I saw your link prior to making my post since your link doesn’t answer my questions either.

You'll need to convert the stock returnless fuel system to the Coyote style return type system. It uses the stock type fuel gauge sending unit so the fuel gauge can work correctly. Hence I posted the PBH and Fore fuel system conversion kits.
To make the speedo work correctly, you need a device like the Dakota Digital speedo signal interface to convert the VSS signal from the Control Pack into a format that the stock speedo needs to work correctly.
The other gauges will work directly off the Control Pack. Keep in mind that PATS, TCS, and cruise control will be disabled, and the rear O2 sensors will also be disabled so that'll be an issue if you live in CA.

Thought about doing the wire conversion with my 2006 gt but gutted all the wiring instead. Just started my coyote project 06 to 17 swap. I have the whole harness front to rear including pcm, fuse box, smart junction box etc..

I already have the control pack that’s why I’m going that route

I was reading somewhere that I can use my stock drop In as long as I change the line from the tank to the rail

If only it was that simple. Anyway, I've updated my webpage with further information that should help others avoid some of the pitfalls of doing a Coyote swap into a 3V S197.

That's why I got the tank too. My next issue is going to be dash fitment from a 17.
