iRoush's 5.4L GT500 Swap

[Boozshey]

So as many know this project was scheduled to be done two days ago. But like any project, they sometimes go over schedule. Now referred to as a painters calendar... None the less this is normally a 2-3 week project we are knocking out in a week.

I have pics from my cell phone and from my camera, so I will post the cell phone first and then the real camera second...

 

[Boozshey]

These are from the regular camera...

Sweet jesus, that makes 3 now. Is there a sale on GT500 swaps than I'm missing?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

+1 where are you guys grabbing these drivetrains from?

 

[Boozshey]

places that sell salvaged cars. It takes 2-3 weeks to get a donor. As long as we have someone in line we look for them.

Nice work! Really amazing

 

[UltraKla$$ic]

I absolutely LOVE seeing the carnage you guys create. Those wires, dash, motor being pulled is an utter disaster but you make it come together like it never happened.

I almost get wood over this. LMAO!!!!!!

BTW, wtf does iRoush use his car for? It looks dirtier than a freaking 4-wheel drive truck romping in a mud pit!! CLEAN THAT BAD BOY UP!!!!!!

Boozshey, you could run a chop shop and never have to work again!

Love the pics! I'm envious.

I'll say it again, you got talent my man! I betcha Henry Ford is doing back flips in his grave!!!

 

[Boozshey]

Thanks, I guess I won't tell you then that what you are seeing was done between 1030am and 5pm today with an hour lunch.

 

[UltraKla$$ic]

You'll be doing these in your sleep. LOL!!

Guess I'm going to have to sell my Harley and then get in line with you.

THIS I WANT!

[CMK720]

[killr3v]

Damn Bruce. I would've already gotten tired of doing the wiring over and over haha. Nice work!

 

[RetroGT2006]

[BLKBULLITT]

With the kind of money youve spent on your car..

Yeah.. Id definitely get in touch with him haha

 

[iRoush]

Hey all.

Thanks Bruce! I can't wait to get my car back today!

As for the car, that's 80,000 miles of living in that car. Almost literally. I've slept in there quite a few times when out paint balling for the weekend and the tent blew over. lol. But yes, next thing is I'm ripping out the interior and cleaning everything.

 

[NotQuik]
