So after a long swap and junkyard engine build along with a 6 month hiatus because of just disgust she is back running, tuned and making power!!
Started out as a open track daily driver 3v and instead of spending money for bolt ons and being down 100hp to start with the 3v as well as knowing I would have to do some minor engine work to the 3v I decided to go with a coyote swap as the work was really the same, the cost of exhaust and such was the same.
I knew I would be doing bolt ons so the intake and headers were a no brainer to install as it was going in.
Everything was bought second hand from Facebook market place with almost all parts locally picked up. There is a really great guy here that specializes in parting out coyotes so I was able to get a few heavier items from him.
The headers were new and never installed but the guy left them out in the weather for a year and the coating was rusted so I blasted them and then ceramic coated them myself. Those and the 3" X-pipe were $300.00
I scored a set of Boss 302 Recaro's from him as well and let me tell you if you don't have a set and spend any time on the track GET THEM.
So the basics: Junk yard F150 Gen2 rebuild with GT350 oil pan and pump with billet gears, PBH conversion harness and AC bracket, Long tube headers, 2018 intake with Ford racing 90mm TB, JLT 110MM cold air.
Kept the TR3650 because it was almost new and already in the car.
I sourced the electric rack locally and drilled the K member for the conversion so it plugged into the harness so there was no need for a pulley system and weird AC setup.
Fuel system requiring a return style I used a Corvette inline fuel filter that literally plugged in and then ran a return line back to the hat and a 380LPH replacement fuel pump, stock injectors and a 93pump tune.
THE CAR:
The RESULTS:
OPEN WIDE:
Don't Judge a book:
Take a deep breath:
Keeping it Stiff:
Coated X-pipe with Resonators and she is still too loud:
