That's not really a show stopper, should be able to fashion the aspirator fitting to the air intake tube or run a breather filter at the end of the line.

correct, but vacuum can be pulled elsewhere. the 2013 automatic CJ car faced the same issues, but Ford worked around it

sorry for the fuzzy cell pic, I pulled a valve cover and this thing is mint. has some dirt and grime elsewhere; ill clean it up soon and post more pics
Where did you find/buy the motor? I had heard from a buddy that since the 18 body in white car isn't available just yet, teams etc were stripping out GTs. Though I wonder how true that is, figured it would cheaper to gut an ecoboost car to that purpose.
Just about looked new inside.
I spend a lot of time in Canada, and found it when I was in Quebec
yeah, that picture doesn't do it justice, that's how clean this motor is
well that was certainly a good grab!
Just an update looks like I'll be either getting the AEM CD - 7 digital dash for the Holley Digital dash. They both won the can bus connector so I should be able to wire the ECU into the dash for all of my displays. This would be the speedometer tachometer and I think the oil pressure needs an extra accessories but if I can get everything on that 7 inch display that will save me the headache the wiring all of the analog gauges
Badass swap... you gotta start a build thread in P&V!
I'll be following as I wanted to do the same swap a few years from now. Skip the power adders IMO. 2018s are running 11s without much effort? In a Fox body? Probably 10s with any traction. Simple, fast and reliable. Its the perfect setup
old thread but glad i found it, been looking everywhere for this sort of info, not got my engine yet for my swap, but looking at f150 2/4wd 2018, and you seem to have answered a lot of queations i had about 2018 f150 engine, am i right in thinking the cams are different to earlier cams because of the new injection system, guessing the 2018 has the extra lobe on the cam for fuel pump same as the ecoboost engines, or do they do the pump different in the N/A engines, where do i get used gt cams to use, never seem to see any on ebay, will cams, intake and tune get the f150 5.0 upto the power of the mustang, i will be going cat delete as well.
Correct. the gen 2 and gen 3 stock cams are identical in terms of lift and duration, but they are different cam profiles. right now it cost the same to just get the gen 3 stock cams from ford. cam intake header swap with tune will get you to gt level hp
you open yourself to a larger pool of tuners, thus a larger knowledge base. Go with the F150 ECU, and you are limiting yourself to only tuners willing to change the firing order if you decide to swap out the cams. In time this will mean less but at the end of the day, it will prob cost you the same (for example) as 5star tuning would charge you a premium for doing the extra work. mustang ecu would also let you run mass air and more widely embraced by the aftermarket
seems like i need to go mustang ecu, another question, have the 2018 coyotes got a mechanical fuel pump to supply the high pressure new style injectors, and if so, what does it run off, on the ecoboosts it runs off one of the cams, but if you can use the older gt cams in the 2018, i'm guessing its fitted somewhere else or hasn't got that type pump
Gen 1 and 2 cams are interchangeable with each other, but not gen 3
NICE...WHAT IS THAT? and where? the sign behind it looks foreign
