f150 PCM to run everything (only year Ford had OBD2 with a distributor in a 302). Tune it with SCT PRP. Mine is a flareside as well and will be white also. I have polished 17x5 and 15x10 Weld RTS' on it.
