Gabe, are those pieces hydro-dipped?

Picked up some cams for the 3-2-1 swap into my first gen s197. Still gathering parts at this point. Hopefully I’ll actually start assembling the engine in the fall. At this point I’m focusing on an NA build with the option for boost later on. Looking to be in the 450-470 range NA. Once I drive...

I’m curious if he still has this build 9 years later…..

If you’re looking specifically for 2006, I’d want to see if the spark plugs have been changed. The design on 2005-07 have been prone to breakage when they’re removed, especially if they haven’t been done in all these years. I believe 2008 they updated the design. There’s more knowledgeable...

All the John Wicks are awesome movies. I recently seen the Beekeeper, also a very good movie. Next on my watch list is this remake of Roadhouse that just came out. I like the idea of Connor McGregor as the bad guy. Hopefully it does the original some justice.

What are these CDs that you speak of? Lol Just kidding of course, I am old enough to remember using them all the time. Now I have a JVC unit that and I just stream music from my phone. I’m not an audiophile so if there is a difference my ears can’t appreciate it and if I was an audiophile I...

Cleaned it up. Going to take it to work tomorrow morning for the first time this year.

I have the 4 piston up front with the 13/14 rear brakes and I have not noticed any ill braking effects from this setup. To be fair, my car is a streetcar so I don’t push it to the very limit on public roads, but during spirited driving it hasn’t been a problem on my car.

Thread '4.0 to 3.7 V6 swap' https://www.s197forum.com/threads/4-0-to-3-7-v6-swap.140825/ Not a coyote, but he did swap the interior and everything like you have mentioned. His thread might be a good place to start.

Which 19” rim are you going with? I can vouch personally that all 19” wheels do not clear the 6 piston Brembos from a s550 Mustang. I have AMR wheels with 19x8.5” up front and 19x10 in the rear. The wheels have plenty of depth to clear so offset wasn’t my issue, the inner diameter of the 19”...

Wow, a lot has changed since that post! That engine turned out to be complete garbage and I’ve since purchased a new gen 3 block, gen 2 heads, and I’m gathering the gen 1 timing components. I was extremely excited when I seen you released the wiring harness and that is on my short list to buy...

https://www.s197forum.com/threads/05-to-09-coyote-generation-2-swap-guide-and-help-tips.135999/ Post #3. I purchased the hard line that juice mentions for my swap. Matt Soppa also has a video on YT where he actually shows you the part number. You cannot buy it new. I bought mine from someone...

I just sourced one of these for my coyote swap. It was difficult to find but I ended up buying one from a guy who was parting out a Mustang. I can’t believe that this part is already discontinued.

I’ve seen a VIN flash mentioned in this thread. What is the purpose of this and how is it accomplished? I am doing a 3-2-1 Frankenstein coyote swap and running a PATS deleted gen 1 ECU.

Looked through some of the threads and I couldn’t find my exact question so here goes. I am doing a coyote swap in my 2008 Mustang GT. I have the stock coyote headers and midpipe, as well as a full exhaust system off of a 2013 Mustang GT. Will this fit the car? I know all the components go...
