- In this video I show you how much it costs to put a coyote engine into your classic mustang, Cougar, Fairlane, Maverick, Falcon, or F100. I provided a link to a spreadsheet that you can download to help you with planning your build.

Thank you for taking the time to build the spreadsheet. That is very helpful!
Excellent spreadsheet very well done
I am glad you like it! I hope it is useful to you
Very cool of you to put this out there
Thanks! Its a great visual to help people budget and plan
Very cool. Thanks for sharing this. I had started a similar worksheet but this one has a better organization. I may extend my copy to include other expenses - such as teardown and build up (body work, paint, wiring, etc) as if you were doing a resto. Maybe break it out in to different tabs to show phases. I also think your pricing is pretty much dead on and realistic. The sheet options are great and I can extend to include other variations of engine selection for comparison - such as V6 or the F150 version coyote. I also like the MTF subframe options instead of the Schwartz (although I can agree the Schwartz appears to be the pinnacle high end option).
That is a great idea. I may adjust it to have different tabs. thanks for the suggestion.
I would RE up load. Voice is very low and sound.
Yea, I am still learning this video editing thing. Thanks for the letting me know. I probably wont take it down, but definitely something to improve on for future videos.
Great video! I wish I had this 7 months ago. I could have gone with a coyote swap in my 67 convertible instead of building a new 302.
Thank! Are you doing EFI with your 302?
Yes, I’m going with a Holley Sniper EFI setup.
That is such a beautiful car!!
Thank you so much
41k for a coyote swap I did an LS swap on my c10 like 6years ago when you can get a junkyard engine with trans and harness for 800$ plus 1k for hp tunners and 500$ for a gasket set to reseal your engine puts you around 2,500$ for a swap of course if you do it yourself
Have a 72 Grande with wishful thinking, THANK YOU!!
You bet!
Awesome video! Now you gotta get you another RX7 like the one you used to have and do the same!
I miss the RX7! Maybe one day I will get another one.
Like the Ring Bros F100 pic. Saw that at the WI Dells car show a couple years ago and it is awesome.
thanks! that is a really cool build! Anything the ring brothers touch is absolutely incredible
@@arobsgarage6672 that is true
Ace vid!! So Professional. A real thinking man's hot rodder.
Hello ARob! This video is a God send. Appreciate your work for the spreadsheet and drop down menus for other parts that might be need! I have a classic 67 Mustang Gt S-code Coupe currently with a Ford 460 mild build engine. Was a full blown 8 sec race car (not this motor in it) so suspension brakes, exhaust, etc is good to go. Will have to cut the shock towers (should have done that already for the 460) and that should bring the $9600 down considerably. Was also thinking of a 7.3 Godzilla swap but that would be alot more. Thanks again for this awesome video. Cheers from Motown/Dearborn
Glad it worked for you but an enormous miss here is wiring. You will need significant assistance here.
Depends. Wiring just for the coyote swap is pretty limited if you are using a control pack. But if you are using a stock computer and harness, then yes.
Very cool walk through
Great info. Thank you for sharing
I'm at about 10k with my bronco. 4k for low milage 2nd gen coyote and 6r80. 2k control pack. 1200 fuel. Radiator and fan 250, exhaust 400, adapter to transfer, 600, driveshafts 900, intake about 50, etc I'm sure another 200.
Its hard to do Coyotes on limited budget. but so worth it!!
It shouldn’t matter what it cost Because you’re getting the best of everything
My man
Great video & sheet! Thank you for sharing.
Im trying to swap everything from a 97 cobra or something similar into my 66 thunderbird
That sounds like a fun project! something different!
Quick question does the doug's headers work on a 69 mustang with the aje k member??
Is there a v6 that would work well for this kind of upgrade? Now that I am old am not impressed with an overpowered mustang. 60 years ago this would have been huge to me.
Alrighty then, the old 302 with heads it is. ☹️
Coyote swaps are expensive! a lot of people don't understand all the supporting mods needed for this swap! It can be done for less that 10K but not much less.
Looking good Rob
thanks bud!
Why don’t you include body restorations? Rust dents paint etc?
Nice build! What pedals and master cylinders did you use?
Great video
Man I need some insight before I get started on this project!
Is there anyway I can get some personal advice from you?? Bout to pick me up a 66
Great video! (Voice is bit low) I am about to do this job for my 69 fastback.
Any recommendation when it comes to the engine?
gen1 or 2? - I am getting a donor car.
I just want to make my life easier by picking the right one. (don't care about the power that much)
I have heard that the Gen 2's are actually the best. I have heard some people are having issues swapping their gen 3's
I wish you luck man!! It's my dream project to put a coyote into my dream car a '69 fastback!!! Have fun!
I like my gen 2, and comes with more power than a gen 1. I used a f150 coyote and it's pretty nice
Really appreciate the video and effort put into this. I was wondering if I could get the excel spreadsheet you have, unfortunately the link is not working for me
send me you email and I will email to you
Great video. However, you need to work on the sound quality...
Yes i do. I know that is an issue. still trying to get used to this video editing stuff
Voice volume sucks gotta fix that man
Super helpful! Thanks! I'm hoping to start my coyote swap project soon. Would you have any recommendations on where to pick up a used coyote? I really don't need a transmission with it but all I'm seeing is 6.5k+ on cost
Honestly I would check junk yards. I got mine from LKQ. Remember you can even get them out of the V8 F150's starting in 2011. The truck motors are much cheaper and basically the same motor.
@@arobsgarage6672 awesome! Thanks!
How possible is it to swap out the front end components/drivetrain from a 1st gen f150 into a old Ford? Maybe rear end aswell?
It is very possible. It takes a lot of work and unfortunately a lot of money as well. The major interference is the shock towers. They either need to be notched or completely removed which means your front suspension needs to be updated as well. Rear end is possible, you would need to have the rear end shortened and new brackets welded on for what ever rear suspension type you choose.
Don't forget tuning.
Yes! very important. what do you say, another $800 for tuning?
Should have LS that stang, I did and it's a much better and less expensive motor swap.
no thanks. Nothing worse than walking by a beautiful muscle car and seeing another LS swap. over done and boring at this point
@@arobsgarage6672 I just like the better ls engine.
Coyote swap is a great idea .
Cost is a poor excuse for doing a ls transvestite swap.
As much as I appreciate builders keeping their builds within the brand, I do understand the cost portion of it. In the end, its your car. you can do what you want to it.
@@arobsgarage6672 that would be true if it really was about cost but it tends to be about being ignorant I've talked to enough Chevy fanboys who do everything they can to talk s*** about other brands
What happen to us Galaxie guys!!!!
Yea, I forgot to include you guys!
I’m doing a Coyote swap on my 61 Continental and it’s nowhere near $41,000!! Lol
How much did it cost lol 2 years later
@@rontezbeasley8613it’s prob closer to $20K after all said and done.
Hello I want to buy a replica shell and build it from scratch. Any idea what that would cost with a gen3 engine?
there’s a lot of factors. depending on the body you use, your suspension setup, etc etc. if you’re looking for a clean, complete setup, i’d expect to pay $70k-$100k for the entire build. that’s with an assumption of using a front/rear suspension setup (about $6k) brakes ($4k) the body ($20k+) your whole powertrain including wiring harnesses, pedals, motor accessories, Id say about $15k-$20k. It may differ depending on what you feel like doing, but we just did a build similar to what you’re describing in a 67 shell, with a gen 3 with a 10 speed auto, turbo kit, the works and he paid about $143k but also got a bunch of stuff you probably wouldn’t need/want.
Audio mixed to quiet
Parts between $10k and $41k+, Labor estimate double parts cost
That is why I do everything myself. I have the time to do it myself, I dont have the money to pay someone else to do it.
Don’t buy the nice Schwartz chassis for $18,000.00. You will save a bundle on that.
@@myoneblackfriend3151 agreed!
....Roush 347 crates go for about 10k....just saying
My mind went reeeeeed robbit, yummm..
when you said robbit hole. Lol even tho I know its red robbin.
Hahah!!!
Why not use a dart ford small block?
Because I really like these Coyote motors. I have wanted one for a long time.
You have to boost your mic. Or is it to far from your mouth or voice box.
yea, I have some improvements to make when it comes to doing audio
@@arobsgarage6672 There are people on you tube will help you in any way. Start a patreon to raise some money to buy what you need but I liked your video.
I wonder why anybody would do this to a classic/vintage Mustang. Seems rather stupid to do so. I have a fully restored, red/with black interior, '66 "K" code Mustang 2+2 fastback and I'd never even consider doing this swap to it. It's value is over $100k as it is. Modding it like this would decrease it's value.
on something like yours it would not make sense because of the rarity of your car. But an A code or C code, it actually increases the value significantly.
@@arobsgarage6672 A or C code engine Mustang, I still would not do this swap. Maybe to a coupe but never to a 2+2 fastback.
@@sergeantmasson3669 and that’s what I’m going to do with my ‘65; fastback and coyote swap.
Hello... engine+transmission (MARS) + front and rear suspension (rodaster shop), more or less $ 12K?
Are you asking if you can get all this for less that $12k? If so, Yes you can get the engine, trans, front and rear suspension for less than $12k. but you start adding supporting parts like clutch, ecu, exhaust, Radiator, and everything else it takes to make the car run, no. your looking closer to $20k.
Why not just buy the whole mustang that comes with the coyote LOL?
Cause it doesn’t look as good
auuuuuuudddddiooooooo audio checkkkkkkkkk
So in other words it's cheaper to LS swap it.
Yes it is. Motors are cheaper and much more available. They have been around a lot longer so the supporting mods and replacement parts are cheaper as well. Also the LS is narrow enough you dont need to cut the shock towers out which also allows you to keep your front suspension
@@arobsgarage6672 oh thanks man 80k plus it's bit much. I don't have the time to be working on the car or to learn build it, preferred to pay someone else I'm going after i do some research on LS swap. lol
Cant hear you.
yea, i am still trying to figure out how to adjust the volume during editing.
Sorry I can't lip read
my volume settings are jacked up, i know. it will get better with other videos.
