I saw your pictures on the Ecoboost swap thread. I am very excited to see where it goes. I have two main questions. First, do you plan on keeping the stock turbos or go with something else? Second, if you are using the stock turbos, how well do they fit between the frame rails?

I am leaving the engine and turbos stock with a mild tune. I am thinking 390-400hp and 450ftlb + should run pretty good.
The turbos have plenty of room between the frame rails, the left side turbo exhaust is tight to the firewall which will be modified.

Beechy,
Thanks for the tutorial I will give try when I get home from skiing.

That is good to hear. I am planning on that swap into a 67 Cougar. I have looked at the frame rail measurements, and the measurements of the engine, and it seems like it might be a little tight. I am glad to hear to the contrary, and I really look forward to your build.

Process has been slow but study due to my work schedule but things are starting to slow down so I will be out of excuses. I did get tired of crawling under the car so went out and finally bought a rotisserie, should have done it when I started the project.
