- The buzz about Ford's Eluminator EV Crate Motor package is growling louder than a den of hissing cobras, and people want to know what it takes to install one in their favorite ICE chassis. Look no further.
Our guys, Nate Stewart, Nate Winn, and Jose Martinez, took the experience learned from our development on the Testang and created the first Eluminator-swapped car in the country! Internally nicknamed Judith, she's a beautiful example of what's possible with the Eluminator, and keeps it pure with Ford Electric Power packaged in the iconic S197 Mustang GT chassis.

Freakin sweet.
Yes, yes it is, you should build one.
Oh, hi Zack.
Freaking weird 😂
this is absolutely incredible and exactly what i want to do with my 2008 4.0 s197! pleeeaaaaase keep updating us on this build, and maybe put out a tutorial! i want to do this sooooo badly, maybe theres a way to make it faster!
We will release a more detailed video as soon as we can.
It looks like you'll need to learn how to back half a car 1st bud
Not with the pieces used. It's plenty QUICK enough for almost everyone and it'll get over 100mpgE doing it - engineer your own pieces if it's not quick enough, and learn the difference between "fast" and "quick".
@@AEMpowerTVelectronics with this battery configuration, what would be the miles/charge? also, how would you go about charging at tesla superchargers? is that possible?
What would it take to have a setup that competes with the current GT power? I imagine Ford is thinking about this with the S650 being the last generation of ICE-powered Mustang.
I have a question about this build if you're able to help. I'm potentially planning a similar build with the Eluminator motor. Outside of the motor and Tesla subframe, what's getting the power to the wheels? Mach-E hub, axles, knuckles, etc? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Love the build!
I love this. Enthusiasts gotta get on board with electric swaps and make this more common. Keep us updated on this please.
This is a nice edition to the testang. I also liked roadstercycles 2nd tesla ev swapped s197 he used a model 3/y drive unit in. Lighter cheaper and more easily sourced now that over 2,500,000 model 3&y have been made since 2017.
I'd like to see someone make that setup as a bolt in solution along with aem/Holley high voltage ev swap parts to support the swap.
With well over 1,200,000 total s197s made? I bet if something like that could be made as a true bolt in ev swap?
Maybe with a custom front k tubular member for the epas and to fit a decent sized battery pack underhood?
That could be the ticket for those wanting to keep a mustang with all modern safety features, comfort options plus retain decent tuneability for brakes, wheels, suspension parts, aero kits etc. 🤔
Nice build. What voltage is the motor running at?
I have a Ford escape hybrid i want to convert to fully electric and this is some great info for ideas, thanks yall
Really excited about the eluminator but... since it's up to the user to figure out controls for it and possibly put it into classic cars that never had ABS or traction control I'm surprised there's no mechanical LSD feature in it.
This voltage control module can be used in just about any EV swap?
Gonna need to follow this gonna be my next project
Can 2 eluminators fit in the s197 chassis
That's awesome, an electric steering rack instead of a electric hydraulic pump like on most conversions. Does the VCU200 have much control over this rack? Now all you need is an electric brake booster like the bosch ibooster.
Is this a piggy back ECU isolated from the stock ECU? How are the airbags controlled?
This would be really cool in an MEV Exocet.
What was the final cost of all the parts? I'm thinking about converting my OBS F-150 to electric.
Wonder if they Adapt to 4x4 transmissions, would be a great swap for my bronco
Updated:
The Eluminator is a transverse drivetrain and requires independent suspension. A 4x4 Bronco had a longitudinal drivetrain and solid axles. The Eluminator is not compatible with a longitudinal arrangement. To make an all-wheel drive vehicle, you’d use two separate Eluminators - one in front and one in back - but the back would require independent suspension. But there is no adapting the Eluminator to a transmission because it already has its own gear reduction built inside of it.
We are running a Cascadia Motion motor through the factory transfer case on our Pinzgauer project. The motor's output shaft connects to the t-case in the same fashion that a driveshaft from a transmission does. We've been too busy to get back on it, but will get back on that as soon as we can. You can see the concept in the video we have done though, so please check them out!
@@AEMpowerTVelectronics Wouldn't it be possible to fabricate something to connect to just one side of the eluminator into the transmission (I'm thinking about this for a 65 Mustang). For the not-so-on-board-yet crowd, you'd be sacrificing simplicity for traditionality of driving experience.
I have a focus ST and don’t want to put a new engine in it. I was thinking a dual eluminator swap. What would I need?!
Would like to see a Foxbody Mustang version 👌🤍
I want to do this one day.
Make a kit for the eliminator to fit the rear of a Shelby Cobra kit car.
Did anybody knows if they mention the price and cost?
How much to install into my 99 ranger
For some reason I thought this was a drop-in under-the-hood replacement for a gas motor (in addition to having to find a spot for the batteries, of course). I'm a little disappointed now. I have a '70s Ford that I wanted to plop one of these into some day without a lot of fuss.
Still a neat thing, just not what I thought it was.
Thats bad ass. How much would it cost to have one of these built?
My question exactly!
I've got an 89 Foxbody and I'm on the fence between creating a beefed up Testang or keeping it Ford faithful with their e-crate motor. (I'm told it's significantly more expensive to keep it Ford)
If there was an ev swap that included a small range extender gas/diesel engine, like the BMW I3, that's the swap I'd spend my money on.
are you guys planning to make any kits for other mustangs?
Our kits can be installed in any vehicle using our electronics and these components. We manufacture the electronics controls. We will be releasing a video soon that details the components in our Testang very soon, which provides a relative blueprint for an EV conversion. Hit the bell so you get an alert when it drops!
@@AEMpowerTVelectronics I will be looking forward to that. Would like to convert my s550 to electric!
Need a Foxbody kit
So it's as fast as a stock 3V... I'm underwhelmed
Where's the guide so I can do this to a Ford Mustang????
Where can I hire someone to convert my 73 E300 ambulance? I've been waiting for shops to offer this service.
I want to do this to a 240z.
One to each wheel.
Is anybody using a pair of Eluminators in an AWD conversion? Would be cool.
Has anyone tried this on a Ford Focus?
could this be a beast if you made this car all wheel drive? What would it do at the track?
It's already very spirited, so yes, it would be a monster with a dual motor setup! We look forward seeing someone do a dual-motor Eluminator swap. Supporting two Eluminators would be much easier battery-wise than, say, supporting two Tesla drive units because they only draw 625 Amps, so combined that’s ~1200 Amps. Two Eluminators are basically equivalent to one Sport LDU. The real difficulty is the mechanical work to make a car that’s normally rear-wheel drive also be front-wheel drive.
The ability to run two motors is dependent upon the amperage draw of the motors you use. While there really isn’t a battery that’s appropriate for supporting 2200-2600 Amps required to run two Tesla LDUs, for example, the kWh capacity of the battery (size of the tank) does not determine the discharge current capacity (analogous to fuel pump flow).
@@AEMpowerTVelectronics All wheel drive, would be stupid fast! and we have all done something stupid in our lifetimes... Have you run this car at the track? If so, what times have you recorded?
@@Jacques_Merde We have not run it a the track yet, but we will report back when we do!
Better than mach e
At least he used a Ford motor in a Ford vehicle
ok
WOOOOOOO FIRST !!!
