Bout to start an engine swap on my 95 F150 4x4 here real shortly...Edit......2015 coyote 5.0 it is...Current plan as follows.
5.0 coyote
6r80 trans
Tcase
Long tube headers
True duals
Custom tune
Pats delete
33 gallon tank
6 inch lift
35s
456 gears?
Swap auto hub for manual hubs
Full dash, steering column and harness swap from 15 truck
Raptor wheel with paddle shifters
Toying with the idea of 2018 mustang gt lcd gauge cluster or the red fx4 cluster if that dont work.
before you even go that far with starting the swap, i would measure the width of the engine bay VS the new modular engines. That year F150 was never meant to hold a modular motor
Just wanted to update say this swap is officially happening....Ive decided to go with a 15 or newer f150 5.0 as they are cheap and plentiful and low milage....Im in the process of getting my dad another truck so we will have something to drive while mine is down. Then im starting on mine. Progress will most likely be fairly slow at first as i gather parts plus this is going to be a a pretty big undertaking especially the interior and wiring aspect.
First major thing is going to be cutting the crossmember for ac and alternator clearance and then building motor mounts and trans mount......Next is going to be having two driveshafts made. Once i get it running then ill decide how to go about doing the interior ......I really really really want the lcd cluster but i need a pinout of the f150 cluster (14 pin) and of the mustang cluster (16 pin). I may have to use a mustang ecu and harness and column .....Here are pics of the lcd cluster.
Another lil update i reckon.....Found a donor f150 that im getting engine, trans, t-case, column, cluster and entire harness front to back out of a couple hours away for a decent price....Got another truck to drive in the meantime but its not running quiet right atm so still sorting it out before i tear mine down ontop of this garbage weather we keep having every since hurricane michael hit us dead on like a freight train a couple months ago making it hard to get anything done on the other truck.
But ive got the frame modifications and motor mounts figured out i believe also think im keeping the returnless fuel system via corvette fuelfilter/regulator combo. Motor mounts will be factory mustang gt mounts. Found out that the 2018 mustang gt lcd cluster appears to work with the f150 harness so we shall see about that. I want a 33 or 38 gallon rear tank and im getting rid of the side tank.
Here pics of frame modifications.
