6.2 swap in an 08 gt

[Bingo]

They have not as of yet but I believe that they will, these engines have a lot of extra capacity built into them. Ford built a 460 cubic inch off road race motor with a 6.2 block!

That would be a badass option for n/a applications...assuming it fits without too much hassle.

Badass now just keep us updated and there will be no problems...



Lol

Notice the harmonic balancer in reference to the core support! What's up with that?

The harmonic balancer is sitting on the core support with the motor nearly touching the firewall. It's gonna require a tubular support for sure.

I have a 2011 mustang dash, dash harness and chassis harness. Body plug pin out on pcm are VERY similar between '11 f-150 and.'11 mustang. Done a lot of homework and got my fingers crossed.

This is awesome man. I can't wait what this does with some bolt ons and a tune. Good luck!

You can fab up some brackets to hold the radiator in place and delete that all together, problem solved.

Alright, the 5.4 is coming out...

Now I need to track one of these badboys down...

This is a 2V correct?

 

[Mike K]

Yup

 

[Kuro!]

Hm... You would probably need to track down the ECU also then..

I know one of the biggest issues during and still with my swap was the driver side header clearing the steering shaft, and by the looks of it this motor is MUCH wider, but i'm excited to see how this turns out. GOOD LUCK MAN! This is one badass swap if you decide to go through with it.

im in

 

[RetroGT2006]

I love this idea, subscribed! I hope it fits w/o major modification. Build that thing and boy will that car move out!

 

[captainN8]

That is gonna be awesome!

 

[TorchedGT]

shame these engines arent at least 3vs but im not real sure on the specs of these heads... the past 2v heads were boat anchors lol. my vorteched 02 2v gt only put down 50rwhp more then my n/a 08 3v... looking forward to the payoff drive to this surgery

 

[v8venomgt]

interesting

 

[johnnyv8]

wow, nice. Sorry for the newb question but what did this motor come out of? or was it just built? I know the new raptor svt has a 6.2L

 

[TorchedGT]

f250 base motor is this engine also....

 

[03Glock]

Y hello there...

Not trying to shake things up to much, BUT!!! I have been working on a twin screw blower intake manifold for several months which is nearly finished. With the accessory drive 5" farther forward, there is a problem with the slope of the hood and the blower pulley wanting to occupy the same space.
