Coyote Swap Guide in old trucks?

Hello,
I'm new to the forum and looking around if there might be someone that wrote up a guide on how they put a Coyote 5.0 into one of our old trucks? Thanks for the help.

Jeff

Welcome, Jeff. There have been several well documented Coyote swaps into the F series trucks. Advance search will yield several such threads. Should keep you reading and looking at pictures for several days. My cut and paste is not working so you'll have to do the search.

Thanks Ray. I've read a bunch of posts. I haven't seen any yet tho that use the C4 type front suspension and that's where I'm leaning. I know the rack on those setups stick up kinda high. Thanks again.

Hey Jemo,
You may want to look up rzns60 (Kelly). He installed a Coyote in his old truck... might be able to give you some thoughts on your install. I know he modified his suspension quite a bit...


Good luck over there.

Thanks Ben. Do I need to have a certain number of posts before it lets me message someone?

Hi Jemo,
I'm not sure but I think it might be 5 posts. Shoot Kelly a note & see if it works. I can send him a note for you if you still can't get through.
Where in Texas are you? Post some pics of your truck & you'll get more views & quicker responses from other members.
