It looks like there are several hits just throwing "S197 LS swap" at teh Google.

No we were talking about the ford truck 6.2.

Darren is swapping an LS into his...so I hear...

Lol, but I see this can be a nice section, there are a few cars in the forum that may belong here.

We have done 3v's into fox, 65 and old F-150s, those go here?

What about the coyote swaps?

I say yes to all. Matt D's thread of an 05-10 originally with a 3V swapped to a Coyote is in here. 3Vs, as they are original S197 motors, could be great threads swapped into almost anything.

IMHO, As long as the target vehicle itself is a S197, any motor swaps belong here, even the sacrilegious ones. Motor swaps into anything else need not apply.

 

[psfracer]

Yes I agree---I was just referring to the link to Ls1tech.

Well then... lets see some bad as swaps!

Then I suggest you moving this one here, this project is actually moving forward still as a aluminator, boss heads, cams and boost is near to be installed into it (and the actual coyote engine going into a new edge too)

 

[psfracer]

Ok done.

Someone said they figured out how to get the factory gauges to work with the coyote swap. Can anyone confirm that?

Don Bowles did a 6.2 in the S197. Had a ton of help from Roush. They are long time friends. The engine belongs in the Mustang but Ford doesn't get it. Now it's a Euro car, that hopefully gets enough sales to keep it in production. FWIW, an engine is just a pump, I have no issues with using any engine if works for you.

The guy that did the sbc 6.2 engine in the s197 is rolling in videos on youtube. Does a lot of street racing. Badass build!
