    05 to 09 coyote generation 2 swap! Guide and help tips

    Easiest way is looking at the timing cover, or more obvious signs like the manifold or engine cover if its there. F150 cover has allocation for a larger route on the A/C belt.

    Battery Junction Box question for swaps

    If you have a complete donor car you likely want to swap most of the car over, as far as im aware many connectors are different though. If your doing a complete 5.0 swap into a 05-09 chassis I just personally prefer to run my engine controls seperate from the body harness components. Most people...

    Battery Junction Box question for swaps

    Are you referring to the fusebox? I think the battery part of the harness on these models is one big slew of positive cables splitting off to the starter, alternator, fusebox etc. Easiest thing to do is custom make the harness and run all the cables to where they need (Likely the oem 05-09 is...

    Sending unit for 05-09 coyote swap issues arising

    I only ran the 11-14 because it meant less drilling and other modification to the fuel hat or buying some of the expensive fuel assemblies aftermarket. Better parts binning for it overall and it no longer requires removing the axle to take out the tank, it is slimmer than an 05-09 tank and...

    Radiator capacity/size for a swapped 2018 Gen3 5.0 into a 2005 V6 base model

    I'm using the stock fan its the same 05-09 unless maybe on gt500s, v6 and gt should be the same part. The FP one has a metal drain plug to prevent it from getting brittle over time. Something to note is there isn't an easy way to set up the fan for low and high speed control. Best way to hook it...

    Gen 3 Coyote in 05-09 GT

    In my opinion your getting a stronger, higher performance motor out of a gen 2 than a gen 1, more capability out of it.

    Gen 3 Coyote in 05-09 GT

    The main things to note are that gen 3 is a little more complex, expensive, and time consuming. Theres more to gen 3s than a gen 1/gen 2. Gen 1s tend to be the easiest due to the fact that they did not come with certain things like IMRC(which do not fit in 05-14 body), so tuning is slightly...

    Water leak on passenger AND driver side

    This is the most likely cause, there is a ford replacement that you use a heatgun with to create a better seal to prevent this exact issue.

    Sending unit for 05-09 coyote swap issues arising

    Just updating anyone that see's this but I ended up swapping an 11-14 tank in the car to fully utilize the 11-22 mustang aftermarket for fueling upgrades. Worked out the best.

    Radiator capacity/size for a swapped 2018 Gen3 5.0 into a 2005 V6 base model

    I use the ford performance upgraded radiator for 05-14 cars, it works great. its extremely thick and you might notice some fitment issues with intake tubing though.

    Early S197 Coyote Swap Break Down

    That's surprising to hear, always seen all s197's as retro but 05-09 always felt very old school and 13-14 the most modern looking. They all look good either way though. 05-09 coyote swaps are definitely gonna be the most popular though with a couple v6 to coyote swaps in 11-14 here or there.

    Looking for guidance on how to swap instrument clusters

    I swapped my car when it was still a v6, with a 6-gauge gt cluster and other then getting the switches for the center dash it worked perfectly including being accurate with the tach and speedo.

    2014 GT oil blowing out diff vent - how to fix it?

    Well if your tracking the car unusual things can happen like this, which is why tracking the car usually means more maintenance. There should be a fill hole on the backside of the diff and I would just check it when you inspect the car after a day at the track, its unlikely to lose that much...

    2014 GT oil blowing out diff vent - how to fix it?

    Its normal unless its just excessive. When I built my rear axle it looked like it had a lot of blowby but I bought a new insert when it was taken apart and it hasnt had any issues leaking out. If replacing the plug fixes it then its fairly cheap option.
