That’s actually very untrue depending on the vehicle. You can buy a fox somewhat cheap. If you mod it to 700hp you’re going to get a lot of your money back. Someone with money doesn’t want to do those mods, that doesn’t care about it matching, and anyone who knows a fox will pay money for one with good parts and and high hp. Coyote? Waste of time and money. I paid 3500 for mine, and I guarantee that if I put in a $3,500 t56 and a 500hp ($11,000) 427 stroker, that I could get $20,000 or more for it.

The best way to go about it is to work on each part of the car as a separate project and then drive the car in between each project. Upgrade the fuel system, 8.8 swap (older cars), hydroboost conversion, bigger brakes, cowl hood, suspension, etc. The last thing I would do is the coyote swap. The common denominator in all my buddies failed projects is biting off more than they could chew. They take the car apart, realize the magnitude, and then stop working on the car. Years ago I completed a Maximum Motorsports suspension swap on my 96 and I am currently sourcing parts for an 8.8 swap and hydroboost conversion on my 85. The difference is, I still drive my cars and they aren't just a pile of parts sitting in the garage. Mike Dula has a channel, "House of Dula", and he breaks it down into separate projects. 50 tussin is another good channel.

Thanks for being honest and transparent. I did a Terminator swap in my 93 coupe, and it took me 3 years. I'm happy with the end result, but I will NEVER do another swap again due to budget busted, clearance issues, opportunities to upgrade other components in order to support the massive increase in power from oem.
@Multi68stang5 жыл бұрын
I think what a lot of people don’t understand is that a lot of the cost of a Coyote swap is not actually in swapping the 5.0 into the car but insuring the rest of the car can survive the power of the new motor. IMO no matter what motor it is, when you start pushing over 400rwhp you will need to start digging deep. Brakes, suspension, rear end, fuel lines, driveshaft, transmission, clutch, radiator, etc etc will all need to be either rebuilt or replaced with stronger, better parts.
@UrPeaceKeeper5 жыл бұрын
110% this. You could probably drop a coyote into a fox for about 6-8 grand if you didn't care about doing it right and addressing the chassis, brakes, and suspension.
@black88lx5 жыл бұрын
None of that truly has any bearing. All of that same stuff needs modifying and replacement as soon as you touch the stock motor anyway. Stock t5 will blow with a stock motor. Fuel system is already maxed stock. Rest needs 31 spline and gears , cooling systems are marginal at best. All of these things will cost you money regardless

I’m the original owner of a 91 gt convertible. For years I had a 306ci with a Vortech s-trim and a host of other drivetrain and chassis mods. Until in late 2010, I had a engine fire that luckily did not roast the entire car. Thankfully I had a good insurance policy on it and I wanted to get it fixed. The guy at the body shop suggested to go with the new coyote motor that was just coming out in the 2011s. I knew this was not going to b easy because of this being a never before done swap. I had some issues with the car when I got it back that took years to straighten out. I almost regret doing the swap until I get in and do 7g shifts with my automatic and listen to that motor scream!

Man... why do coyote swapped foxbody people make this swap seem hard? It really isn't any harder than pulling the 302 to rebuild it. The entire swap is well documented on just about every major mustang forum and Facebook group. The hardest part of the swap is dealing with the "while I'm in here" nonsense that comes with having to mess with wiring, plumbing, HVAC, etc. The amount of custom parts that dont exist on the market already is quite small... You want a challenge? 6.2L raptor swap the car... no Ford ECUs with pedals to handle the wiring, no prebuilt exhaust headers, motor mounts, or bracket kits to mount various pumps and really not that big of an aftermarket. I'm doing it, the build can be found over on the ProTouring forums in the build section (Sometimes A Great Notion - 1989 Foxbody Mustang Build) and the swap is not super complicated to understand. The key to these swaps is planning. As the military says, proper preparation and planning prevents piss poor performance. You minimize the "While I'm in here" with a realistic list of what actually needs done. You can better budget the build with parts that are essential in a certain order. No use buying the power steering pump bracket when you don't have the k member types of things get eliminated with good planning. Its definitely not for the mechanically challenged, but if you have any wrench turning ability and the ability to plan and take your time, it's not difficult. Difficult is blazing a trail through the woods on a barely traveled path and documenting it for all to see! Also, love my 2015 Mustang GT/PP, but I hate how Coyotes sound. The old flat head V8 firing order ruined the otherwise great modular V8 sound. Glad my 6.2L Raptor motor has the standard modular firing order.

i know some folks were at least initially against it - some folks still are against it i think because perhaps they don't understand it - but i honestly _really_ *love* the modular DOHC 4.6L V8 that the Mustang Cobra SVT had from '96-'99 before they even went to the supercharger.... I just _adore_ those engines... they were just beautifully designed and produced so much horsepower without needing to go to a larger displacement simply by using more efficient features with the engine... i really love the 1996-1999 Mustang Cobra SVTs and I would buy one in a second if it was stock and I knew it wasn't dogged like crazy... I love the white ones especially with tan interior... that's kinda like my dream Ford car that isn't a Foxbody of course... naturally, there was _so_ much improvement done to the modular V8s with the overhead cams... i think it was done extremely well, and even without a supercharger or turbocharger, the new 302 which i was freaking *overjoyed* about when i heard about it coming out and it has just gotten so much better over time =) of course, like any mustang lover, i adore the Foxbody Mustangs and with them the 302 5.0L engine :) if i could choose a Mustang to buy right now though, in all honesty, because of the very reason @Foxcast Media discussed - i probably _wouldn't_ go for a Foxbody because the stock vehicles are just out of my price range... after all, you can still find some '94s with the 302 even though they aren't Foxbodies; however, you still have that engine and most likely it hasn't been overly modded... The problem with the other Mustang GTs and stuff though is that they only had single overhead cams (SOHC) V8s, which really let us down with the power at about 215hp rated back in 1994 if I'm not mistaken... however, the SVT Cobra still used the GT40 heads with high airflow and they worked really nicely with that 5.0L engine as they had since 1993 of course. that's one reason I would probably get a '96-'99 Mustang Cobra SVT because i simply *adore* them - their body style, their lines, and everything... i just love them. i mean, it isn't like i would buy that car and then go right to some sort of modification! i really would want to keep it as stock as possible... the exhaust is lovely, so i would want to keep that just as it was from the factory as well as the heads, the cams, valves, springs, etc... so, i mean, i would love to find one that someone had done some modifications to and bring it back to stock or find one that was kind of messed up by a younger guy who just loved speed and then take some appropriate steps to rebuild the engine, put some nice performance parts that would keep it classy and allow me to have one of my real dream cars :) the other real dream cars of mine are the G Body Buick GNXs especially from 1987-89; however, those are way out of any price range... i actually saw an SVT Cobra from 1999 for only $14,750. i would pay that tomorrow if i could find another one like that LOL :D

I've been watching you for some time. Your car is awsome and I'm glad u had the budget to build your dream fox. That being said here's where I am on this. I will take one point u made a little farther. I dont think any v8 car should be used especially rare and survivors. Especially what Dover is doing going around and snatching up cars for swaps to sale he should only use 4 bangers and here's why. Like u said the v8 fox is getting harder and harder to find most have been wrecked or turned into race cars. I have a 90 lx hatch. It's in need of restoration but a survivor completely stock. I do plan on building a new engine and it's a slugomatic so a 5speed is in its future but the car will remain a pushrod fuel injection car. What all the pushrod haters dont get is these were the cars that bridge the gap between old school pushrod power and new school technology " the full on fuel injection and a computer controlling the engine. But also bc of the firing order not being regular 5.0. The h.o engines had a 351 firing order not a 302 like the non h.o so it breathing threw a set of flow masters has a unique sound only a 5.0 h.o has. They just sound bad ass. The coyote swap is awsome it has its advantages for sure more power with better mpg if I put over 400 hp in my pushrod it would drink gas like crazy compared to a stock coyote putting out that much. But that's my opinion and I guess if all of you swap coyotes in them then that will just make the value of mine go up.lol like what u do brother keep it up. And what 5 lug swap did u use that's one thing I plan to do

Great video. I’m debating a turbo coyote build for my 88 turbo coupe. But when I see that parts bill I almost pass out. I mean any well built car should cost 20k but the small stuff for this nickel and dime you so quickly.

I got a 2v pretty much stock except Coilovers, clutch, and radiator. Has 140,000 miles wanted to swap it but I also just wanted to build my 2v and just looking to make 400hp maybe 500hp if I can but not looking for anything too crazy… any advice on what to do to the car to get there?

So it would probably be cheaper to do a mild big block Ford stroker build. That's where I was headed with the scat rotating assembly. It's a 460 with the 554 stroker. (.30 over so a 514 or somewheres round there) I just want decent horsepower with brute torque. Don't can't care that it's 700+ lbs. Just want big reliable power. anyways love your channel keep um coming. we appreciate you. take her easy. keep it between the ditches 👍👍

Turbo the 5.0 with small twins. You'll have more torque than you'll know what to with on street tires
@damonlemasters34245 жыл бұрын
Dont do it if you have a low miles matching numbers car. A old pushrod Windsor block probably has more potential anyway.

No need to coyote a old fox 5.0 You can make some big power out of those motors and parts are cheap and plentiful.

I’m currently planning a coyote swap for my 2000 new edge mustang. I have a boy on the way and he deserves a nice car when he graduates. Then after that I want to coyote swap my 69 mustang! (I know... a true pain in the ass job)

I've already Coyote-swapped my 70 Mach 1. Buying a IFS kit makes it pretty easy, really. Honestly, the biggest pain has been getting a 6R80 swapped in behind it. Major transmission and firewall surgery so far...

And the very beginning of people doing the newer 5.0 swaps it was cheap everybody figured out a cheap way of doing that swap .. Then the motors prices at the junkyard went through the roof

how far into the harness do the fusible links run? I think this is my problem on my 88. I know off subject. sorry just need some fusible link help. Thanks in advance...… no where do the actually show this. I know they are right there off the solenoid. but how far into the harness do they run.
@fordtechlife5 жыл бұрын
They should be located very close to the fire wall solenoid probably within the first 3 two 6in of the wiring attaching to the solenoid i would think
@WinZard5 жыл бұрын
@@fordtechlife ya I figured it out thanks...… had to do some more google picture searching. it is the factory links. so they are the big rubber rectangular blocks. the wire inside those blocks is the fusible link 2inches long at most. so no need to open up the harness at all. The ones you get from the auto parts store are the long wire looking fusible links. so was not sure. glad I didn't open up the factory harness for nothing. :) I will do a live video or something on it to hopefully help others in the future. I don't like editing... LOL so a quick live upload works best. hope I get it up and running soon.....

OK Foxcast 👍 I been watching your videos long enough to know that you don't swap a Cobra especially from 1993(idiots!) & yes the value on GTs is climbing (for great running low mile documented 5 spd cars) but what if they had over 200k on it or no motor @all?

Fantastic Reality Check.Too well Said... If it runs good, or you just need/.want more power..... To Do Coyote you're gonna have to put $20k into everything JUST to have more power? Just go BUY one done... Get a Grip. Don't DO IT my Son is Top End UTI Tech who know's his stuff/works for Ford... He says "Too Much FUN !!! This Guy Tells you the TRUTH with no Vested interest...

How much cheaper will it be to put a 115 coyote vs the GT. Just swap the GT cams over.
@UrPeaceKeeper5 жыл бұрын
A lot cheaper since truck motors sell for a fraction the cost of the mustang motors at auto recycle places like LKQ.... couple grand anyway.

Should be a number 6 why you shouldn’t do a swap like this .... Number 6 wife or girlfriend gets pissed because you’re spending too much time and money with the build.(if you have a wife or girlfriend, heck maybe both and they are into the build, then by all means skip number 6 and carry on).

The Swap everyone wanted was the 351W. It required the rest of the Fox platform to be upgraded to sustain real torque and balanced horsepower; brakes, fuel system, drive train, and suspension all require that NEXT STEP to make a palatable all of the time 400 horsepower Beast. I have two 351W's... one is so stock the heads have never been off the block, and the other is a punched and stroked 432. Trust me.... most of you require nothing more than a 100% stock 351W truck block with a Blower. Anything else and you would kill yourselves.
