I’m not a huge fan of the eco boost but there is no denying that they make awesome power and torque. This is a really cool and seemingly well done swap. Probably took lots of money, time, and talent to make it happen.
I agree. This swap is freaking awesome. I don’t think they’re terrible engines even tho in my mind the 5.0 coyote is still better in terms of dependability. I wish ford would make a v8 ecoboost with more displacement and start putting them in the super duty line of trucks. The 3.5s seem to tow pretty good so a v8 ought to be a beast.
Whoever designs an exhaust to actually make these engines sound good will make a fortune. Love the truck and engine but like most hate the sound they produce.
I agree. I think that’s the biggest issue I have…..no matter what you do to it, no matter what vehicle it’s in, it’s always going to sound like an industrial stump grinder.

Do you often tell people they should like what you like instead of what they like? Or is this just something you do on the internet? I'm not saying the truck sounds awesome but clearly the owner has money. If he didn't like it I'm sure he'd change it.
Honestly I had no idea what a ecoboost sounded like but If that is what it's supposed to sound like then that gotta be one of the ugliest sounding motors ever built... it sounded like shit...
@@OkGreat- it's the exhaust manifolds. Granted, it's never going to be deep sounding but no one makes equal length turbo manifolds. Ford tried to fix it on the Raptor and it's a little bit deeper but still bad.
The 2.7 is one of my favorites. 375 HP and 450 torque by 3k with that little engine is completely and entirely possible and easy Bragging rights will be the best part of the swap like that after you clean the clocks of 85% of vehicles on the road.
Dude my dad had an f150 just like that. Inline 6 and a 5 speed when I was a kid. Of course that feels like way back before dirt was invented, but I learned how to heal toe in that truck I'd love to see it like this
That's exactly what I drive now 94 f150 with the 300 6cyl an a 5spd 2wd .its got plenty of torque but could use some more horsepower and definitely need more gear in the axle. Mine has the 2.79 unfortunately I'm looking to swap it to the 3.27 or 3.31 rear gear..
@@MrTheHillfolk yea with turbos from old 7.3 powerstroke diesel motors...and yes there small there not exactly big turbos..there not 70 mm or 85 mm turbos there maybe 58 to 60mm at the most doesn't take much only 7 or 8 psi to get power out of the 300
I like it’s sound. It sounds way different than you would expect. I’m used to trucks just being overly loud here. XD this one has a nice purr at idle and is loud when it needs to be it’s nice.
I miss my ecoboost, I had the exhaust run as a 4" straight pipe after the cats and routed the blow-off valves to vent under the hood. It never sounded amazing but it sounded plenty angry when you got on it! Threw a rod this February and it will be $10,000 to replace the motor, I can't wait to get the old girl running again.
They kind of missed the mark by coming out with EcoBoost in a 6 cylinder instead of an 8. A 2.8L twin turbo v8 would do what a twin turbo 2.8L v6 would do, but not sound dumb. (Price and packaging, v8 loses, decision made.) Yes, I drive a 4 cyl. N/A hatchback and complain on the internet.
That's way too small displacement for a V8, that's why the manufacturers choose stupid V6s. Their priority after reaching power goals is packaging and price, and V6 is just a decent compromise on everything. Your comment cracked me up, I drive a 4cyl too. I actually love 4cyls

I love it. On many occasions I've considered exactly this swap on my 94. If I ever find a donor I may just do it 🤷♂️ those little 3.5s know how to throw down
That’s awesome, I want to do this so bad. I think my uncle has two late 70’s f100’s that I can do this on. I already pulled a 302 out of one to put into a nice 75. Because this build is bad ass, I was shocked at how good it sounds with the pedal down.
I live the next town over from Mars Auto Parts, where I think he said he got the drivetrain from. Seeing their work in action is convincing me to go to them when it comes time to LS swap my postwar Bel Air. Working up the nerve to go see their operation.
I love it dude. I have an 86 I was deciding to swap, ended up going with the most available motor, a 5.3. But a 3.5 ecoboost and ford barra were on the radar
It sounds like a strangled sports car motor. Which it effectively is - the engine also used in the Ford GT, but detuned for torque. How reliable is the Ecoboost - assuming proper maintenance? An owner I met had one in his work truck, he was on his second Ecoboost truck, and he said that they lasted quite a bit better than his former truck, a Chevy with an LS. It just seems counter-intuitive that pushing the hell out of a small engine lasts better than letting a big engine loaf.
I think if you beat the hell out of it at all times, Weight wise, the v8 is better, but the v8 is harder on itself over time just cruising vs any turbo
I have an 2011 SHO with the 3.5 ecoboost in it and it has been a very reliable engine. It has been re-tuned for the last 40k miles - and has seen probably 150 drag strip passes, 12-14 autocross events, and goes on at least two "cruises" a year where I beat on it pretty hard. The only issues to date that I have had (it currently has ~85k miles on it) have been a faulty oil pressure sender (10 minute job, 15 dollar part) and I did injectors on it (the '10-12 model years have a known issue with the stock injectors.) other than that it has never went wrong and I have been quite happy with the car. I figure over ten years of regular abuse that is a more than acceptable reliability. I did the injectors myself (wasn't too hard) and that cost me an afternoon and about ~600 in parts. As far as how it sounds - I have the stock exhaust on it - and removed the rear two mufflers and the car sounds pretty good. Sounds way better than the truck in this video - but lets be real - 90% of anything straight piped sounds like garbage.
@@theangrymarmot8336 Sounds good - although, granted, you're using it as a performance car engine in a performance car, not as a truck engine in a truck. You're hauling about half-a-ton less weight than a truck to start with, not typically pulling a trailer with a small bulldozer or a big ATV that adds another ton or two, and you don't ask any more of it than that it deliver when you put your foot in it. In other words, you're playing to exactly the strength of a smallish turbo engine - short bursts at full-throttle, and allowed to rev - rather than long periods at 3/4 of full-power, and maybe expected to lug like a diesel.
can you tell me how you ran your fuel system? Did you use the Fuel Pump Driver Module? How about a return line? Did you use a Corvette regulator or something different? REally appreciate the help.
I've got so many questions.... I have an 1985 Lariat F150 that needs a new power plant. How did You connect the Transmission up to the Column shifter? or did you?

Geez... when the camera pans to the side pipes it actually sounds almost like a V8... not so much from other angles, but it definitely sounds more aggressive than any other Ecoboost in a truck this side of a Raptor.
This is my problem. I got a 1984 Chevy c20 with a 350 but I have a 1977 International Scout II I’m keeping original. This C20 is my daily. I want to vastly increase efficiency without sacrificing performance either. I’ve played around with 2.7 turbo from the 2019+ trucks, a 2.8 duramax from the 2016+ Colorado/Canyon, even a Buck 3800 from a late 90’s Camaro. But none of them sound good! I care too much about that I guess but still.. I really need to find an alternative. I refuse to give up the trucks and really want to make it efficient and won’t give up trying
@@calebwhite1454 u can push a fairly efficient 300hp from a 4.3 I believe and it’s got the same bore as ur 350 ;) just two less cylinders. Have you looked into them. It’s not too efficient. But it’s efficient enough. Efficiency depends on how you drive it tho tbh. In my Honda Civic if I beat on it, it cuts the fuel economy to almost half its capabilities if I baby it 😂
Nice man! I have a 2017 f150 2.7 ecoboost 6speed 2wd that totaled that I want to swap into a 91 ford 4x4 any way I could contact you with some questions?
So good to see this. I’m so sick of hearing about LS swaps
Lol
Exactly!
The LS is far better
I think it’s nice that they gave this sweet old truck some supplemental oxygen to help it out a little.
That's a little more than "some supplemental oxygen". The only thing remaining from that "sweet old truck" is the shell.

That’s because you just can’t make a V6 sound good when you’re on the throttle. They can sound ok at idle but once you tap the gas it’s over

Camshaft phasers are a blast to change ...
Get your tune from MPT More Power Tuning. What exhaust is this?
V6's just aint it, that was painful to hear. Still cool though.
I like older carburated v6’s particularly 4.3’s cuz they have the same internals as a 5.7 v8
Go listen to a 86-87 grand National v6…
@@jafferm1938 I have...they sound like trash.
This is my problem. I got a 1984 Chevy c20 with a 350 but I have a 1977 International Scout II I’m keeping original. This C20 is my daily. I want to vastly increase efficiency without sacrificing performance either. I’ve played around with 2.7 turbo from the 2019+ trucks, a 2.8 duramax from the 2016+ Colorado/Canyon, even a Buck 3800 from a late 90’s Camaro. But none of them sound good! I care too much about that I guess but still..
I really need to find an alternative. I refuse to give up the trucks and really want to make it efficient and won’t give up trying
@@calebwhite1454 u can push a fairly efficient 300hp from a 4.3 I believe and it’s got the same bore as ur 350 ;) just two less cylinders. Have you looked into them. It’s not too efficient. But it’s efficient enough. Efficiency depends on how you drive it tho tbh. In my Honda Civic if I beat on it, it cuts the fuel economy to almost half its capabilities if I baby it 😂
Fantastic! I want it bad. I have a 15 f150 ecoboost and this setup in pretty much anything would be great
That truck sound great!
Nice man! I have a 2017 f150 2.7 ecoboost 6speed 2wd that totaled that I want to swap into a 91 ford 4x4 any way I could contact you with some questions?
That's the baddest shit I've seen anyone do to the old f150's yet I want that truck💯👍
I love it! Really think Ecoboost swaps are the way of the future
Gonna be battery pack swaps unfortunately mate...as much of a petrol head these car manufacturers are really pushing RC cars on us
Got to love that ford cold start rattle
Not a common swap
I like it👍
I can't stand the sound of those things but that is freaking bad ass!
Sounds incredible 😍!
Sounds like our Transit van at work. It rips!
What kind of mpg does it get been thinking about the swap for a while
