Final update for the 5.4 3v roush

Minor update on the 5.4 3v Roush Got a front bumper directly from roush took 8-9 months to be made/delivered, fresh laser red paint, also got a set of staggered Japanese kosei roush wheels to go with it had those painted bronze, getting final assembly done now almost ready to get back on the road

Yea with a lift it’s very easy Remove driveshaft, shifter assembly/clutch cable or auto shifter cable off trans Drain engine, trans, power steering, freon, remove battery, front wheels, steering shaft, unhook exhaust at manifolds n at catback Unhook wiring harness connectors at passenger rear of...

Soon.

Got the correct size injectors on it, got the throttle body on it, installed new shocks n struts, bled the brakes, hooked up the amp power wire to a battery in the trunk for now n took it for a drive Pulls great but fuel trims lean out in higher rpm’s definitely could benefit from a tune might...

Got the suspension assembled, sealed up the diff, n replaced the drive shaft u joints. Also got a Honda power steering reservoir with bracket installed in place of the battery tray. Swapped out the front brakes but they fit a bit tight inside the 18s I’m looking at getting some 19s of a 2015 Gt...

The 2v elbow shouldn’t be much of a restriction the mustang throttle body is 70mm I believe the 5.4 3v throttle body is 75mm. I’ve ordered a 75mm throttle body should be here soon also had to find some 21lb/hr ev14 injectors since the only ones I had laying around are 24lb/hr n fuel trims are...

Got the exhaust all done today I got it tucked up tight so hopefully it won’t get dinged up anymore I got the lightning style tips on I think they look pretty good they’re also dual walled so they don’t get too hot to touch Need to finish the suspension/brakes then I can take it for a drive

Some before n after pics of the engine n exhaust. Still need to finish up the rest of the exhaust Also got an x brace off an sn95 convertible from offerup for $20 it fit good just had to modify the front part of it to have it properly bolted on Found a supercharger kit Im going save up for I...

I took this video today after getting the vacuum leak fixed, rear o2s, n x pipe installed. Still have not finished both tailpipes Once I get the exhaust all done I’ll get a better video n rev it up

Found my vacuum leak i accidentally drilled too far on the passenger side when I was drilling out a hole to install a freeze plug to close the vacuum port for the evap purge valve hose on the 5.4 manifold. Ended up plugging it from underneath as well runs a lot better no dtcs so far after...

Got the cats on with the front o2s installed also got the radiator on there n filled it with water, filled the engine with oil n it started up after a few tries. It’s definitely got a vacuum leak at the bottom of the intake manifold not sure if it’s a port I forgot to plug off or if there’s any...

Got it together for the most part. Ended up using the 1/2” k member spacers. I was able to reuse the mustang heater hoses with some small modifications. The intake tube n air filter fit perfect even around the strut tower brace. Also got the oil cooler mounted n plumbed. Waiting on new rad...

Got the wiring done. Also swapped the iac for a crown Vic one it holds the connector out straight facing the throttle body instead of pointing it upwards towards the hood. Got all the accessories on n belt installed. Also got the fuel rail held down n extended wiring for the cam sensor, dpfe...
