@KushCity313 lol so because we don't share the same opinion on the way a car looks i don't know what i'm talking about.....I drive an F-body kid.....the Foxbody is smaller and lighter.....and it looks old school.....sure it doesn't stand out like the 4th gen fbodys do but i remember a time where these fox bodys were smoking camaros and firebirds stock for stock....you don't see as many foxbodys with ls1s as camaros so id rather have the Fox....unless the ls1 camaro was drag ready...
I dont know why people trash on Ford motors so much. I mean yes your gto can beat a mustang Gt. But if you look at the displacement of the motor it is a different game. If 281ci mustangs were beating 350ci and even 6 liter motors made by GM then General motors would not be in business, even though the government owns them now. A damn motor is a motor. People put Chevy engines in other vehicles because of the cost to buy and build them as well as the availability of them.
Most talk shit about Fords because First off they are Too Cheap to build a Fast FORD. Second they are scared & have to jump on the band wagon. We have MANY fast cars Mostly FORDS. I have had a Stock blocked 5.0 that we sprayed 300 shot for over year racing EVERY week in AZ. NEVER even nipped a plug. Car went 10.30's ALL Day with a 1.28 60' on a Baby 275/60/15 drag radial. Most that talk shit are clueless & think their mid 11 second car is a rocket Period.
Agreed! Im not mad that people are putting chevy motors in fords- thats their choice. What Im mad about is when they put one in there because they cant afford to build a nice ford motor and then trash on Fords. Rediculous.
Btw that 10.3 (fox im guessing) must be a fun street car!
ls motors are pretty wicked, i'm a ford guy so whatever, but i think it's a lot cooler when my 306 smashes a ls powered car and then they do the cryin. if you wanna bitch about puttin a gm motor in a ford go ahead, just remember, don't talk any shit untill your ford powered car can whoop their gm powered ass. otherwise the real ford guys just get pissed off. I drive a ford powered ford, with less ci, i still win. not all the time, but alot of the time.
not gonna lie BADASS. and no one should hate on this swap. nor should they hate on a maro with a 5.0 swap. Ive seen those too... its all good. i could def see a lot of modern engine swaps too. the new 5.0 should be seeing its way into lots of fox bodies.
@DaBluedude100 hahahahahaha. fords sometimes run chevy engines but never the other way around , nobody want to downgrade by putting a ford engine in a camaro.
@jeflagoon I've Got a buddy with a 76 mark with a 351 Windsor in it. I will admit it's more common to see a ls in a fox but ford engines make their way into a lot of chevs.
What type of engine is in John Forces' Mustang, or any Ford bodied funnycar in the last 40 years? Certainly not a ford product, or even Ford design. so who really cares?
@jayscraft your wrong about that, they are definitely of ford design look at where the distributors placed, then look at a chevys its in the back even on funny cars.
so fucking loud. My buddy just picked up one, notchback, the exhaust is really quite, you wouldn't ever expect a 5.7L to be sitting under the hood, the motor is bone stock and he tears up pullied cobras, it's all that power to weight, car is less then 3k lbs with him inside.
This is a Ford I would love to drive. A Ford with a Gen 3 Chevy LS1 engine is badass. But however, I'd rather put a Ford 9" rear end in my Camaro. GM rear ends seem to be much weaker than the Ford 8.8" or 9". Too many people break those tiny 7.5" Camaro rear ends even with stock power...
@krisisbeast are you retarded? a 12 bolt will scatter across the ground with anything over 400hp. a ford 8.8 and 9 inch are the best rear ends ever made besides the dana 60.
You did a great job. I like the way it sounds. For those who don't like it. Transit bus manufacturers do it all the time so does the transit agency's during the mid life rehab/upgrades of the buses. Engines they put in are Commins, Detroit Diesel, Mann, John Deere and even I heard LACMTA testing some NABI 42 BRT Hybrid w/ a Ford Triton V-10 engine. It's your car and you can do what you want and I think that is great what you did.
To all the people dogging this guy, you obviously know nothing about cars. I would argue that the fox body is the finest american platform ever conceived. The combination of it's weight and simplicity. You can drag race them or tuned for the twistys. As far as the LS1, it's a match made in heaven. The LS1 is completely aluminum, so it probably weighs less than the 4 banger that was available with this car. Couple that with about $2500 in mods and your well over 550hp NA.
I LOVE it, I loved the foxbody mustangs for a good while and recently got into GM vehicles since it kinda runs in my blood..but damn I never stopped liking the foxbodies the ls1 purrs like a lion while idling and roars like a dragon when you hold that throttle wide open! Its easy to say I like both GM and Ford altho I prefer GM vehicles due to their more powerful n/a motors but damn that cars a beauty!
HA! i love it! Puts ford in there place, i love it cause chevy is still using over head valve setup and ford just sucks so bad that they had to put soch and dohc that is almost a import thing to do makes ford look like fuckin pussies!
ive been thinkin about doing this for a while. I have a spare ls1/t56 laying around and a notchback rolling chassis. How hard/expensive was it to make this work? Did you buy the parts or make them?
why do people bitch about a chevy motor in a ford. i think it's the ultimate sign of respect that rather than leave the ls1 in the chevy he went out of his way to put it into a fox body. it's not an afternoon job.
I don't really care for the swap. I think it's interesting and ls1's do make alot of power, however, I think a ford car should be powered by ford. Chevrolets' should be powered by chevrolet. The windwor small block can be bored and stroked upwards of 400 cubic inches, you can keep the origional integrity of the vehicle and still have a bad ass machine.
Hey man, I wanna do the same thing because chevy makes a good affordable motor and I want to use a fox body because they're light, look good and available. This build makes total sense to me. People's thinking is so black and white. The dude just wanted a fast car. If 1990's camaro's didn't look like a giant penis, i'm sure he would have chose that. Fox bodies have good style for their year.
Man....... why. You could have atleast went with a 347 stroker. I'm not impressed. To each his own though. But I'm a diehard ford fan. and to stuff a chevy anything inside a ford is a disgrace to me.
@SuRihtanil Huh? You are talking about a car, not a motor... not to mention it's only been anounced, is not currently available, and most certainly will be much more expensive then an 11 yr old motor with a simple cam swap that makes just as much power. We'll ignore the fact that this swap was done years ago and my statement is just as factual today as it was when I posted it.
@nicolasd89 All I am saying is there is other options for people who like mustangs... To each his own but dang man why would you take a ford mustang and put its biggest rivals engine in it. Its just WRONG! lol I am sure if you had to sale it that it would sale but I would never buy it or want to look at it only because I am a die hard mustang fan and I think its just completely in poor taste.
@SuRihtanil Of course there are options, and depending on your criteria I suppose you could try to make a case for swapping a different Ford motor in there but your case would be pretty damn weak considering the only plus you could make for it TODAY would be that it's got the words Ford written on it. Glad you are a Ford fan but take off the blinders. People have been putting other company's motors in their Ford, Chevy, whatever for a long damn time.
@adict11789 a 302 is a good motor just as good as a 350, I would never put a 302 in my t/a or a 350 in my 5.0 but that's just me.... If you want a 350 buy a LT1 Z28 they're just as cheap as a foxbody mustang.
@SuRihtanil I don't disagree. The 302 is a solid motor. But the LSx makes for a solid platform. It makes a lot more power out of the box, and it's a cheap way to go fast. For example, I've got a buddy here in KC with a 6.0 LQ4-swapped third-gen firebird. All he did was put a TC78 on it, run the plumbing himself, tune it, and get it running on E85. That car has gone 9.8x iirc. He put that car together for about $7500. Now, get a motor like that in a gutted notchback fox, and you're really flying.
@NorthwestShredsesh Yeah this is the first time anyone has put a chevy motor in a ford. *cough 32 ford roadster *cough. Been doing that for years and years.
i guess you can't tell that i was saying ls motors kickass and mustangs also kickass but the problem is it's a chevy motor in a ford. chevy should be powered by chevy and ford should be powered by ford.I've had 5.0's grew up on em and i have a camaro now,my second one. that makes plenty of sense to me peace!
No I could tell exactly what you were saying.. I was just waiting for you to say the typical lame ass ford's belong in a ford and chevy's belong in a chevy thing. It's a good thing that the world doesn't run according to you and that people have the freedom to do what the hell they want. People have been swapping motors since cars were invented... you might want to get used to it.
it makes perfect sence puttin a GM motor in a ford all dude is tryin to do is make tha piece of shit not a piece of shit no more with general motar parts
gtmuscrattool, man you really need to educate yourself. The garbage you are spouting is what gives teenagers a bad rep. You my friend have WAY too much internet knowledge and not enough first-hand experience. Stop working on your b18 and find a shop to turn some wrenches in, then post back.
I was j/w if you happened to know what exhaust system is being run on this car along with a list, if possible, of all the upgrades performance wise. I just bought an 03' LS2 that I was planning to put in a 88-93 notch. Thank you. AWESOME CAR!!!!! FORD MAKES IT CHEVY SHAKES IT!
I don't understand why everyone is crying about putting an LS1 in a mustang. Who cares if they are made by different brands? The power and potential of any LSx series motor combined with the size and weight of a fox body is the perfect setup.
2010 Camaro SS is ~3900 lbs while the 2010 Mustang GT is ~3500 lbs. I know math must be hard for you but this should be pretty easy. Math also comes into play with my Camaro and it's time vs horsepower. Do the math on what a well launching 750 rwhp 3500lb sled will do and it works out to a mid 9, wrong again. While having a battle of wits is usually fun for me having it with an ignorant teenager is kind of boring, it's not even a challenge. I'll just remove any more new posts of yours.
HA! Wow... Not gonna start the Ford vs. Chevy war in here and with this audience. Keep it up Nic! Funny how most who are even die hard Ford people appreciate the power of the GenIII motors and then you still somehow get the simpletons that just don't appreciate the differences. For the record the same HP and graph I had with that little 5.3 in this coupe would of cost several thousand more to make if I were building an NA pushrod or modular Ford motor. I've had several fast modulars as well...
it doesnt weight more your full of shit the ls1 cant handle that much there is a limit to the stock push rod block im saying stock block making that much hp your the dumb fuck and that camaro should be doin at least 2 secs faster with that much more hp o ya one of my friends split his ls1 at 70 thousand miles not even drivin it hard i was with him fuck gm motors
4.6 and 5.4s are stronger in the long run you can get like 1300 hp with a stock block i dont see ls1s doing that its also funny that the 2010 camaro has like 100 more horsepower with a way bigger displacement and its only a second faster than the mustang gt with the 4.6 forget the ls series its a joke
Yea, the LS1 blocks have been well past 1300 horsepower so try again. Actually, nobody ever has ever split an LS1 block due to too much power. It's funny you say the new Camaro is only 1 second faster than the mustang... 1 second is a HUGE difference and the Camaro weighs more as well. Anything else you want to show the world your ignorance on or is this enough?
Every single thing you just said was pure ignorance. I'm not even going to try to explain why everything you just said was wrong because your probably too dumb to understand why. Judging by all the B.S you just wrote, you have never even driven an LS powered car.
Huh? I'll try to decipher this post. Are you implying that there are 4.6L N/A motors making more horsepower than the LS1s with similiar mods? Because I sure as hell haven't seen simple bolt on cammed 4.6L or 5.4L N/A motors making anywhere near 420 rwhp like the LS motors do. You might want to take your whopping 19 years of life experience (3 of which you could drive) and do some research before you post again.
Well it's a good thing that the world doesn't run according to you. Brands would be referred to as bran and people would say would of instead of would have. Well that and you need a blower on top of a 5.4L Ford motor to compete with an LS1 N/A. Yup, it's a good thing it doesn't work according to you.
I am going to go with the obvious answer today... putting a modern power plant that makes great power yet gets great gas mileage in a lightweight vehicle like a fox body equals one fast and fun car.
you are an admirable man. u take one of the best motors and put it into one of the best bodies with no prejudice. i'd like to see you pop that hood so we can see that baby.
LOL people are putting Fords in Chevy's every day look at the Ford 9" rear end,so if you got a 9" rear end in your Chevy why cant ppl put a chevy into a Ford," Next up folks is a 2008 Z-06 motor in a Fox body AIIGHT !!!
Ya and like a retard who knows EVERYTHING - that he's read in a magazine of course.... You probably think the GT500 swap would be easier since its a Ford right? Putting a GT500 swap in the same category for comparison sake to this motor is about like comparing Lamborghinis and Fiero's. Next....
I'm onto a different project I think a GT500 would be a bit pricey. I have however thought about a Terminator swap. Same horsepower abilities much cheaper.
"much cheaper" doubt that part, but sure would be a great swap, a pulled 03-04 cobra engine with t56 will be almost 10 grand I'd bet, I've seen a couple of "fix up" 03-04 cobras for around 13-15 grand
Awesome swap! The ls1 is a great engine. All your really doing is a speed upgrade sowhat is the engine is from a competitor. The ls1 is lighter than the 5.0 and the 4.6 is a little top heavy from the ohc's. Awesome car!!!!!!
LOL.....tell me how you really feel CLEETUS! You're just angry cuz you thought only you and your kinfolk could inbreed aren't ya? I knew this would upset the edumacated' folk.....
you're a fucking jerk now the mustang ear like shit going out from you ass hole to your mom's mouth G-M suck's comme en bon quebecois dla grosse criss de marde dla dompe esti !
I have a 1999 Chevrolet Suburban that has a 454 cammed, supercharged, and sprayed at the track. It hasn't blown a rod, head gasket, cracked the block, or anything of the sort. GM is a great automaker, Don't put them down for anything. They are good cars and engines.
By the way, 10 second quarter mile. Pretty good for a 3 ton car.
LMAO....fast is fast. I am a big time Ford guy, love the cars but the 5.0 motors are no doubt lacking by todays standards and cost more to build than what I had into the entire swap. The LS1 is a stout motor and a very reasonably priced swap.... Pretty hard to beat the bang for the buck factor I achieved with this build in my opinion.
True about bang for the buck, not much LS1 at the wreckers round here, but the LQ9 engines are way cheaper than the 4.6 and 5.4. and I mean by thousand $ or more. So I'm seriously considering an LQ9 swap into my Crown vic.

@nicolasd89 Yeah like a 2011 GT 5.0 with 411 stock HP and a 6spd and its all ford. lol

@SuRihtanil Huh? You are talking about a car, not a motor... not to mention it's only been anounced, is not currently available, and most certainly will be much more expensive then an 11 yr old motor with a simple cam swap that makes just as much power. We'll ignore the fact that this swap was done years ago and my statement is just as factual today as it was when I posted it.
nicolasd89 1 year ago
@nicolasd89 All I am saying is there is other options for people who like mustangs... To each his own but dang man why would you take a ford mustang and put its biggest rivals engine in it. Its just WRONG! lol I am sure if you had to sale it that it would sale but I would never buy it or want to look at it only because I am a die hard mustang fan and I think its just completely in poor taste.
SuRihtanil 1 year ago
@SuRihtanil Of course there are options, and depending on your criteria I suppose you could try to make a case for swapping a different Ford motor in there but your case would be pretty damn weak considering the only plus you could make for it TODAY would be that it's got the words Ford written on it. Glad you are a Ford fan but take off the blinders. People have been putting other company's motors in their Ford, Chevy, whatever for a long damn time.

adict11789 1 year ago
@adict11789 a 302 is a good motor just as good as a 350, I would never put a 302 in my t/a or a 350 in my 5.0 but that's just me.... If you want a 350 buy a LT1 Z28 they're just as cheap as a foxbody mustang.
SuRihtanil 1 year ago
@SuRihtanil I don't disagree. The 302 is a solid motor. But the LSx makes for a solid platform. It makes a lot more power out of the box, and it's a cheap way to go fast. For example, I've got a buddy here in KC with a 6.0 LQ4-swapped third-gen firebird. All he did was put a TC78 on it, run the plumbing himself, tune it, and get it running on E85. That car has gone 9.8x iirc. He put that car together for about $7500. Now, get a motor like that in a gutted notchback fox, and you're really flying.

i guess you can't tell that i was saying ls motors kickass and mustangs also kickass but the problem is it's a chevy motor in a ford. chevy should be powered by chevy and ford should be powered by ford.I've had 5.0's grew up on em and i have a camaro now,my second one. that makes plenty of sense to me peace!
shadeybeast 2 years ago
No I could tell exactly what you were saying.. I was just waiting for you to say the typical lame ass ford's belong in a ford and chevy's belong in a chevy thing. It's a good thing that the world doesn't run according to you and that people have the freedom to do what the hell they want. People have been swapping motors since cars were invented... you might want to get used to it.

I don't understand why everyone is crying about putting an LS1 in a mustang. Who cares if they are made by different brands? The power and potential of any LSx series motor combined with the size and weight of a fox body is the perfect setup.

crazycrowd818 2 years ago
2010 Camaro SS is ~3900 lbs while the 2010 Mustang GT is ~3500 lbs. I know math must be hard for you but this should be pretty easy. Math also comes into play with my Camaro and it's time vs horsepower. Do the math on what a well launching 750 rwhp 3500lb sled will do and it works out to a mid 9, wrong again. While having a battle of wits is usually fun for me having it with an ignorant teenager is kind of boring, it's not even a challenge. I'll just remove any more new posts of yours.
nicolasd89 2 years ago
HA! Wow... Not gonna start the Ford vs. Chevy war in here and with this audience. Keep it up Nic! Funny how most who are even die hard Ford people appreciate the power of the GenIII motors and then you still somehow get the simpletons that just don't appreciate the differences. For the record the same HP and graph I had with that little 5.3 in this coupe would of cost several thousand more to make if I were building an NA pushrod or modular Ford motor. I've had several fast modulars as well...

it doesnt weight more your full of shit the ls1 cant handle that much there is a limit to the stock push rod block im saying stock block making that much hp your the dumb fuck and that camaro should be doin at least 2 secs faster with that much more hp o ya one of my friends split his ls1 at 70 thousand miles not even drivin it hard i was with him fuck gm motors
gtmuscrat 2 years ago
4.6 and 5.4s are stronger in the long run you can get like 1300 hp with a stock block i dont see ls1s doing that its also funny that the 2010 camaro has like 100 more horsepower with a way bigger displacement and its only a second faster than the mustang gt with the 4.6 forget the ls series its a joke
gtmuscrat 2 years ago
Yea, the LS1 blocks have been well past 1300 horsepower so try again. Actually, nobody ever has ever split an LS1 block due to too much power. It's funny you say the new Camaro is only 1 second faster than the mustang... 1 second is a HUGE difference and the Camaro weighs more as well. Anything else you want to show the world your ignorance on or is this enough?

to bad there is 5.4s running quicker times in fox bodies without superchargers including 4.6s it takes a fuckin ls1 to beat a 4.6
gtmuscrat 2 years ago
Huh? I'll try to decipher this post. Are you implying that there are 4.6L N/A motors making more horsepower than the LS1s with similiar mods? Because I sure as hell haven't seen simple bolt on cammed 4.6L or 5.4L N/A motors making anywhere near 420 rwhp like the LS motors do. You might want to take your whopping 19 years of life experience (3 of which you could drive) and do some research before you post again.

ruined that car all cars should keep their own bran would of done a 5.4 instead
gtmuscrat 2 years ago
Well it's a good thing that the world doesn't run according to you. Brands would be referred to as bran and people would say would of instead of would have. Well that and you need a blower on top of a 5.4L Ford motor to compete with an LS1 N/A. Yup, it's a good thing it doesn't work according to you.

"much cheaper" doubt that part, but sure would be a great swap, a pulled 03-04 cobra engine with t56 will be almost 10 grand I'd bet, I've seen a couple of "fix up" 03-04 cobras for around 13-15 grand
papaown 2 years ago

LMAO....fast is fast. I am a big time Ford guy, love the cars but the 5.0 motors are no doubt lacking by todays standards and cost more to build than what I had into the entire swap. The LS1 is a stout motor and a very reasonably priced swap.... Pretty hard to beat the bang for the buck factor I achieved with this build in my opinion.
bigdaveswife 3 years ago 2
True about bang for the buck, not much LS1 at the wreckers round here, but the LQ9 engines are way cheaper than the 4.6 and 5.4. and I mean by thousand $ or more. So I'm seriously considering an LQ9 swap into my Crown vic.
