I have some guy on my snapchat that said * a true mustang enthusiast wouldnt choose that bodystyle, they're very ugly* I had some choice words with him
VQSeries yeah the new mustangs do kind of look like a new edge. Especially how they did the front headlights. But I still like the original New Edge better then anyother mustang.
I love my 2017 5.0 but I do miss my 03 cobra....both fast cars but the 5.0 is smooth and deceivingly quick, the cobra was just violent....instant torque, pulled hard in any gear. I compare them to a trained fighter vs a streetfighter. The smoothness of the newer cars vs the brute force of the older cars. I think the 03 cobra is the best car ford has ever made, with the new gt350s being a close second
Awesome video I love the SN95 body style from 94 to 98 especially the Cobra set up as the bumpers are different. That is a beautiful beast of a car and with that Coyote swapped in that is a car Ford should remake.
Nice ride can't go wrong with a coyote my has a 95 Rio red cobra bone stock mint condition it's been in the family since 96 anyways good job and God bless 🙌
@@deandalapanda Do your research before you correct somebody. 94 95 Came factory with those tail lights. I have a 94 and a 95. Also the last 2 years for the push rod 5.0. Sooooooo Therefore those are 5.0 taillights🤣🤣🤣🤣 smh
I agree 100% about the S550 not having that muscle car feel. I was looking into them a bit, but that is the reason I just decided to keep my supercharged Mach 1 instead.
This kid has a channel and he got everything given to him mommy and daddy got him his car he wanted and continue to provide for him I bet makes it seem he worked for it I'm glad I worked for what I got.
I thought about swapping the new 5.0 in mine. Some of the parts will swap over. But I love my 4v 4.6 just can't part with it. Awesome vid man keep it up!
Your car will be worth more one day for the fact that is has the original engine. In 10 years, a coyote will be a dated engine and the car won’t be worth near as much
I didn't realize you were in the VA area, personally I'm in Sterling close to the car meet at Dulles Landing (Dunkin Donuts on Saturdays). Watched one of your videos LONG ago with a neighbor's reaction to your Cobra. Watched the Q&A with you and your wife (and son) and you said to blow up the comments with questions. 1. Papa Johns, Pizza Hut or Dominos? 2. Chick Fil A milk shakes or Dairy Queen? 3. Hobbies outside of vehicles? Being a father I assume you have to have some hobbies or relaxing activities with your son and wife. 4. If you could pick up and travel to another city, country, etc for a week or two, where and why? Money not an option, just a general "what if" question. 5. What is Hidden Valley Ranch really hiding from us? 6. Frozen yogurt or Ice Cream? 7. NASCAR, Formula 1, or NHRA? 8. Favorite movie and/or TV genre? That is if you regularly watch TV/movies 9. Favorite sports teams? NHL, NFL, NBA, MLB etc. once more assuming you watch sports I'm most interested in question 5 as I can't find an answer. Nice videos man, keep up the good work on your channel and build.
I have an 01 with no engine or seats but honestly I was debating on buying seats and a 4.6 engine from the year cobra But now i think a coyote swap will be in my list now
Don't do it! For the cash you would spend on the swap, you could make a killer motor out of your teksid DOHC stocker. The SN95 Cobras are getting hard to find.
Great video and a beautiful car. In my perfect dream world, the new Mustang dimensions and weight should be closer to the SN95 Cobra design, hovering around 3300-ish pounds and 180" long. Since 2005, the Mustangs have just started getting bigger and heavier, losing a lot of the Mustangs character in the process.
Those old SN95 Mustangs are now starting to become collectable for people who want to build seriously fast 1/4 mile cars. Why? Because they're light and take mods well and you can get the basic car for a song.
Love all Mustangs 03/04 Cobra just because of the Terminator and the respect it's made. But the SN-95 looks badass the way it stands dropped a lil in the front have the back raised
I have a 03 Mustang GT/Cobra Project and I am considering a 2015+ 5.0L Coyote engine swap or a 13/14 Shelby GT500 S/C 5.8L engine along with Fords New 6R80 Auto 6-sp trans with a custom paddle shift! Also I swapping out the SRA for a IRS and I am considering swapping out my 03 Interior for either the 13/14 Shelby GT500 complete interior with the Recaro seats or the 2015+ Mustang GT complete Interior with the Recaro seats or the power/heat/cool seats! Well we'll see!...God Bless!
Marquice Rowan I have a '97 and I kinda want to do the same. I'm planning on doing the head swap w the Terminator heads, the Mach 1 intake, different cams, etc, when the motor needs a rebuild. I kind of want to leave it naturally aspirated too.
I presume you have a 4V 4.6 Cobra then? The 96-early 2001 Cobras have aluminum blocks cast in Italy by Teksid. That block will hold up to 1200RWHP. The sky is the limit on building that engine. Of all the Cobra cars, the SN95 cars IMO are the ones to keep the original engine with and build it up. Even just sticking a Kenne Bell blower on the stock heads etc will make it into a monster, and would be a lot less $ too. Honestly a big chunk of the swap $ comes from switching to a T56(if you so choose) and getting a clutch/flywheel etc to hold the power. I own an Opal Frost 94 GT, and have been thinking about this swap. However, on my car with the old 5.0, I would require a new K member, and basically entire new drivetrain as my old T5 would cry and then explode the first time I punched the gas with a 400HP Coyote on it. So my future drivetrain is still up in the air because I am looking at more like $12K to do it right. At that point, I could probably swap a stroked 351W(408) into it for less money because I could keep the front end stock on the car. Honestly, the people looking to swap Coyotes in should be the 96-2004 GT cars where it is all win to do so for the $. Especially the anemic 96-98 GT's. You know really if you are thinking of spending the money on a swap, you could probably keep your Cobra stock and pick up a clean 97 GT for like 2500 bucks and swap that instead. IMO, I just can't wrap my head around removing such a unique engine as the Teksid Cobra motors are out of a limited production car.
Davenhla I see what you mean. Thanks for the info. Yeah I have a '97 Cobra with 23k original miles. Was thinking about upgrading the transmission in a rebuild, because I think the syncros are bad. It grinds when you try and shift too fast when cold. Some people are saying that the syncros are problematic in the '97's and that they will just go bad again, so on some level I'm contemplating just sticking a bad ass TKO in it. Not looking to do anything too crazy horsepower-wise. Would like to get it to at least 400 though naturally aspirated. I'm never planning on getting rid of it, so just trying to make some long-term plans for it. I've been searching TH-cam for several months trying to find the exhaust combo I like best. In terms of sound, the sweet spot for me is 1 3/4 long tube headers, high flow cats, off road H pipe, and some Flowmaster 40 originals. Not the best performing combo, but holy shit that sound is orgasmic 😍
TKO600 is stout, although the TKO's are a little notchy when you shift, but they can handle some hard power shifts with no problems. The new T56 Magnum shifts like butter, like the old T5's even, but cheapest one I found (new) was a little over $3k without any of the stuff needed for a swap, whereas a brand new TKO is like $2200. If you could find like a 03/04 Cobra T56 used on craigslist or something, I have seen them as low as $1300 there, but they sell really fast. That exaust set up with the flowmasters is solid, those 4V Cobra motors sound pretty wicked through Flowmasters. My old 5.0 I set up with a stainless Bassani offroad X pipe(stock manifolds for now) into a new old stock Borla stainless dual cat back. The Borla system I bought was designed when my 94 was new, and they don't make it anymore. It is not super loud, but it also isn't poppy at all, just pure old school mellow muscle. When I put the X pipe onto it too, it was like magic, I get this really angry sounding V8 roar, but it is muted just enough all the obnoxious "pop" is muffled out so it is just pure heaven. Exaust and gears should always be the first mods to those 90's Mustangs, best/$$ you can do, and most fun/$$ too. Man I love these older Mustangs, so much customization available for them.
Davenhla good to know about those transmissions, I'll have to keep an eye on those. Realistically if I could just get it to shift like my '08 Scion tC, then I would be pretty happy. I can really go through the gears fast on that car. Not so much on the Cobra. I've never power shifted. Am I missin out? Lol. Yeah at first I didn't like the X pipe sound, but since then I've heard some really nasty sounding ones and its definitely nice in its own way. I think that hollow, gurgling sound made a big imprint on my childhood or something, I think it sounds cooler than a Ferrari. Gears, yessir that's what I've heard. Was planning on going with the 3.73's, people seem to debate the shit out of that one, but it sounds like that's the sweet spot.
10 to 15k is the going rate, even cheaper if you get the motor used like an f150 engine. The hardest part is the wiring and you only have to use a KMember if you have a fox body, on 94-current mustangs its a bolt on since those came with 4.6L engines from the factory(coyotes have the same bolt pattern). K members do make everything easier and are cheap around 400dlls.
I totally agree with getting an aftermarket K-member. The SN95s can use the factory K-member, but you would have to make changes to the oil pan, engine mounts, and depending on the headers, some won't even fit. MM and UPR are the most common.
Morbid SVT COBRA Haha I feel you! I sold my 03 two months ago and I absolutely miss the beast. Weekend cruising is not fun without the roars and burnouts xD
Dam that sux,when i crashed my 92 notch i had for 10 years i was without a stang for 1 1/2 years. Havent been stangless since 2013 now. Why did u sell her if u dont mine me asking.
Morbid SVT COBRA I had 3 cars and 2 of them had to go for financial reasons obviously (I'm a student, and insurance companies show no mercy). The most practical car stayed :( But I plan on getting another one (a 2015) when the new 2018 comes and prices drop. So hopefully within the next two years. Or a new edge and coyote swap haha!
The coyotes are such huge motors no room in the engine bay that's why I'm doing a 363 fully built dart short block trick flow heads Holley EFI lots of boost lol
381 WHEEL horsepower seems like more than enough. The best decision a Mustang owner can make is not listen to other mustang guys advice on areas of power and noise. Any more power for this stang would be vastly over compensating.
This question may have already been asked but I failed to find it in the comments...how much did the entire swap cost you and did the shop do everything? I have a 98 gt with a seriously anemic 4.6 but I don't want to fork out the money for a newer mustang.
I would like to swap a ford engine in my 69 mustang fastback.. I am looking into reliable mustang engines with stick shift.. any recomendation/suggestions?
only I don't like about the new 5.0 is the sound....my 4.6 3v just sounds soooo much better....running slp axle backs and high flow cats...the sound is amazing!!!! that's why I'll never do a swap...I rather just procharger my 4.6 and smoke the new 5.0 ....500hp at wheels is enough power for me.
If you are good mechanically, minus the labor you can do all of it in 15k. I just explained to someone that swapping the engine has other tangibles, like new exhaust, new intake, whether you want power-steering and AC, etc. If you're really serious, call Power By The Hour to get all of what you need, and they can even provide you with guidance on what you'll need. I wish I called them first; could've saved me a bunch of dough.
I love my 04 GT, planning a coyote swap myself. Is there a fix for the cluster so that it's useable? Or any aftermarket replacements? I almost thought it was swaped into a Termi Cobra, cause that one is VERY capable.
Ok so forget the cost of the body but any idea the swap would be? I got two mustangs both have good bodies but my 97 has 209 and trans is gone anyway but I only have 10 I might be able to get 12k all in. Think I could get it done?
With the added transmission add another 3.5k just for parts. There are also other tangibles that people don't think of, like exhaust, power-steering, booster brakes (which your 97 should be compatible with). It all adds up. If you're doing it all yourself it can be done for 15k in parts.
Hey man does your gauges work properly with that motor? I'm coyote swapping my 95 Cobra as well and I'm just worried about the gauges working normally lol
It can be done, but it will be a headache, because the Ford Performance Control Pack is not plug/play with our gauges at all (94-95). A lot of re-wiring would have to be done, so I just went digital with AIM's MXS Strada dash, which hooks directly with the pack's CAN bus.
Reypadd damn that sounds like a lot of work but cool. I might just do what you did. Does that work properly and accurately? And how much did it cost if you mind me asking
It works great. Very accurate, since it's reading straight from the PCM and displaying it digitally; no lag. It's probably overkill, but it has a lot more it can read and display. I just have mine display the speed, tach, coolant temp., gas, and mileage. It even has an optional GPS "track" capability (where you can download a road course and track your performance). It is a little pricey though, about $1k.
True. F150 doesn't have a forged crank and has less aggressive cams. Lower compression too. But, if you plan on rebuilding one, finding one for cheap might be worth it. They seem to sell for much less than Mustang versions.
If you're on a budget you may not have a choice, unless you find a wrecked 11-14 Mustang. The new ones for sale now are only gen-2 Coyotes that are now in the S550s, and it's $7,000. Here's a list of differences according to LMR: lmr.com/products/what-makes-a-coyote-f150-engine-different
Do some research, you can swap the cams and a few electronic bits and make them almost identical, to the tune of within 5RWHP identical. Last I looked, the exaust cam(the one that you need to do) was sub $100. If you can get a low mile F150 Coyote for 1/4 the price of a new Ford crate one, that leave a whole lot of money to use for the rest of the project. I almost pulled the trigger on one my local salvage yard had, $1300 for a 2012 5.0 with 33k miles on it, but I am too strapped for cash for my house remodel right now to move on it. You can do a lot to a motor if you have a price diff. of like $5k.
This body style really don’t see anymore 👍🏻💨love it
Agree
My fav
Love the sn95 for that very reason. Head turner
I have some guy on my snapchat that said * a true mustang enthusiast wouldnt choose that bodystyle, they're very ugly* I had some choice words with him
Defently man I love the sn95 my favorite that and that hatchback 5.0s
Thanks again for the feature video, JD! Had a blast that day.
Reypadd no problem anytime and can't wait to do this again.
I wish they would redesign the New Edge GT's. I always loved the way they looked.
BlueLineRipper that would be so awesome
Hope I don't get stoned for this, but that's kinda how I see the latest Mustang generation now. Still prefer New Edge though.
They do every year
VQSeries yeah the new mustangs do kind of look like a new edge. Especially how they did the front headlights. But I still like the original New Edge better then anyother mustang.
Mike Rivera they need to make another cobra 👌
I love my 2017 5.0 but I do miss my 03 cobra....both fast cars but the 5.0 is smooth and deceivingly quick, the cobra was just violent....instant torque, pulled hard in any gear. I compare them to a trained fighter vs a streetfighter. The smoothness of the newer cars vs the brute force of the older cars. I think the 03 cobra is the best car ford has ever made, with the new gt350s being a close second
Awesome video I love the SN95 body style from 94 to 98 especially the Cobra set up as the bumpers are different. That is a beautiful beast of a car and with that Coyote swapped in that is a car Ford should remake.
HISRT8 i had 2 great cars had 2 fox bodys great cars i have a 06 4.0 v6 but am seriously considering geting a new edge gt and building it
Sn95 from 96 to98 have the 4.6. Not new edge. The new edge is 99 to 04. Wich still have the 4.6 but are npi motors. Little more power but notuch
The SN95 still has a special place in my heart
The way JD smiles when the driver punches the gas....like a little boy in a toy store. I know that feeling all too well. I miss my SN95 Cobra.
Nice ride can't go wrong with a coyote my has a 95 Rio red cobra bone stock mint condition it's been in the family since 96 anyways good job and God bless 🙌
I absolutely love the fact that he kept the horizontal 5.0 taillights 😍😍😍😎
Those arent 5.0 taillights... just the 94 year tail lights... 95 and up they changed.
@@deandalapanda Do your research before you correct somebody. 94 95 Came factory with those tail lights. I have a 94 and a 95. Also the last 2 years for the push rod 5.0. Sooooooo Therefore those are 5.0 taillights🤣🤣🤣🤣 smh
@@deandalapanda Matter of fact the only 2 years with horizontal taillights 94 and 95🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those tail lights are so cool never change them
I agree 100% about the S550 not having that muscle car feel. I was looking into them a bit, but that is the reason I just decided to keep my supercharged Mach 1 instead.
kingcrimson234 Good choice ive had both and the mach is just a meaner car in every sense
Did you have to ditch the hood and shaker intake?
Yep, they feel like high-end European sports cars, ready for the Autobahn or something. Don't feel like Mustangs at all.
Still one of my favorite videos of yours! Love this car!
awesome...my ‘94GT has been sitting for over 10yrs now as well, good stuff.
i really liked this episode. I love that sn95 man!
This kid has a channel and he got everything given to him mommy and daddy got him his car he wanted and continue to provide for him I bet makes it seem he worked for it I'm glad I worked for what I got.
New Edge was 99-04
PGTMR2
Fucking thank you
Yup. Not a new edge.
A New Edge Mustang is a refreshed SN95.
Lord have mercy that's a bad ass car. I love the swap. Finest mustang to me.
I thought about swapping the new 5.0 in mine. Some of the parts will swap over. But I love my 4v 4.6 just can't part with it.
Awesome vid man keep it up!
If you decide to do it, your 97 will be more compatible with the Control Pack than my 94, which means lesser $ spent.
Justin Holmes what is it about the 4.6 specifically that you like, as opposed to the 5.0?
Yfz450r lmao hahahaha
Your car will be worth more one day for the fact that is has the original engine. In 10 years, a coyote will be a dated engine and the car won’t be worth near as much
Agree hundred percent on your s550 comments, neighbor has 15 roush S2 and although a cool car no muscle car feel. Cool video!
I didn't realize you were in the VA area, personally I'm in Sterling close to the car meet at Dulles Landing (Dunkin Donuts on Saturdays). Watched one of your videos LONG ago with a neighbor's reaction to your Cobra. Watched the Q&A with you and your wife (and son) and you said to blow up the comments with questions.
1. Papa Johns, Pizza Hut or Dominos?
2. Chick Fil A milk shakes or Dairy Queen?
3. Hobbies outside of vehicles? Being a father I assume you have to have some hobbies or relaxing activities with your son and wife.
4. If you could pick up and travel to another city, country, etc for a week or two, where and why? Money not an option, just a general "what if" question.
5. What is Hidden Valley Ranch really hiding from us?
6. Frozen yogurt or Ice Cream?
7. NASCAR, Formula 1, or NHRA?
8. Favorite movie and/or TV genre? That is if you regularly watch TV/movies
9. Favorite sports teams? NHL, NFL, NBA, MLB etc. once more assuming you watch sports
I'm most interested in question 5 as I can't find an answer.
Nice videos man, keep up the good work on your channel and build.
Great review! love the intro to this video man
ceo thanks
Ahhh… This is not a "New Edge" Mustang…
It's awesome but the New Edge is 1999-2004 :)
I have an 01 with no engine or seats but honestly
I was debating on buying seats and a 4.6 engine from the year cobra
But now i think a coyote swap will be in my list now
"Yeah its still got a 5.0. Wana do a 40 roll?"
All this video does is make me want to coyote swap my 98 cobra lol
Update: I bought a terminator...
Tyler Tumolo Do it
Call JPC Racing. :)
Tyler Tumolo no man i rather a real cobra engine
Don't do it
Don't do it! For the cash you would spend on the swap, you could make a killer motor out of your teksid DOHC stocker. The SN95 Cobras are getting hard to find.
Really enjoying the recent videos man. I've been debating coyote swapping my 02 GT as opposed to just buying an 11-14 GT.
Me too
Wish I had coyote swap. Really cool car!
Great video and a beautiful car. In my perfect dream world, the new Mustang dimensions and weight should be closer to the SN95 Cobra design, hovering around 3300-ish pounds and 180" long.

T56 bolted up to a coyote 5.0 can't believe you missed that!!!
I forgot to mention it also has 3.73 rear.
Reypadd so a t56 will bolt up to a 5.0 ?
bryan70546 yessir
bryan70546 same bolt housing as the 4.6
niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Super nice car. Love the coyote swap.
I have a 03 Mustang GT/Cobra Project and I am considering a 2015+ 5.0L Coyote engine swap or a 13/14 Shelby GT500 S/C 5.8L engine along with Fords New 6R80 Auto 6-sp trans with a custom paddle shift!

I've had thoughts of doing this with my 98 but I rather keep it true to what it is and build it up still very nice swap though

94/95 Mustang GT/Cobra had old 5.0's. They require a K member to swap no matter what. 96-up the factory one is good to go.
Sick yote and great video jd
blown9646 thanks
What a beautiful built 👌🏻
Subbed,i love me coyote swaps. I maybe might do one on my 96 Cobra,someday.
Morbid SVT COBRA
My stang brother I see you on American Muscle channel, Mustanglifestyle, and I think DBP lol!
Yes,if it has a Mustang or a Cobra on on it,lol. I bleed the stang for life.
Morbid SVT COBRA
Haha I feel you! I sold my 03 two months ago and I absolutely miss the beast. Weekend cruising is not fun without the roars and burnouts xD
Dam that sux,when i crashed my 92 notch i had for 10 years i was without a stang for 1 1/2 years. Havent been stangless since 2013 now. Why did u sell her if u dont mine me asking.
Morbid SVT COBRA
I had 3 cars and 2 of them had to go for financial reasons obviously (I'm a student, and insurance companies show no mercy). The most practical car stayed :(
But I plan on getting another one (a 2015) when the new 2018 comes and prices drop. So hopefully within the next two years. Or a new edge and coyote swap haha!
Yeah my 97 needs a yote swap.. ASAP...
The coyotes are such huge motors no room in the engine bay that's why I'm doing a 363 fully built dart short block trick flow heads Holley EFI lots of boost lol
Always in the shop!
Hey guys thanks for sharing this wowbcar is awesome you just gave news for mine 🏁🏁🏁🏁😎
nice beast...Simmons wheels still selling strong down here ...but expensive
theo raptis , Yeah I got that wrong. Love these rims. I may opt for 18".
they look sik..love the dish
loved my old simmons wheels.Highly recommend them if you can find a set.
I love that car too.....badass!!!!
15,000 for a swap. " IT'S NOT THAT BAD ". What planet are you from .
Yeah it's high as giraffe ass
paid 25k for my 01 to be swapped
It's 15k because of labor. It can be done at home around 8k.
@@mwest25 jesus christ. Do you have any regrets?
Robert E Lee maybe 8k if you pull a used F150 motor haha. I also put a 6 speed transmission.
I have a 95 GT and the mud flaps make the car pop. I don't know what it is, the cars kind of look plain without them.
My dream car ! It's perfect as is
Love the sn95!!!!
Is it one of the most fun cars you have ever driven
Great video. Get a TVS blower and you'll really wake up that motor!
381 WHEEL horsepower seems like more than enough. The best decision a Mustang owner can make is not listen to other mustang guys advice on areas of power and noise. Any more power for this stang would be vastly over compensating.
Just beautiful!
This question may have already been asked but I failed to find it in the comments...how much did the entire swap cost you and did the shop do everything? I have a 98 gt with a seriously anemic 4.6 but I don't want to fork out the money for a newer mustang.
I'm with you on the s550 with the euro feel. Sick car... But not Mustang like...
I would like to swap a ford engine in my 69 mustang fastback.. I am looking into reliable mustang engines with stick shift.. any recomendation/suggestions?
94 is not new edge.
Coyote swap in a fox body coupe is the game changer.
I agree. Not a lot in the East coast, but more common down South and in Texas.
The real question. How much you have in the swap?
Yo shouldn't Ford put the coyote engine in the mustang in the future?
only I don't like about the new 5.0 is the sound....my 4.6 3v just sounds soooo much better....running slp axle backs and high flow cats...the sound is amazing!!!! that's why I'll never do a swap...I rather just procharger my 4.6 and smoke the new 5.0 ....500hp at wheels is enough power for me.
Jerry Nosowsky .... I beat a pro charged 4.6 when my Coyote was just full bolt ons.
Jerry Nosowsky 3vs sound alright. Coyotes are heaven though
Clean as hell
My white 96 GT might have to get a coyote.
just needs jpc's single turbo kit ;)
I'd love to coyote swap my 01 mustang
There is a guy in my area who has a silver 99-04 with a coyote swap!
actually his car is in the reccommended to this video lol.... his yt channel is Chris Sipple
I wonder if I could coyote swap in my 98 escort zx2 with rwd conveson
i love my 4.6 305 hp Cobra. Id take this swap but get your numbers right. The G.T mustangs had 240hp.
They are. 1994 Cobra had 240hp. GT was actually down 10hp from the previous year, only producing 215hp.
So how easy would this be in a 96 gt? If I did all the work myself would it still cost that damn much? I really wanna do this swap lol
If you are good mechanically, minus the labor you can do all of it in 15k. I just explained to someone that swapping the engine has other tangibles, like new exhaust, new intake, whether you want power-steering and AC, etc. If you're really serious, call Power By The Hour to get all of what you need, and they can even provide you with guidance on what you'll need. I wish I called them first; could've saved me a bunch of dough.
Awesome!
I love my 04 GT, planning a coyote swap myself. Is there a fix for the cluster so that it's useable? Or any aftermarket replacements? I almost thought it was swaped into a Termi Cobra, cause that one is VERY capable.
Cluster on an 04 should work fine. Just make sure you get the Ford Performance Control Pack. Also, call Power By The Hour just to be sure.
Wicked coyote
need to do this
Reyyyy!!!!
Wanna take a ride? :)
Reypadd yes please
Very nice car.
That’s a bad car 🤙🏽
I would like to to Coyote Swap a Crown Vic.
Marauder
Youre welcome
Awesome car!
I always laugh everytime his gut bounces around when he gets on it.
Ok so forget the cost of the body but any idea the swap would be? I got two mustangs both have good bodies but my 97 has 209 and trans is gone anyway but I only have 10 I might be able to get 12k all in. Think I could get it done?
With the added transmission add another 3.5k just for parts. There are also other tangibles that people don't think of, like exhaust, power-steering, booster brakes (which your 97 should be compatible with). It all adds up. If you're doing it all yourself it can be done for 15k in parts.
I also have a project Cobra mines an 04 with 66xxx miles
Could one theoretically do a 5.0 swap build using the 97 v6 stock body? Would it be worth it?
Trey Boko , theoretically you can Coyote-swap anything. The question of worth is relative.
Yeah, only difference is you'd need a 8.8 rear end swap atleast, and if you were gonna re use your trans you can't
Hey man does your gauges work properly with that motor? I'm coyote swapping my 95 Cobra as well and I'm just worried about the gauges working normally lol
It can be done, but it will be a headache, because the Ford Performance Control Pack is not plug/play with our gauges at all (94-95). A lot of re-wiring would have to be done, so I just went digital with AIM's MXS Strada dash, which hooks directly with the pack's CAN bus.
Reypadd damn that sounds like a lot of work but cool. I might just do what you did. Does that work properly and accurately? And how much did it cost if you mind me asking
It works great. Very accurate, since it's reading straight from the PCM and displaying it digitally; no lag. It's probably overkill, but it has a lot more it can read and display. I just have mine display the speed, tach, coolant temp., gas, and mileage. It even has an optional GPS "track" capability (where you can download a road course and track your performance). It is a little pricey though, about $1k.
Reypadd okay cool I like that! What's the name of it and where'd you get it from?
Reypadd it's worth it is doing all of that! You installed it yourself?
will u pay for tires
Very nice!!!!
Very Cool Car!
What kind of dash was that and where did you get one! Coyote swapping my 98

Reypadd Thank you!
not crazy about that year but she goes now
94 Cobras had the 5.0 pushrod right?
Correct. 94-95 had OHV 5.0.
I’m late to this vid was it shot in Honaker?
No. Near Front Royal.
Leave the damn cobras alone, they will be worth something again one day as they are a cobra. Engine swap v6 cars
But that's not a new edge. New edge is 99 to 04. Sn95 yes. But not the new adge
What transmission is he running to the new coyote swap?
Tremec T56 Magnum
i want the gt350 swapped into my 97 cobra
You'd be the first!
haha always in the shop..
would it make sense to coyote swap my 04 v6 mustang lol
If not attached to the car for 15k could get a used 2011 gt or maybe a 03 cobra
"will it do a burnout?" 😂😂😂 You joking right?
What about a supercharger on a 95
What driveshaft are you using?
Nice. Don't throw in a F150 5.0!!! It's not the same!
True. F150 doesn't have a forged crank and has less aggressive cams. Lower compression too. But, if you plan on rebuilding one, finding one for cheap might be worth it. They seem to sell for much less than Mustang versions.
If you're on a budget you may not have a choice, unless you find a wrecked 11-14 Mustang. The new ones for sale now are only gen-2 Coyotes that are now in the S550s, and it's $7,000. Here's a list of differences according to LMR: lmr.com/products/what-makes-a-coyote-f150-engine-different
Do some research, you can swap the cams and a few electronic bits and make them almost identical, to the tune of within 5RWHP identical. Last I looked, the exaust cam(the one that you need to do) was sub $100. If you can get a low mile F150 Coyote for 1/4 the price of a new Ford crate one, that leave a whole lot of money to use for the rest of the project. I almost pulled the trigger on one my local salvage yard had, $1300 for a 2012 5.0 with 33k miles on it, but I am too strapped for cash for my house remodel right now to move on it. You can do a lot to a motor if you have a price diff. of like $5k.
Unless you use the F150 that had the coyote engine.
JR306 actually it does have the forged crank. only difference is .5 less compression, intake cams, and tune.
