He doesn't seems to do much reviews on highly modified cars. Lastly I biffed the car on a cement barrier and the shell is destroyed. The motor will live in in another chassis though
I think I've rewound this about 30 times already. Totally legit working man's hotrod. Forgot how good the early foxbodies looked, especially the Capri! Way to take what you've got and make it as awesome as you can.
Well I just over a week it will be going in for Dyno tuning. I'll post another video of it getting tuned and hopefully some decent hp numbers. I am hoping for anything above 250whp and 350 torques
Yeah I also have gotten bored of the we just bought a lot of expensive parts and just bolted them on builds. It's like david freiburger said. "Don't get it right. Just get it running and then deal with all the small things.
I've always wondered what a ford v10 would sound like when tuned in a street car. This video is my answer. Great job guys on this! I love that 80-90s style with a touch of modern mods.
When you have no regard for cost effectiveness but want all the torque and a totally badass unique car, you truck v10 swap a foxbody. This is the kind of build i would beeline past aventadors, gt3s, and turbo s550s to come check out
Some Ford engineers made a 5.8 V10 to put in a new edge as an outside of work project. Basically made of 1 off castings. Basically a 4.6 4 valve with 2 extra cylinders. And it sounds amazing lol
I have an ‘89 Ford LTD Station wagon and I also recently bought a 2000 Excursion with the 6.8. Been really intrigued by the V10 and looking at potential performance options, and then started pipe dreaming about swapping the small block wagon to a V10. Got to looking and this is the best video I’ve found so far that had an engine swap. Engine sounds amazing and the whole concept of swapping in Ford-built V10 is just so badass.
That is so much more awesome than the 6.8 lump in the F-450 I drive at work. Lol Didn't even realize you were from BC at first, something about the way you two speak just sounded too familiar not to be here. Lol
Hey I see BC plates there, i'm in BC too. I have a 3 valve V10 I want to swap into my old truck. I didn't think there was any aftermarket way to run the ignition... so this is all very interesting.
Lots of options for ignition control. I went megasquirt ms3x running wasted spark. If I could go it again I would use the mspro as it have ten output for ignition and injection. So a little easier
i love the no f's given filming style lol people are too picky anymore awesome video by the way. have always questioned this since dad drove an Econoline for the longest time. also being a foxbody owner im digging the goofy looks!
@@Nodarperformance Nothing wrong with that lol. I myself drive a mod motor in one of the last V8 Interceptors. But I don't think its quite as fast as yours
love it man, good job! i almost went MS on my #v10bumpside, but decided to stick with stock ECM for now.....may have to change that up down the road with boost. glad to see another v10 swap on YT!
@@markbuster7140 I doubt it. The motor.is now discontinued as the new 7.3l push rod will replace this and the V10 will be forgotten like the Dodge truck v10. The non viper V10 they made
Man, just listening to this thing go left me breathless! I've always daydreamed about v10 Fox. On a scale of 1 - 10, how much would you recommend anyone attempts this swap?
The front portion of the car, to the rear of the doors is a Mustang. From there back it is Capri with fender flares, rear quarter window trim, tail lights etc. The Capri never had a grille or front side marker lights as shown
@@Nodarperformance yeah, I see it now, the aftermarket flare on the fender lip kind of disguises it, the flat black paint hides the body line at the angle it is shot at.
Sadly I went little too hard on the throttle pedal and wrote the car off. The next chassis that gets the engine won't likely have the itbs. Maybe just two big throttle bodies.
@@Nodarperformance sorry to hear that, I saw the video of it getting towed onto the flat bed earlier today. That is one mad Max v10 lmao. Hope to see the next build up and running soon eh
I have questions: Is it a stock 6.8? Did you make your own exhaust or buy a system that doesn't lead to a y-pipe? What was your ECU set up like? (also any electronic info would be cool making the engine work with the chassis) debating doing this swap if my coyote ever blows
Modified the oem cast manifolds. Ecu is a mega squirt ms3x. Running wasted spark for the ignition. The motor has a slight bump in compression but is most stock internally.
What’s the highest RPM reached in this video? Sounds like 4800-5300? I’m trying to increase the RPM capability of my swap project, to get an Audi-like V10 tone. Needs to hit ~6500, but even with beehive springs I’m floating valves at 6200 or so.
@@Nodarperformance Mine is a 3V. I am looking into a set of custom cams, need to figure out best specs (copy 5.4 profile?). I have a set of aluminum forged rods & pistons already in it, plus a Paxton from an F-body in place of AC for 10-15psi on the top end. All this still far cheaper (and more potent) than an R8/S8 swap!
Nah. This motor makes more torque and if I put cams in it would have more hp. I have no love for the coyote V8. It's neat but too damn wide. I started this project with the intent of swapping one in but gave up due to amount of extras I had to buy to have a clean install.
I know this car is dead and gone, but rear end was in that? did it still have the 7.5 inch with 2.73:1 gears or did you put an 8.8 in it with the more normal 3.08:1 gears? When I had the 7.5 my 351W T5 in 1st gear would idle at like 12 mph... when I put the 8.8 in it was actually drivable and hella fast. She was ugly as sin, but there wasn't a car out there I was afraid of. 0-100 Nobody took that car, which was great for screwing around on the street.
We used a recordable speaker and used a sound clip of the new Ford door chime. That door chime was always the least annoying for me for whatever reason.
It was a stock cam but I look at apocalypse motors. I paid for them to make me a cam and by the looks of it they did a small run so you might be able to get one a bit quicker than it took me
I cut open the harnessm reused the factory connectors and used new wire from diyautotune. It has labels printed on the wires and then just ran the wires where they needed to go on the ECU and relay board. It was pretty simple. Seemed easier and have more potential for power then the factory ecu
I know this is an older video, but I have a 1979 Mercury Zephyr and I've always thought of doing the 6.8 swap. Was it just a modular K member to get it installed? What did you need to do to get a manual hooked up to it?
I used a modular swap k member. You will have to go manual brakes or hydroboost brake booster for it to fit. I used a t45 tranny and is pretty simple if you keep it all cable driven
@@Nodarperformance ok, so I guess I'm wondering how different it is from a 4.6/5.4 swap. I've been collecting stuff to do a mod swap for a while now but wasn't sure what all was different with a V10 regarding fitment and wiring
What’s the RPM limit? Also while the width and height are identical to the 5.4 V8 (not including intakes) the 6.8 is around 4” longer than the 5.4 having the extra length between the motor mounts and bellhousing meaning the transmission would be moved backwards around the same 4”.

It's interesting no almost went coyote swap before this engine. Rpm limit is kinda unknown but max power in stock form is at around 4200 rpm. So it's got lot of room to improve. For fitting the engine I got a grinder and a welder
