[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15619498, member: 166576"] The S550 Coyote Shortblocks are tough, much better rods than the S197 Coyote. The current Mustang is a GREAT heir to the Mustang legacy. With the right mods visually they look mean AF. A few mods and these auto S550 Coyotes are absolutely savage come performance wise. Super charger, TB, intake and injectors should swap over easily enough. You'll need the rest of a Whipple S550 kit (VMP) to complete the swap. Upgraded CV Axles, drive shaft etc etc. You wouldnt be THAT far off depending on finances. BUT It will never be a Shelby. Even the current Shelby American Super Snakes... they dont have that same magic as a Flat Rock, MI produced Shelby car. Only do it because you want the challenge of a new build and or you want an automatic. 6R80 swaps for our GT500s got A TON easier with the Quick Shift 6 from US Shift though. Id keep my Shelby... I almost had a chance at an S550 on Ford's nickle... but I couldnt give Scarlett up. Glad I didnt! Maybe post over in the S550 section and see what they think. [/QUOTE]
