2005 Mustang with 5.4L 3v Engine - First Run

This is my 2005 Ford Mustang that I put a 5.4L 3v engine from an F150 in. Before that, it was a supercharged 4.0L V6 with heads and cams putting down 440 RWHP. Within the next few weeks, it'll be getting a twin turbo setup from Jim @ Turbo Horsepower, so it won't stay N/A for long...

The turbos have been installed for a few weeks now. Check out my newer videos.

As far as I know, there is no way to make the V6 PCM work. I used a V8 PCM (from an 06 GT). Doug at BamaChips even tried to make the V6 PCM work (so PATS would work), but it was a no-go.

@cabuzzi I was just thinking of doin the 5.0 Coyote swap to my 2006 V6 mustang, is there any videos of the swap you were talkin about? Do you know any details about the swap?

@Texarmageddon

Lockouts are for aggressive cams. If you stick with stock cams, you will not need them, regardless of HP.

I purchased the first engine from Certified Auto Recyclers. The guys are great. The first engine had a broken starter bracket. They shipped me another one free-of-charge. I think the guy you’d want to talk with is Roy… IIRC. I purchased everything I needed to build up that block from MMR, but had multiple problems with the heads (3 engine failures before the cause was figured out). MMR has since replaced the engine with a forged 1000 HP shortblock with warranty.
