    Default Project NoPulp - V2

    Hello! I wanted to start a fresh build thread for V2 of Project NoPulp. I figured people would be interested in my process of coyote swapping, so I’ll do my best to document it.

    A bit of a summary of V1 – the car was purchased as a father-son project in Feb 2007, I was 12 years old at the time. The idea was to do something a bit different. We ended up rebuilding the entire car and swapped a 4.2 V6 from a F150 and supercharged it using the M112 from a cobra.

    I did a more in depth write up on Speedhunters:
    http://www.speedhunters.com/2016/06/...-kind-mustang/

    Here’s just a few photos of the build to give you an idea.

    I guess the question is why V2 now? Well the engine blew. Thankfully it happened at a track and it could easily be dealt with, damage being isolated to just the engine. I hate doing repairs, but very much enjoy doing upgrades which I now have the opportunity to do. I would like to do something unique again, but the only regret I have with the previous build was not driving it enough. While it ran good, it always had some quirks which is expected. I wanted to do a setup that would provide great power, reliability and drivability. There was really very little debate on going with a coyote swap, so here we go!

    I currently have a coyote swap kit – pretty much the entire mustang GT minus the body, rear end, interior and suspension. This kit however is for my dad’s 56 ford, which will also be receiving a coyote swap. I’ll be using it to test fit some components like the getrag transmission before ordering what I need. I have also received all the Maximum Motorsports front suspension componets to make the swap happen – tubular k-member, coilover kit for my tokico struts, tubular A arms, and bump steer kit.

    The first step was to remove all the old components and start from scratch.

    Please go big NA!

    You can do the voodoo heads and top end kit for 540bhp+!

    Or stock coyote heads with the cobra jet IM and goodies. Should be tickling 500hp.

    It’s going in a SN95 chassis. Turbos will be too much for it.

    I’m all for big power mind you. Voodoo heads and turbo. 8000rpm still! Lol.

    Lots of turbo Foxes/SN95s out there without any issues. But of course I am bias!

    Just focusing on a simple swap for now. 300whp to 400whp will be a nice increase. Maybe look at doing boost down the road, but just some bolt ons for the upcoming future.

    You get what you pay for. The On3 kits do look like they can be okay with some upgraded parts - still annoying to buy a kit and have to replace a bunch of it.

    You don’t need to upgrade anything with an On3 kit. But if you want custom and something cheaper, see Dario at Infamous Auto.

    400+whp on E85. Not that I know of anyone selling ethanol... cough...

    N/A is way cooler anyway. Turbos are played out, nothing quite like screaming a N/A V8.

    I've got a buddy running a twin set on his built coyote pushing almost 800 wheel. Works flawlessly.

    Tore apart the old engine.

    The pistons and connecting rods broke in the rear 2 cylinders. My best guess is the connecting rods broke, which is a weak point. The piston pins were still attached to the connecting rod. The pistons were shattered. Other than the hole in the side it did minimal damage. There's a couple little nicks on the head. The cylinders are oddly clean, no gouges and only a bit of minor scoring in one cylinder. The crank seemed clean, would have to pull it out to see for sure. I'll also need to pull the cam to see if its damaged.

    So coyote swap was abandoned... The getrag wasn't going to work. Adding up the cost of a t56 plus all the little items along the way wasn't going to be cost effective. I also ended up buying a house.

    So doing a SBF!
    Ended up finding a pair of mustangs for a good deal. Pulled the parts off to do the swap.

    Once I had the engine torn down and began parts shopping, ended up finding another engine with a built top end already. So bought that to save some money. I do have a volvo wagon that could eventually use the other block...

    Went with an explorer intake and have been doing so light porting/clean up. I'm almost ready to start assembling everything again.

    IMG_20191124_142253 by Richard Brown, on Flickr

    IMG_20191125_162702 by Richard Brown, on Flickr

    Soon I'll get the suspension bolted up on the car and be able to move it to my house... once I dig it out.

    IMG_20190629_144336 by Richard Brown, on Flickr

    I also sold my Work wheels since they won't fit around the coilovers. Went with a GT350R style wheel in liquid graphite. Very excited to get these on the car!

    Been busy... crazy busy with work and now I'm also trying to build a detached garage. Fun Fun Fun!

    Second engine wasn't the best. It was bored 60 over, not desirable - also the crank was not in great shape. Not blaming seller, but disappointed in the quality of the reman. So taking the good parts off that engine and going back to the first engine.

    Good news was that it had a more aggressive cam than what the seller told me it had

    I've received pretty much every part I need. I've been busy cleaning everything up - smoothing/mild porting the intake and heads.

    I'm using the trickflow SN95 elbow. Anyone wondering on fitment on the explorer intake, i did need to do a few modification. I'd like to give trickflow the benefit of the doubt on fitment for their application, but this also isn't an uncommon setup...

    First, the finish inside the elbow wasn't ideal. For a "made in USA" product, it seemed more china made looking. So I smoothed that out.

    IMG_20200222_100632 by Richard Brown, on Flickr

    IMG_20200222_103941 by Richard Brown, on Flickr

    Second, the hardware included was only studs for the throttle body side. I had to pull the studs from my old intake and install them on the new one. When I put the elbow on there was no was a nut was going to fit on the top left... so I had to grind a good chunk off. I'm assuming trickflow has special hardware included on their intake? I don't know there was done of material there, no need to have it so tight.
    The bottom right stud is also a bit too long - it doesn't interfere, but this nut will need to go on first.

    Overall it will work and looks good.

    IMG_20200222_103955 by Richard Brown, on Flickr




    Done making a mess now. Did a final clean of the shop and once I do a final clean of the parts assembly will begin!!

    I don't have a cfd model handy, but isn't that surface roughness NBD for airflow at these pressures?

    No matter what, your shit is Awsome and I love it.
