Orange 94 Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 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/orange-no-pulp-different-kind-mustang/speedhunters mustang by Richard Brown, on Flickr Here’s just a few photos of the build to give you an idea.3.3 by Richard Brown, on Flickr1 by Richard Brown, on Flickr7 by Richard Brown, on Flickr8 by Richard Brown, on Flickr9 by Richard Brown, on Flickr10 by Richard Brown, on Flickr11 by Richard Brown, on Flickr Finished Result:NoPulp by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_5113 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_5126 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_5160 by Richard Brown, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange 94 Posted November 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 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!IMG_4509 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_4512 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 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.IMG_0984 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_0987 by Richard Brown, on Flickr The first step was to remove all the old components and start from scratch.IMG_0989 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_0998 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_0995 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_1000 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_0994 by Richard Brown, on Flickr Then the old suspension.IMG_1006 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_1005 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_1004 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_1003 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_1002 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_1001 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 It definitely sucks big time that the motor blew, but at least you have some real carnage to show, lol. That's a nice sized hole there. Your car has always been one of the most dramatic before/after photos in the sn95 game. Can't wait to see it with 2 added cylinders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeahloh95 Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 yes that will be very cool with a coyote in there I plan to add one to my 95 once I get the one in my truck all done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange 94 Posted November 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 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. 2017-11-29_04-53-21 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 2017-11-29_04-53-04 by Richard Brown, on Flickr Pixel 2 by Richard Brown, on Flickr Pixel 2 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 2017-11-29_04-52-29 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 2017-11-29_04-52-39 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 2017-11-29_04-52-13 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 2017-11-29_04-51-58 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 2017-11-29_04-51-33 by Richard Brown, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange 94 Posted December 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2019 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.IMG_8814 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_8816 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_20190911_200138 by Richard Brown, on Flickr00100dPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190915190438294_COVER by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_20190916_194201 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 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...IMG_20191012_112146 by Richard Brown, on Flickr00100dPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20191123085446116_COVER by Richard Brown, on Flickr Went with an explorer intake and have been doing so light porting/clean up.

Went with a GT350R style wheel in liquid graphite.

Orange 94 Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 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 :) IMG_20200105_130707 by Richard Brown, on Flickr I've received pretty much every part I need. I've been busy cleaning everything up - smoothing/mild porting the intake and heads. IMG_20200105_130711 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_20200222_092010 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_20200222_092024 by Richard Brown, on FlickrIMG_20200222_091944 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 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_100623 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 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.

Did a final clean of the shop and once I do a final clean of the parts assembly will begin!!IMG_20200222_124155 by Richard Brown, on Flickr 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
