My 4.6L to GT500 5.4L swap

[Boozshey]

If this isn't tech sorry, didn't know where else to put it.

So after going through the 2 motors in less than 3 months I decided I would go back to stock. Well sort of...

Tomorrow we will be swapping the harness and doing all the electrical, I will also be swapping in the steering wheel, leather wrapped dash, leather center console, info mirror, and cluster.

THERE ARE NO PARTS FROM THE GT500 FOR SALE!!!

Here is the results:

5.4?!?!?!?!

That is stock too right... haha

It's about time you put up some pics Bruce. Looks good. Does the GT500 motor just sit on the stock GT k-member? Why not go with tubular k-member and some headers while the motor is out?

 

[Boozshey]

Headers aren't really worth it for me. We just dropped the K-member from the GT500 with everything still attached and slid it under my car and bolted it back up.

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Oh ok. Are you keeping everything stock? Or are you adding pullies and a tune?

I will do the evo stage 3 kit when I get home from training in Nov.

Don't know if it was or not. I did like the looks, but I never got a chance to use it since both motors gave out before we could really get it running right.

That's awesome!

 

[EagleStroker]

So.... what about the big hole in your hood?

 

[Boozshey]

Got a scoop to cover it.

 

[EagleStroker]

Nice, time for "I"m anal about wires, take two." Doing anything fancy this go around?

 

[Boozshey]

Man, I will tell you what, I do hate them, but looking at the 5.4, a lot of them are already hidden well. I might just cover the loom with braided sleeving, but I am not so hard-up on it this time. The biggest motivation last time was to balance out the engine bay since I had the big empty space where the CAI use to be. By relocating the PCM and stuff it evened thing out. But now... Hmmm... Really got look into it. I have some ideas though.

 

[HOLYWD]

So I went back to stock!!! Kind of?!?! Check it out...

Awesome man !
