Default 2012 ecoboost in 66 pickup!

My uncle bought a 2012 ecoboost that was totaled, for a fantastic price. He then bought his 66 pickup to drop the engine in, and make a sleeper truck! I'll try keep you guys updated as much as possible, it just depends on how often he and my dad can send pics!

Ford said it cannot be done, so my uncle is setting out to be the first one to do it. The ecoboost has only been used in 2 vehicles other than ford, and one is a sand rail. He's going to raise the bar on what can be done with cars

Hope your uncle is able to get it to work, it will be the most technically advanced 66 out there. Looking forward for following the build.
