  • can you put that cobra air filter on a 06 v6 mustang

  • i can only wonder how that would ever pass an OBD-II emission inspection.

  • @automotiveDIY Who care with a ride like that?

  • I think the v6 maybe off to the side and going "now what the hell?!" XDD

  • Alright. I want to know. How much was this swap roughly?? Its become a serious thought since the stang was totalled. and going to rebuild it my way.

  • That's what I rather have is the 460 instead of the 5.4 IMO....

  • I want that in a Honda S2000!

  • how much to do a 5.4 swap into a 2001 mustang

  • What a beast...

  • You guys can do this to my car if you want. I'll love you a lot..... a LOT... I'll even let you have my girlfriend for awhile.

  • FUCK YEAH!!

    Pushrods!!

  • I'd love to do this in a Grabber Blue 2010 Mustang. Gonna find one wrecked for cheap though. This is seriously sick as hell man, great swap and was it hard to do?

  • 4 people drive Hondas.

  • thats exactly what i want to do to my 04 v6...how much money did you drop?

  • Some people say you can keep the factory gauges I'm curious how do you wire them to the old engine don't they go through the computer and what about the ignition switch will it still work once the 4.0 is gone I know chevy had that vats crap

  • How can that pass emissions...

  • @FordGtman333 I would like to know the answer to this also!

  • depending on where you live in the usa, the car might not have to pass emissions. I know where I'm from there are not restrictions on exhaust, except for noise, but with an old muscle car or truck you can get away with quite a bit...

    I had some hideously loud 2.5" glasspacks on my car for a week or so; it was rediculous and heart my ears every time i put it down. it made a lot of people rubber neck!

    "My car is a hybrid... It burns gas AND rubber"

  • @FordGtman333 It won't but in some places that's not a problem. Where I live it would be ok. :)

  • i want the old motor O,.O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wht kind of transmission did yall use?

  • You got sick of that v6 that fast?

  • I didn't realize that in Detroit baisically all you need working is horn and lights haha. So I guess it is street legal there. It would never get stickered in a state where OBDII tests are mandatory (which is just about every state in the country now). Very cool indeed, but I think I'd shell out for a forged 5.4L/Mammoth Whipple over this. That setup would be 50 state legal and capable of 1000+hp.

  • did yall have to modify the engine mounts to make that v8 fit

  • How much did all that cost?

  • Comment removed

  • That is SWEET. At first I was like why, now Im like WHOA, Its awesome!!!!!!!!!!

  • and did u guys have working stock gauges because im thinking about doing something exactly like that

  • how much was a custom k member and im guessing custom trans, driveshaft and rearend?

  • That's just plain fucking cool

  • nice motor good call sounds great

  • so its not street legal right ?

  • basically

  • It's a Ford Racing 460. Actually it's way more expensive than a GT, but the customer wanted it. Definitely a head turner when the hood is popped. As far as headers, they are custom made. We didn't have to do anything to the firewall. Just a custom K-member and it fit int there like it was made for it. We were nervous about it and was happy at the results.

  • i have a 4.6 3v , its a short block but im building her up little by little in the garage, can you tell me more or less what im missing to do the swap into an 08 v6, and a rough estimate on how much your shop would charge me to put everything in. Its Auto not standard but i heard that the 4.6 will bolt right into it. Any help would be nice about to give up on her

  • @yourmofo how fast is it?

  • nice!!!! its new school with the old school sound i love it!!

  • Fuggin TIGHT!!! I wonder after all the man hours and parts if it would have been cheaper/as cheap as a GT.

  • are you kidding me? the crates alone start from 3k and that one was probably 8-9, the whole engine bay had to have custom fabbed motors mounts too and a bunch of other stuff, probably cost in the high 5 digits for the engine installation alone

  • lmfao. that can't be street legal. what would you do with it?? fits in there better than the 281 lol.

  • @rrtx2007 why couldnt this be street legal?? its not like engines like this wernt fitted in the 60s and 70s etc etc... it has catalysts (or could have catalysts) it meets safety regulations. Hell you could even insure this car as a V6 and it would be cheap as hell!

  • hey again anybody know what size motor that is ?

  • me want

  • is that a 460ci and if it is did he have to cut the firewall back any? if anybody know let me know thanks

  • wich headers hve you use to this swap???? nice job, ii really like it and i plan to do the same.

  • .... um i read the description.... you did tell the customer before doing this right? otherwise it would go something like this "damn guys the exhaust work sounds great... *gets home later that day*... better check the oil, *opens the hood*...umm....."

  • Obviously you DIDN'T read the description. It says:

    "The customer wanted a old school motor in a new car."

  • lol it was a joke

  • nice! wish i could sell my wife and get a motor swap!

  • LMAOOO thumbs up.

  • Damn! It doesn't get any better than that Old School Ford V8 sound! That's what I call a true muscle car!!!

  • O.O...i think im gonna switch sides...I WANT!

  • @ChevyRacing987 doooooooooooooo it!!!!!!!!

  • How much did it cost the customer in labor, parts, and etc, to have you guys put this together for him?

  • why didn`t he just but a gt or shelby or cobra to begin with?

  • Maybe he wanted to save $40,000??

  • a gt v8 would have cost a lot less than this new v6 plus all the work

  • A gt engine is only 300HP at the crank, maybe 270 at the wheels. This engine is 550 HP ! It's also simpler, easier to mod and cheaper to run.

    The new Supercharged ford is maxed out at 450hp and needs about $9000 in work to hit 550.

    For $9000 you can buy this engine. It also sounds like pure sex.

  • OK,

    I just got a 2009 v6 pony package,Apparently it is governed to 113mph in Canada, it is enough for me, next time I think I will get a new challenger, it really has an edgy look, I was thinking about the new camaro, but it looks like a plastic, concept chicks car, what do you think about the challenger, I know it is heavy, but it looks nice and has a substantial interior, my new mustang inside id full of cheap plastic.

  • i have an 07 sixxer and is governed at 117mph (US). all you need is a simple hand held tuner and you get some extra HP and that speed limiter is gone.

  • I was told that as I have an `09 model pony package, the tires and drive shaft, should be able to handle the extra power, as in the earlier models they could fail, not sure if that is true.

  • nah, they only had problems with 05-06 driveshafts exploding but that was fixed. i believe stock internals can handle up to 400hp. the rear end isnt too strong though. but yes the base model tires are horrible lol.

  • As mine is a pony package It has bigger wheels and beefier tires, still it is enough for me, especially in four feet of snow.

  • My 07 has been up to 155 mph many times on a stock drive line.

  • um you obviously need to watch my old videos and my old car was alot more than just flashed thumbs down back

  • that being said u have never once sat in a seat of a good running stock gt

  • watch out though cause the driveshaft that comes stock on the v6 is unstable above 120mph

  • i would imagine they swapped out the driveshaft also

  • Im happy with the challenger looks but the 5.7 Hemi times are like a V6 mustangs lol

  • surprisingly the GT's 3v 4.6 makes a notch over 280 at the wheels

  • @ASSEMblerEX this swap would cost about 50k to do man.. dont kid yourself... just in raw parts your looking at 25k easy... nevermind all the custom fabrication, tuning, computer software to keep everything safetywise working, mods required to suspension components, labor, and just the sheer OH SHIT THIS MIGHT NOT WORK factor... i could take a 4.6l GT to 550k with 8600 Bux... (vortech blower, better breathing intake, ported heads, lowered compression ratio (8.5ish). But this is way cooler!

  • @DaBluedude100 Well someone could build a

    nice 460 and put it in a V6 roller. The "throw money at it until it happens"

    route works just as well I suppose.

  • yea but you have near that much power!

  • because he didn't want one... he wanted old school engine in new mustang. I've got an Eaton SC in my 2006 4.0 but in the future I want to do an old school swap like this. Just need to decide on a 351W or go all out for a 428 (wanting to do a 69 Mach 1 throwback)

  • nothin like a ford big block... and in a new stang, too.. thats awesome!

  • How much does something like this cost to do? How do you keep the new motor in sync with the car's computer system?

  • You dont use the car's computer system. They are not compatible. Probably cost around 15k or more with labor.

  • MORE VIDS! =)

  • I want this! what is in it now?

  • old school heart in a new school body, i love it deff a sleeper, sounds amazing also.

  • i was about to say how it would be such a bad-ass sleeper, but i just realized you'd have to be deaf to fall for it

  • damnnnnnnn!!!!! im so jealous

  • how fuckin much did this cost???

  • thats the sound of muscle.... thats right up there with women moaning.

  • when he revved it...i shit my pants

  • DUDE thats insane!! I've seen stuff like that online, but i would never be able to afford it

  • Hey, get off their cases. It's one less v6 on the road !!

  • Most states adopted emmision rules..

    You have to consider the weight of the car.. unlike a Fox Chassis this car is a tank..

    a 347 N/A is like 410Hp.. that's 310RWHP.. big deal..

    I would have put a supercharger on the V6..

    Laters!

    Les

  • LOL!!!.. are you kidding?.. since when do we loose 100 to the wheels? do we have independent rear susp.?.. no.. we arent talkin about a Goat here.. stock GTs are "300".. to the wheels thats like 260 something.. theres no way in hell hes loosing 100 hp from the flywheel to the rear wheels, on a s197.. call me crazy..

  • 410HP = 350RWHP. Not bad. He could have just bought a GT and supercharged it to make 410RWHP. Thats what im going to do, instead of swapping engines and stuff.

    He also could have S/C the V6. with heads and cams that car could easily make 390rwhp.

  • My 07 GT just put down 484rwhp on a mildly conservative tune and 10lb's of boost.. You gotta get the right setup

  • Have you been to the track with that 484rwhp?

  • Waiting on the rain to break.. We had a pinched wire in the fuel pump that made me loose fuel pressure at woot. After new plugs, fuel filter pulled the gt500 pumps twice, 60# injectors we found a wire wasn't seated in a hrness good and she runs like a champ now. I'm shooting for mid 11's on ET streets

  • Crazy.. Read 'em and weep..

  • Stock GT have 300 hp...at the engine, not at the wheels !

  • LOL.. THATS WHAT I SAID.. at the fly wheel.. when it gets to the wheels.. its about 260.. mayb 270 on a stick..

    and slivrdbackrilla.. you in florida?

  • amazing, Sounds bueatiful how did u change the exhaust flow like that?

  • sounds like a cutout.

  • That is some Beast...u got there Nice ride.

  • how much hp dos it have and do you know why it did that when you where driveing it

  • You think this could take a crotch rocket bike?

  • probably i want to put a crate engne in my 05 so bad bt i cant find a place that would do it for me

  • no way

    not a chance

  • Was it hard?

    Am i better of supercharging my V6?

  • ya im fixing to be attemting this swap with my 1997 ford f150 4.6L 4x4. how hard was the wiring? dos all the inteior electronics work?

  • doesn't look like it has much wiring. So im thinking it shouldn't be bad, spend a day at wiring at most.

  • I bet that baby gets with it!

    Do you guys know the company that sells the kits to put a 302 in a Focus?

  • and for the dude that put this badass in.. uh.. damn.. where are you at and how much you charge? i could put everything togather.. just would have a prob with getting a damn 500 lb engine in my car without destroying it.. i think i just need a new driveshaft.. stock ones suck.. i already have dual exhaust.. and of course cut outs.. :) anything else??

  • hey, Im getting my stuff from JEGS. I am going to instal everything myself, If you order a crate engine 302 the swap should be easy.

    FORD 302 crate engine:5000.00

  • hey which motor are you looking at?? i wanna do the same thing.. i got a 06 v6.. have you seen Ford's Boss 302?? its like 8k from ford. there are other sites that sell them for like 4k.. what deals have you found??

  • dude, I have a 2005 V6 mustang. Later this year Im going to put a small block 302 with cutouts in it. I cant wait.

    I am going to leave the single V6 mustang exhaust on with a muffler of some sort so the person next to me at the lights thinks its a little six or a Gt. then Im going to open the exhaust and let her rip. it is going to be sooo funn

    say how long would the V6 to V8 transplant take?

  • Not long at all. The V6 came out with no problem, that is at the time it was new and nothing had rust on it yet. If you had the k member already modified/replaced for use with a 8 cyl, should be a day's work if everything fit properly - exhaust, fuel lines, driveshaft, and motor/trans to body clearance.

  • r u doing it your self bc if your nt tell me where your getting it done bc i also have an 05 n6 and i wanna do the same bt i cant find a place that will do it

  • do it yourself.

  • Brings a tear of joy to my eye.

  • wow that is sooo badass, and sounds just awesome, that customer must have some money to spend...damn

  • lol faspony ricers are dumb but if they hear that thing goin down the road they should be smart enough to know that's no where near stock, GT or V6, and if they're not well then they'll learn ;)

  • smart man ...Tork monster..tork is always before horse power..you dont even need to wait on it.(((it,s there)))and gone...

  • When are we going to see this car taking on some poor unsuspecting rice burner on the street. Love to see that one!

    At least let us see and hear it on the street.

  • lookin good. I did something simular to my ranger. check out DANGER RANGER or WHAT'S UNDER THE HOOD? to see mine.

  • good god man! that thing sounds SICK!!!

  • I should have reviewed the earelier posts.....451 hp......did you ever achieve the 550hp as the motor was advertised?

  • to the ownwer of the car: nicely done. I am assuming this is a stroker small block. Pleas post the details. Is this a roush motor or a ford ford racing crate engine or? Let us know. Its a very well executed install....very snaitary with excellent attention to detail. Transmission and rear end details as well would be great.

  • CORRECTION: That article about the 427 SOHC engine in an 05 GT is in the July 07 issue of 5.0 & super ford magazine.

    I would like a 460 or 427 in my 06 GT, talk about a sleeper!!

  • A guy by the name of Jim Weigle bought a new 05 GT and put a 427 SOHC engine in it. The engine had a duel quad set up and made 662 hp @ 6900 rpms and 545 ft lbs of torque.

    In the July issue of 5.0 Magazine & super fords has an article about this car, check out.

    Too bad Ford doesn't produce a car with a 460 or 427 SOHC or push rod engine. However they do offer the S197 302 boss.

  • my dads friend is putting one of those on his 61' lincoln continental there fuckin badass

  • that is amazing!!

  • SWEEET! :P

  • Hey what intake did you put on it, i want one for my 460, thanks man.

  • i hope to god that isnt the stock drivetrain?

  • ugh i want that car

  • What Engine is that?

  • 460. read the info.

  • Oh yeah, me saying YEAH is not spastic, unless I keep shouting it Lil Jon style and throw in a few aww shit son's in there. Kick yourself in the nuts. I could made it extremely boring and stayed in one spot and said, Hey look a 06 Mustang. OOOOO, AHHHHH! That is all.

  • To the people at DWFSTANGS net, Michigan doesn't have emissions testing thats manditory. It was a few years ago, by few, I mean more than a decade. The whole system was ripped out,including the system under the trunk floor. Then a breather vent tube was welded to the pass. side sending unit and connected to the filler neck. And a vented gas cap was added.

  • yeah that link works fine....great pics. Have any other videos?

  • Here's the link. I have the album posted through photobucket. Go to photobucket and add the following after com. albums/f277/yourmofo/2006%20Mu­stang%20Pics Sorry, YouTube doesn't allow emails or addresses in comments. I forgot. Hopefully this works.

  • My god that's my dream car right there...truely beautiful, you have the link yet? Very interested in seeing more of this bad boy!!

  • damn I am more of a chevy/gm fan but that is one sexy mustang holy shit!! I have a Trans Am I can only hope will look close to that good someday, and for the sound....that motor makes my 305 look like a flippin 4 banger

  • NOW THATS A STANG!!! HOLY SHIT!

  • And why did ford stop making push rod motors?

  • dude holy sh*t, your v6 would kill mine, and i thought mine was badass, how fast does that thing do a quarter?

  • god damn your gay this isnt even a 6er anymore

  • ya i know you fuckin retard, im talking about his change vs stock against my change vs stock, which at stock were once v6s

  • oh yeah cause in your comment you said you did a swap too

  • ya that looks smog legal and shit.......rofl

  • We are in Michigan we dont have emissions testing or safty inspcetions here gotta love the motor city

  • I soon have pics on my MySpace page. I'm going through all of the progress pics during assembly. Link coming soon. Even though the motor had a single dominator carb intake, nothing spells modern day muscle car by adding dual quads.

  • can i have it?...

    good freakin lord.. if i had money.. this is what it would buy me.. that is the nicest sounding, whatever else, mustang i have seen sofar..

    PROPS!!!!

  • how much did that all cost?

  • I think the customer spent around $50,000+, that's with the car.I live near a speed shop and they want us to bring it up there.But I kind of want the customer there to brag his head off.

  • The fuel system is not vented, we vented it to in order to make the fuel return work correctly.Now we figured the remaining gas was going to the passenger side of the tank, instead of the fuel pump side.The tank has a hump in the middle to clear the driveshaft. We should have it figured out in a couple of days.

  • Thanks! We had alot of bugs to work out. The customer took it home and had to bring it back. What happened was when the gas got below 1/4 tank,it would act like it was running out of gas.

  • dude ford needs to take note...that just plain crazy dude. i didnt even think a 460 would fit in these new cars. well done!

  • Awesome! That's how it should have come from the factory. :)

  • ahhh man, that is nice

  • Damn... that's nuts! I love the sound of classic american muscle whether it's a stang, camaro, chevelle or whatever else

  • finally! someone who's not saying chevy over ford or vice versa. You and me think alike. American muscle i the best no matter if it wears a bowtie or a little horsie. Rock on man!

  • Daayyyuuummmm! That is very unique, putting a n old school carbureted BB in an 06. Kunda weird but pretty cool. So, have any HP nubers on it yet?

  • We're still tweaking it on the dyno. So far it's 451hp & 462lbs torque @ the rear tires. It supposed to be a 550hp crate motor - at the flywheel, so the numbers are pretty close, but is always best to get more power. I'm sure the customer wants more. I would too! One can never have enough!

  • Yea, I'd love to hear the cost of this as well.

  • lovin how you can open the dumps like that

  • And THATS the way it should be :)

  • awesome car, i'd love to do something like that except for the whole emissions thing we got here :(

  • holy shit

  • DAMN!!!!

  • man thats bad but i really want to see it on the road fords rule

  • Thats amazing how much did this set up cost
