[QUOTE="americansteel, post: 13775710, member: 149471"] nice write up. but little problem. I know that if you swapped a 5.0 coyote with the factory mustang control pack/PCM the PCM would shut off because of it being so smart that if one reading of the PCM does not read a certain calibration the PCM would shut off or go to limp mode. this is why ford made the control pack for swaps with the coyote motor. now the coyote uses a copperhead PCM but I don't know if the truck eco boost or even the truck 5.0 could use factory PCM with out the issues that the mustang PCM would have. I swap 6.2l's in older mustangs, crown vic's and trucks but I don't even bother with factory PCM for the 6.2l I use 2000-03 PCM for the swaps with new custom wire harness for the sensors and stuff, im not a tuner I build engines but I have a guy next my shop he is a tuner I get information from him about computer's but I may be wrong about the PCM's i was told the 5.0 copperhead PCM is a nightmare and not worth the time to swap because of interface calibrations.
