What's up fellow SVTP members! Welcome to the new Coyote Swapped forum.
This journey began back in early 2023 when I was itching for more power our of my 93. After a month of debating I decided to go with a Gen 3 Coyote crate engine - Christian at Power by the Hour made the fulfillment of the key essentials easy to locate as well. This is also when I met Zack (@poisoned apple), a fellow 00R owner with a red 93 Cobra wanting to do a similar swap that had the same attention to detail that I did. A handful of messages later we decided to go down this path together and document our projects to help others demystify the swap.
In this build thread you'll see my goal was to preserve as much of this low mileage (21,000) mile 93 Cobra as possible during the swap - this meant creative ways to avoid drilling into the car as well as hiding as much of the Swiss cheese already in the engine bay.
I'll use this thread to highlight information about this project and update with additional detailed information over time. Hopefully this inspires you and provides confidence that you too can do it!
Detailed overview of the build (will update as project build continues):
- 1993 Cobra (exactly 21K miles at time of swap)
- Gen 3 Coyote Crate with FRPP Control Pack (Manual), CMCV removed
- TKX (18085), FRPP TKX bell housing, SN95 clutch fork, FRPP adj. clutch cable, quadrant, MM firewall adapter, McLeod Super Street 11" clutch, MGW TKX shifter
- Sanden SD7 AC (Fathead Garage hidden accumulator/lines)
- 03 Hydroboost, Mod motor Power Steering pump with AN fittings (Jarvis Beaver custom AN lines)
- Power by the Hour Coyote Swap brackets (Alternator/Power Steering Pump)
- 3.73s, Eaton TrueTrac, FRPP cover
- Body harness wire tuck
- Retain all factory gauges
- MM Coyote Swap K-Member, Bilstein Coil Overs, CC plates, bump steer, steering shaft, solid steering rack spacers
- Kenny Brown subframe/matrix, Kenny Brown lower control arms, Kenny Brown Panhard bar.
- 5 lug Ford MotorSport axles/bracket conversion, 1994-1995 front spindles
- Cobra R wheels and calipers
- Custom splitters fabricated by Carter's Customs
Below are a few pictures of the progress along the way… More updates to come soon
