How to coyote swap a 2005-2010 Ford Mustang GT PT. I

[@cemsengul16]

I always thought a 2005-2009 Mustang GT with a Coyote Swap is the best modern Mustang you could ever own. You get the classic styling with the modern power you desire.

[@TylersRapPromo]

Agreed

[@hakes2]

I just got an 06, fun car like it is , but ya thinking of getting stupid with it and do a motor swap

[@josephr.8622]

The 05-09 are still really cool one of the best mustang years, & if u coyote swap it awe man u got yourself a gem best of both worlds in terms of looks & power

[@MattSoppa]

My 07 is getting a Coyote treatment! Looking forward to this build

[@MattSoppa]

Also, according to PBH, the 2010s are way different and their swap harness won't work.

[@FoxcastMedia]

Im interested to see how it differs from swapping the new edge

[@rosendorendonjr]

What year is the coyote engine? I have a 2006 GT and wondering if I do the same!

[@roadkillrages2274]

Thinking about doing the same thing, what so u think of the swap

[@HPX584]

did you end up doing it? whats ur ig

[@GrantizEN]

I am VERY interested in this series, because I'm purchasing a first gen coyote for my Black 2007 Mustang GT\CS on the 9th of September. PLEASE keep it detailed. Love the content keep it up.

[@carlosgonz96]

If you're going for just a motor swap all you need is the engine, the 3160 if you don't have a manual. The PBH harness and accessories bracket. If getting a F150 engine you will probably prefer Mustang intake manifold and intake cams. Then just the fuel system and a fuel regulator

[@vladimirvenom8675]

how did this work out? thinking of swapping my 09 to a coyote

[@loganweisz8948]

It sucks that the coyote had such a huuuuge hp jump because it made the 3V look like garbage as far as power. Still a solid car especially for somebody who is new to mustangs.

[@FoxcastMedia]

The good thing is, its pretty easy to swap it with a coyote

[@cemsengul16]

True but the newer Mustang looked like garbage haha. Easier to swap the engine than fix the ricer body style.

[@loganweisz8948]

Absolute Longplay that’s definitely true

[@dc76384]

Exactly all these asshats trash the 4.6 but it's a versatile platform, 400 hp is possible without getting to the internals, or go with a SC.

[@dc76384]

It's the second smallest displacement V-8 of any Mustang ever made. And will out perform anything but a coyote or a SC cobra 4.6.

[@Reztek302]

I have a 05 mineral grey GT I love it. Catless x pipe and Mbrp mufflers. It sounds awesome. 285,000 miles on it and does not burn oil. This is the video I been waiting for.

[@TheSeangerber]

are you going to do a swap ? Mine has 150k so it was nice to hear your at 285k

[@mogulme6190]

Damn I thought mine was high miles. 06 black gt 277k miles and also burns no oil nor does it leak any

[@albarriault6147]

I've had a 05 mineral grey as well. Not many of them around . The valve rollers got f'd up. Just got my gen 3 coyote and can't wait to feel the difference

[@mikegay8511]

I'm so going to enjoy this build. I really do love the 05 and 10 GTs. Now the V6 cars are super cheap. I can grab one that is clean and solid and go to town on one. Be sure to do a price break down like the New Edge build. This one is going to be better then the New Edge build.

[@buhrrito]

Dude this is my FAVORITE body. It reminds me of Eleanor, the 65! My favorite. Now I'm very ecstatic to grab one. Kudos.

[@kimboslice6888]

Awesome. I really appreciate you guys doing this swap. I have a 05 gt with a broke motor. Already bought a 2012 Boss 302 and I'm about to start the swap. I'll be watching all videos. Thanks ✊

[@oliver9438]

Hey man, late reply but how did your swap go? that sounds really cool!

[@stephenroberts7816]

Very cool! I love the 05 to 10 body style! This is going to be cool!

I drove a manual 07 3v about 4 years ago and was amazed on how slow it was

Finally a true step by step tutorial

[@carlosgonz96]

You should check out mine. Swapped over everything from a donor '11 and pretty straightforward swap actually

[@wayneangrick3838]

Love the swap but you can make 500 wheel and 450 tq with a supercharger on a 3v. Seems like the only reason to swap a coyote in would be to make at least 650 or more wheel. Looking forward to the build

[@mogulme6190]

500 whp is pushing it on a 3v

[@emmanuelreyes8879]

There’s s lot of internal upgrades that must be done to keep it reliable at those numbers though

[@midnight347]

​@emmanuelreyes8879 no you can go upwards of 550 rwhp on stock bottom end safety with the right combo it can and has been done. You gotta have cams and headers and all the supporting mods keep tq around 450 you can do this while pushing over 550 rwhp with an efficient setup. Throwing boost on a stock car you won't be able to go that high it takes proper supporting mods.

[@midnight347]

​@@mogulme6190not really. You can go even higher with the right combo and setup and do it safely.

[@TheNova64000]

When the swap is done, It would be interesting to weigh it and see how the weight compares to a 2011-2014 Mustang! I'm guessing that it will be lighter and have a power advantage...

[@Iconhulk]

Heavier

[@mogulme6190]

Those year for Mustangs were underdogs. Mainly because they had no other Pony Car competition to own.

[@cruzanity7478]

I’ve been waiting for the 05-10 coyote swap series!! Very few KZbin channels have done them. I know Johnathan Harder got his 3v swap with the f150 coyote engine & Brenspeed Performance did “Project Baby Blue Balls” with a v6 to a Coyote Swap. Very underrated swap, seems a bit more simpler & some of these 05-09 3v are going for $3-5k in my area. I have two 3v mustangs that are both correctly down , so this would be a nice swap to do to at least one of them. Looking forward to the series!

[@carlosgonz96]

I did a full donor swap on my channel very straightforward swap and lot's of fun to drive

[@2003cobramustang]

Definitely looking forward to this build! And yes leave the gt badges on!

With the fuel system I think I understand it I have to drill a hole in the hat and make a fitting for the return line to feed back in the tank from the c5 return regulator also thinking I should upgrade the pump as well

The disrespected 3V . They sound great with cams but still slow

[@scotthines9953]

You can use a c5 corvette fuel filter and make a return fuel system for pretty cheap that will have the required fuel pressure for the coyote engines, the c5 filter has a built in regulator at 58psi. Also the 05 and 06 mustangs don't have the plug and play harness available unfortunately like the 07 to 09's, im finishing up a swap on a customers 05 mustang as we speak.

Depends on what kind of swap you're going for, it can be as low as 5k up to >10k also depends if you do the work yourself or a shop

[@davidbell1181]

The prices for the harness are not bad now. But still think you could come out cheaper finding a wrecked on and buy it doing a full interior and drive linee swap. Correct me if im wrong you would pretty much have absolutely everything you need.

Waiting for mine to blow up. At 216k bolt on and cammed it’s been reliable daily driver but it needs more power.

Hey guys going to do a swap on my 07..if you use ford control pack you have to purchase trans harness and since my motor didn't come with a motor harness, both of these items even used can run 4 to 500 dollars and the control pack going for 2000, would it not be cheaper and easier to purchase a holley terminator x harness..which is pretty close to a plug and play, your thoughts appreciated.

Would it be any harder to swap a Coyote into a V6 S197? You'd probably have to source a new transmission but other than that is it pretty much the same?

[@watermalanblew]

Can you link the part numbers for parts used ? Did you have to do any wiring for the cluster to work ? Did you use a control pack ?

Would the wiring harness work for a v6 because I want to do a future build like that and this vid is super informative

The 5.0 first gen only make around 360 at the wheels probably close to 400 bolt on tune , the cost of the engine and all the extra parts for the swap is not worth it for that little power , is more easy and cheaper to build the little 4.6 and make a lot more power

[@charlesmeaux3954]

Don’t use a stock engine or the old gen1. Do headers, intake tube while you are there abs be at 400 to the wheels. Or go with a gen 2 like I did and get 500 to the wheels with the bolt on’s

No you'll need a manual from the GT because it's a modular engine so it fits between the 4.6 and 5.0. I swapped mine with a full '11 donor and recommend using a full donor for a swap unless you can find all the other parts as well(GT ECU, trans, driveshaft, rear end)
