Love it. Rode to high school almost everyday in three different Pintos with my buddy. Because of that, they will always hold a special place in my heart.
I had this identical swap, from a T-bird turbo 4cyl into a fox body.... the biggest draw back is the top Mount intercooler that of course is not getting air flow, and gets heat contamination from the exhaust. I swapped it out for a larger front mount intercooler from a Japanese car, and custome built the new piping, added a catch can, an intake manifold blow out valve, methanol injection and the boost turned up to 21 psi.... on 94 octain, stock internals and turbo, but it ran extremely well. The cooler boost with the front mount intercooler, and the meth' injection added almost 80 more horsepower from stock, you can also use 5.0 v8 injectors and the throttle body to help it to run richer, and prevent blown head gaskets. ... I love these engines, so much potential
Great lesson for all youtube creators! This video is the perfect example of why you never use a high school art student do your video! What could have been great ends up being annoying pile of crap.
Great idea good choice of engine I had a stock 1971 with a 2.0 my best quarter mile time was 16.89 that was in 1975 I kinda miss that car there are so many ways to make a four banger go fast now I don't miss the parts breaking I went through transmissions and rear ends but it was fun good luck with yours.
hey great car back in the day i had a 71 pinto i swapped a v8 into that car, 289 with wrap around headers mustang 2 bellhouseing car was fast. but i traded it in for a 69 fire bird. which i have videos of the car( fire bird with tunnel ram) its all Pontiac, but i am still a pinto lover at heart brings back the memories, Subbed. i live here in Washington too...Tim
This is my dream, to swap a Thunderbird motor into my ranger, I just have no idea where to start. Bore out the stock block and beef up the internals? Or swap in the entire motor? Not to mention wiring, fuel, exhaust, maybe I'm just overthinking it and getting overwhelmed.
Did you keep the stock pinto 4 speed? I'm in the process of making a 77 wagon 2.3 powered fairly stock 84 tc engine, trying to figure out what fits and what doesn't case on point -stock bellhousing clutch 4 speed- turbo and manifold -oil pan
that is amazing how you upgraded the turbo in size,what are you boosting at on psi I'd like to know,have you done a Dyno on the hp please let me,I'd like to do the same,I use to have a Pinto but got rid of it,didn't think it was possible to do what you did on that car thanks for the video.
THATS AWSOME? I DID A MUSTANG 2 ENGINE TRANS SWAP IN MY 72 PINTO WHEN I WAS 16 BACK IN 1982 GREAT JOB BUT THE BACK GROUND MUSIC SUCKS!! I CAN HEAR THE CAR AND ANY CONVERSATION!!! MUTE THAT MUSIC BRO BUT YOU ARE VERY MECHANICALLY INCLINED HAVE FUN IM 54
Tienes un gran canal, felicidades. Ya vi tu video completito y me gusto mucho, espero que me visites y nos mantengamos en contacto🤗😉💲🚙Gracias por todo y sigue subiendo videos🙏🏻🤗😉💲💲💲🚙
THE MUSTANG 2 WAS A 302 WITH AUTOMATIC EVERYTHING THE SHIFTER THE DRIVE LINE ALL FIT PERFECT THE STOCK REAR 4 LUG WAS USED AND I TURNED THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS TO MAKE THE PIPES COME TO THE FRONT THAN UNDER THE FRONT CROSS MEMBER BUT THAT WAS TEMPORARY
Must of had a manual trans. The stall wouldn't of been right on a C4 which i believe came in your year. They started putting in C3's later. I have a 1977 Turbo. your air intake would mount better going through the passenger fender well.
I have a friend that has a Mustang with a 2.3 in it Turbo all Factory stuff and it's like 375 horsepower I think he mentioned it might have gone 12 80s
How COOL, A POS becomes a hot mad runner for the quarter. Wait till I put the wife in front of this as she had to, I say, HAD to drive one just like this ,same color etc. Shes gonna say WOW. I might add, as a daily driver to share with the brother.
Damn, what the hell is this; a music video or a video about and engine swap. Way too much BS going to enjoy the damned thing. Get rid of the music and stop with all the "cool" video effects. Sheesh.
Hot tip: leave your graphics up long enough to read it and stop with the dancing graphics!!!
Such a shame you covered the sounds of the car with crap music other wise would have been a great video
It too bad you don't a massive peacock!
Whats with the hate man?
Get a life .....
get rid of that damn music.... Rather hear you and the car
can't read shit!
I enjoy the build but the music really takes away from it so i watched it with sound off
Love it.
Rode to high school almost everyday in three different Pintos with my buddy.

I've eaten doughnuts bigger than the oem turbo. Love the car. Love effort. Love the result. But the video..... gave me a headache.
Had to mute. Damn that crap music

I came here to hear a turbo Pinto. If I want music I'll look it up.

I've always thought about this but I know when I finally found a solid pinto i'd have to go 5.0 t5.
Great Pinto great motor swap, back in the day I had a T Bird with that motor loved it gave a few 5.0 s a surprise 😎

Looks like your having a blast with it! That's what it is all about.
I had to give up watching this
Good job on that fast little pony, cameraman could lay off the tequila worms though.
Nice build. Looks like you're making enough power , just get the suspension dialed in and you'll be all set.

I just got mine I'm planning to do a 350 swap for now then save up to get a crate 302 I love your build man

Wait a minute Alpha ... Maybe he was making Borscht in his Pinto.
You never know.
@@Wildstar40
Lol, if you're rushin', the Pinto's a poor choice of cars.
Agree with others, Loose the stupid noise so we can hear the car
I have a '79 wagon, and an '88 turbo coupe waiting to give up its heart. Any suggestions or tips on the swap? Any issues you ran into?
hit us up on facebook. quarter mile club
I am doing up a car exactly like this on my channel right now. I didnt cut off the stud. It didnt seem to be rubbing... Hopefully no problems!
Nice build!!👍
Spokane here.
Doing the same swap on a 95 Kia Sportage.
Be well.
my 88 franger .2.3 had a roller cam, first year for it I think
I really need to get mine tuned. I have a 75 with boport Cam ported head , five-speed, 8 inch rear end megasquirt computer Kama Volvo intercooler :-)

Is this an interference engine?? Will the engine breakdown completely if the timing belt breaks
Yep
@@thereluctantgearhead4544 No, the 2.3L Ford is not an interference engine
@@stevebates5973 I just built one, turn the rotating assembly over with the belt off and the pistons will contact the valves. Stock 1997 model.
@@stevebates5973 don't know about the earlier ones.
Doesn't sound like my 2.3L in my 1983 Mercury Capri. Lol
Terry Carter I had an 80 , put 400hp 302 in it and had a blast .
Dude ? Shit can the music and video FX.
Bas Ass! Very Nice.
How COOL, A POS becomes a hot mad runner for the quarter. Wait till I put the wife in front of this as she had to, I say, HAD to drive one just like this ,same color etc. Shes gonna say WOW.
I might add, as a daily driver to share with the brother.
WA state, represent!
Im kinda sorry that I haven't been very good at getting back to the comments.... just find us on facebook. Easiest way. Quarter mile club
This is the way it's done! But a fox body 2.3 beats you? He's at least 800lbs heavier!
Why would you put captions in if you can't read them..and the music sux..you probably think it's cool...not impressed..
Damn, what the hell is this; a music video or a video about and engine swap. Way too much BS going to enjoy the damned thing. Get rid of the music and stop with all the "cool" video effects. Sheesh.
Look us up on Facebook @ quarter mile club
Bs
Awful music terrible graphics can’t follow what your trying to say
Music 👎
I can't understand why car "guys" put cool car projects on youtube backed by "gay" music?
