I have a 2007 s197 that I put 15 grand into just upgrades alone just to wake up to it on fire.. it was consolidated and I saved it. It was my first legal car and I have so much attachment to it that this is literally exactly what I’m trying to do. An LS swap can bring her back runnin better then these 4.6 3 valves out here. Thank you for the videos man
Damm bro thanks bring that bitch back better then ever 💪🏽
Ganna follow your way fully thru bro it looks good asf I appreciate this upload a lot
Thanks man 💪🏽
Very nice. I got the 05 gt myself. Ls is maybe the direction for me to go. Thxs bud
Awesome work, badass setup
Thanks brotha 💪🏽
Great Info. Doing my swap now
Thanks and great to here a lot of people getting interested in doing these swaps on the s197 💪🏽
I had an 07 4.0 and now an 06 GT. Honestly, the 06 just feels like a little more power than my previous 07 v6. I want to swap my 4.6 with an LS now instead of a 5.0. Thanks for the video
That’s what it all about I went 12.86 with my little 4.slow and even that was faster then some fbo 3v 😂
Dude thank you so much holy shit
so much room in the engine compartment compared to the original coyote!!
Room for boost 👌🏽
Never had a coyote. Coyote would shit on an ls all day but not for the cost. Ls hands down best bang for the buck.
Can you fix the link for the transmission cross member adapter. Super helpful videos. Thanks for posting
I don’t believe they sell them anymore or odd there out of stock I had check it a few times I’ll try again tho if they don’t jpc makes a crossover with a safety loop for a glide or th350/400 in our cars
I’m working on the same project Wondering how can I cut some weight
There plenty of places to cut weight it just comes down to what u want to loose or could live without I wanted a street car have my dash door panel and center console that’s all I have in the car plus having radio and working heat
DRIVE IT!!!!!!!
Drive shaft nxt week and some tune tweaks and we will 😂
@@Zaysnipes looking forward to it. I'm seriously considering doing this in the coming months. I'm so tired of the Ford trash under the hood... and coyote swaps costing like 10 grand is ridiculous... so you doing this is a major encouragement.
I will probably try to keep my GT500 TR6060 I have in mine though. Probably need to come up with a adaptor plate or something.
Yea coyote king imo but the price is ridiculous for that swap is easy 8-10k for the tr6060 they probably make a swap plate for it tho unless u can get a t56
Wow a chevy powered mustang? I need to a coyote swapped vette now
😂
They cost twice as much minimum to build sounds like a great investment. I have a fully built coyote 525 rwhp all motor and id much rather swap and ls in with a big dick cam. Last Ford ill ever buy as well. Interior is absolutely garbage and basic as fuck. If it weren't for the coyote sound I'd hate my car all the way.
What did you use for headers/manifolds can’t tell also great video
There stock manifold flipped forward with v bands welded on them the hotside came off an Ls swapped foxbody
@@Zaysnipes cool that kinda what I was thinking but was not 100%sure
Yeah the stock manifold flow great and there the cheapest option
@@Zaysnipes definitely cheap virtually free when you buy an engine from the junkyard
Exactly 😂
I have a s197 I'm in the process of ls swapping. Could you give me more information on the trans set up?
I went auto u can run a th350/400 or a powerglide or go a manual route I have a built th400 short tail sfi bell housing deep pan and reverse manual valve body with a trans bracket
What type of ls engine and manual trans can I put on my 08 v6 I’m thinking about doing this one day
Any Ls u want depends on your budget but when it comes to manual it gets expensive t56 is the way for most Ls setups tho
Hi. Would this work the same for a 4.0?
Check out the most recent break down vid but yes for the 4.0 or 4.6 the swap is the same since chassis are exactly the same along with 05-14 there all the same
Oh, what LS is that and what did you pay for the motor?
5.3 and 100$ 😂
U think a ls mustang could be daily driven? In trying to drop a ls in a sn95 mustang trying to push around 450whp
Yes it can easily be the nicer u make it the more streetable it can be like drive a normal mustang
450whel horse power is child's play with a carb style intake I've been talking weekly with Anthony Jones from AJE they offer ls swap kmember a arms to shed weight I'm waiting for him to finish up the power glide trans crossmember I have nitrous427cube lsx going in using aje k frame aje is also designing cross member to replace the s197 3 link suspension with a triangulated 4 link using fox body geometry I'm Ole cripple racer was racing on streets decades before this fake ass street outlaws TV show I refuse to be defeated by this I could sell my dart block 4ls and use for doown payment on 2012 gt but on 400hit of nitrous this lsx should run its low compression 11:1 combo I could procharge later if I planned on dedicated nitrous build it would be13.5:1 compression on race gas with my mild compression I could boost engine and hurt some feelings when my money allows guess part 2 is win enough money to get couple hair dryers I prefer th upward facing throttle body of carb intake adding fuel bentering plenum better than efi forward facing throttle body supplying fuel as air enters cylinder head this method allows for cooler intake charge heat isreduced as gasoline vaporizer if I do decide to boost car later
So what about driveshaft and Trans mount with the 4l60?
U need to make a custom trans mount for that trans and get a custom driveshaft made as-well
Hey what did you do for your steam ports
Use the stock Ls ones it came with and run that coolant/vent hose to the mustang coolant tank
What adapter mounts did you have to buy to mate up with the factory ford motor mounts?
4.6 to Ls swap plates www.ebay.com/itm/401798640239?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=KBewltw-T9u&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=rPipUYRGQvO&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
@@Zaysnipes its saying that link is not available. are those the same plates that fit 99-04?
@MichaelWilliams-sj6lo yeah I’ve been meaning to update a few things from this vid some link have been discontinued but here goes another

@@Zaysnipes you're awesome. I just bought a 08 with a v6 I believe the motor is blown. If so I'm going to swap it with a 5.3. I have a couple I can use and th400. But I'm thinking 4l60e because I want it more streetable.
Just get your hammer out for the tunnel with the 4l trans
do u think a 4l80 or 4l60 would fit an s197?
We have a group on fb check it out plenty of different combo’s the 4L trans are big have to beat the tunnel a lot to fit and custom cross over
facebook.com/groups/694345035065009/?ref=share
@@Zaysnipes cool man thanks
Everyone is like yeah, like the flywheel, the driveshaft safety loop, the oil pan, but where the hell did you get that indestructible light bulb you keep whacking shit with lol. I know, it is an LED but its funny, you use is as a pointer and hit shit
Lmao we bust those things up all the time 🤣 think there from Home Depot
What about power steering? I definitely want to have power steering
U can make your own an lines and run adaptor fitting to the rack to keep power steering
What did u do with the drive shaft?
Custom made 3inch steel with th400 yoke from autozone and factory pinion flange with 1340 u joints
@@Zaysnipes thanks trying to get as much info as possible I am fixing to do this swap.
No prob it’s a pretty straight forward swap considering u can use ford mounts k member and crossmember after that wire it up and good to go
Forget the 4.6 - go LS
I keep trying the link to the trans crossmember you happened to still have the link to it ?
They may not make it anymore I’ve hear this before about that link but u can still get the jpc or Watson trans cross over it your going th350/400 or powerglide I highly (recommend) the jpc since it has a driveshaft safety loop included
@@Zaysnipes thanks man
No problem 💪🏽
Hi how much do you think a shop would charge to install everything in the car?
Depends on labor rates I’d have atleast 5k or more at least with how shops are today cheapest I’ve seen is 100$ and hr so that give u a good amount of shop time
@@Zaysnipes Thanks!
Do I need holley terminator x max for th400 control, or just terminator x?
Just the x a th400 like a th350 or a powerglide are all basically manual transmission with the correct valves body’s and don’t need trans control
@@Zaysnipes Thanks
Once mine blows up I'm going with a 5.3 I'm on a boosted 3v 550whp 510ft lbs of tq
U won’t regret it 👌🏽
What have you done to support that power?
What Compressor for AC?
That’s something Idk I don’t even know if anyones that does this swap keeps ac I’d say u could but a lot of work
Bro, I'm trying to do this but have it idea where to strat.. pls hell
If u have a chassis ready just start making a list figure out what u want to do with the car and a setup u have in mind there plenty of different combos all take different amount of work and skill sets to do but anyone can learn and do this swap very simply if u want more ideas and insight and ideas check out the fb group tons of info and a lot of help m.facebook.com/groups/694345035065009/
same transmission? rear?
Built th400 the rear is the ford 8.8 with 4.10 gear
Are you able to keep ac?
U can keep everything ac power steering everything I only have heat but u can just have to route the exhaust to the back
@@Zaysnipes will the exhaust be in the way of the lines? I’m researching this exact build. I’m wanting to do a manual if it’s that easy… if not I’ll go with a th400.
This was just the video I was looking for. I have to check out your body mods video cause I’m looking at a crashed s197 with some light front end damage basically radiator support and passenger headlight perfect candidate for a tubular front end and ls swap
I would get the tubular front end kit and make it easy and lighter wish I did when I had an accident u can run the exhaust out the back and have no issue with line or anything and you can go manual transmission or really anything u went there a good amount of room just now a lot for let’s say a 4l80/4l60 but Watson racing I believe sell the t56 swap crossover for a manual setup
do you have AC ?
Not on this setup u could if u wanted there enough room for it
wheres your bell housing
It came with the trans when I bought it
A total waste lmfao. Just drop a 5.0 coyote (if it’s a 3.7. They’re faster anyway
The waste was your comment 🤣 if u didn’t know I already have one actually on my second so I have no reason for another coyote car 😂
An engine is just an engine what makes a fast car is a fast driver. Power alone does not make a fast car. Your comment is ignorant
Let's see, 8-10k for a stock coyote swap or $4-5k for a ls swap and with the other $4-5k you'd spend for the coyote swap you could use for upgrades, turbo, or whatever and make way more power.
You're just a product of your father's waste 🤷♂️
My 5.0 Coyote dropped a rod @85k miles ,, my old 5.3 Silverado has 225k on it - FJB & F Ford Motors
Not everybody can afford a sbf.
