I did this exact thing with a 2005 and 2018. I had to cut both the dash and Guage cluster to make it fit. It's roughly the same size, so nothing severe, but the angles and connection points are different.

This is really great. Thank you!

Thanks, I also looked up the wiring diagrams, but couldn't figure this out as the locking mechanism and windows had disimilar/asymetric wiring setups. I also tried to use the 2018 fuel tank entirely, but when I put the car on the ground, there wasn't enough clearance for the drive-shaft. So I...

Thanks for sharing. This is both inspirational and informative. I'm doing something similar, only without any of the expertise you have. I'm especially having trouble getting the heater box and door motors/switches to marry up with the donor vehicle CPU and control module. It looks like you...

Thanks for the advice on spending $, but still doing the research to learn more about this hobby/passion.

Im putting a 2018 gen 3 coyote in a 2005 chassis. I've used nearly everything from the donor vic: to include tranny, exhaust manifolds with cats, CAI, PCU, etc. However, the gear ratio in the pumpkin is 4.10 and the 2018s have something lower (I think 3.55). It's a manual transmission; do I...

But in all the YouTube videos I found, it was always a 4.6 to a 5.0 Coyote; not V6 4.0 to the coyote.

Quick question for the group: is the 2005 4.0 a returnless or return style fuel system? The reason I ask is I've put a Gen 3 coyote in it; I barely know what I'm doing, but I know the 2018 donor car had a return style fuel system. I've installed the 2018 donor evap system and the fuel pump...

Thanks. That's helps with the decision.

Thank you. I'm wanting to use the old stuff since it's more efficient, available, and I have the right equipment to charge the system. Is the reason the shop manual calls for the R1234yf because the charge ports only match that type and because it's better for the environment? Or will R134a...

...and since I have lines from both systems, I have fill ports for both R134a and R1234yf.

I'm on the final steps of the coyote swap. Hope to start it up tomorrow. But first... I need refrigerant. The owner's manual for the Gen 3 motor says to use 1234yf Refrigerant, but the 2005 system used the old stuff. The compressor and half the lines are from the 2018, the condenser and...

Thanks. Racer 47, I private messaged you.

Hello, I'm putting a fully dressed Gen 3 5.0 into a 2005 V6 Base Model. I'm guessing I need a better radiator, but could probably recycle the fan. Or is the '05 V6 stock radiator enough for daily driving and 3-4 AutoX and TrackDays per year? Can I reused the fan already in the car? If not...

Thanks Matt for the videos. I watched them all and subscribed. I'm putting a Gen 3 from a 2018 into a 2005 base model. I'm super excited as it's completely over my head and beyond my skillset (youtube trained). I'm doing the swap with my 18 year old daughter and she is set on putting the...
