Just something to note, sometimes replacing a 05-09 fuel tank to a 11-14 fuel tank is the easier solution when running the return style fuel system and installing a bulk head. It allows for way more options for sending unit assemblies as well because 05-09 has limited (and expensive) options aftermarket.
Easiest solution is the Vette filter as it plugs into place of the stock mustang. Then all you do is run a return line and drop into the hat. It took me all of an hour and about $100 to do that.
@@generaldisarray6023 i think the filter/regulator setup is for stock motors and initial portion of the build, long term youll want a independent regulator so you can tune the car properly.
I have done the swap on my 05, but when I used a harness by a speed shop that will not be named, it ran, but could not use my a/c and it grounded out a lot of my BCM and the radio would not work, etc. I just went ahead and swapped in a 2013 premium body harness, dash, seats, etc. Just a note, there will probably be a few other wiring issues if you have a 05-06 as the harnesses are different. GREAT INFORMATION!!
Great! Try and a big reason why I’m apprehensive on offering a sort of swap harness because of the differences. I think the most I’d offer is the PCM body plug labeled to assist. The AC portion is a little more tricky than just swapping wires. I’ll cover that when the time comes.
@@MattSoppa Yeah, the A/C is a huge issue on the 05 06 as the 07 09 are set up totally different. I ended up doing the A/C condenser and all the piping from the 2013 GT, as the 05 06 have 2 A/C sensors in the line and it also got rid of the big A/C dryer that is located next to the brake fluid reservior. Also used the EPAS and track pack ABS, not sure if necessary, but I wanted all the modules to be able to use the track pack settings in my 05.
I’m looking to do a full body harness swap on my 05 in the coming weeks, any tips or advice you could give, still not 100% sure what I’m doing with it all
Nice job! But if you shop you can get an EPASS and harness for less than the PBH speed drive and keep everything in its proper place. Also It is WELL WORTH the $995 for the PBH conversion harness over rewiring and repining the factory harness. I completed my 07 swap for right at $3000 not including the engine and its bolt ons.
Did you watch the video? Also in order to keep AC cruise and Speedo working along with reverse lights you still have to we wire some things. Not to mention still have the 3V PCM, messy!
Hey Matt, I also wanted to give you a heads up on that corvette fuel filter/regulator. I used the same thing and when I was logging, it went lean at WOT. I ended up having to buy a regulator.
Matt I hope you do a step by step video on the wiring harness I’m really wanting to do this swap as well but am very intimidated by the wiring! Nice video, and I’m subscribing now!
Thank you for your supports. I don’t think I bc an go over every single wire when I do(it’d be way to long!), I can give a detailed overview. Plus if I do go re a way to distribute the guide I’ve made myself, that could be available to assist as well
i'm thinking seriously about swapping in a 5.0, (gen 1, 2, or 3, whichever i get a good deal on.....truck or mustang motor), with a manual transmission, into my '66 F100. would this spreadsheet translate over? what i mean is: would the 5.0 part of this spreadsheet simply serve as a guide on what wires to eliminate from the harness? i would imagine that the harness would be downsized quite a bit to do a swap into an older vehicle. this video was very informative.
For $150 I'll give you a step by step install using the PBH harness and will include pictures, where to connect the wiring and how to use the electric steering rack that is much cheaper than the PBH power drive and moving the alternator mess.
Hey Matt your build is amazing 💪👍. I’d like to do something similar. I have an 2010 f150 with a 6r80 transmission. I just came across a 10 - 12” gt500 motor and tranny that I’d like to swap into my truck but I’d like to run it with my automatic transmission the 6r80.

Is this possible and do you make a harness that would allow me to plug & play for this swap / application ?

Hello there, this is Jorge. I just have some questions regarding the harness conversion for a 5.liter coyote second gen! Out of an F150, I'm trying to put a manual transmission, but I don't wanna get the xterminator harness way too expensive. Would I be able to just modify the harness and make it work with the 4.6L transmission? Thank you for your time😅😅
@@MattSoppa So with the EPAS. Using the older gauges, you cant set anything with the EPAS settings. So what "mode" will it run around in? Thought about it yet?
Where did you get your harnesses? I would like to run new harnesses even if I have to run a setup from Ford. I have a 03' crown vic police interceptor I am thinking on doing a coyote swap and getting rid of the 4.6l 2v. Great engines just not enough power for me. Thanx for the content.
i have 2005 GT, i got s550 donor car gen2 with mt82. the easiest way is to swap everything including the interior, but i want to keep my 05 interior any tips on how to start this swap?

Hey Matt, is there any way you could post a link to that spreadsheet you have for the wiring? I've been trying to get a swap diagram up for me and got pretty close, but what you have there puts my diagrams to shame!
Doing the same thing to my mustang currently! 08 mustang gt. Gen 2 5.0 and 6 speed manual. Just pulled the motor and transmission out of the wrecked car. Got any part numbers you could assist with? Much appreciated. Great video!
The difference is you’d still have to wire for AC, throttle pedal and MAF. Although more user friendly, it’s a lot of added looms and not AS factory looking
If you use a gen2/3 you need to use gen 1 timing components with this method. Which means you can only use a gen 2/3 short block with either gen2/1 heads
When spending thousands of dollars you might as well buy a motor at the local scrapyard and buy a fuly forged rotating assembly and all new bearings as in building a race engine, you wont regret it down the line.

Hey Matt is this info still good if I bought a cheaper 5.0 from a truck? I heard the differences were compression ratio and maybe the oil pan but not much else.
Yes a gen 1 truck will work in this application. Oil pan I think is the same. Just get the mustang gasket for the wi date tray and oil pump gears are different too along with compression ratio

@@MattSoppa thank for the help brother… Is it ok if I contact you if I have any further questions? Because you seem to really know what it takes to do this swap
