I love his approach to a modified dash/console, and the coyote ain't too bad either. Wish there was a better picture of how/what he did for a radiator.

Geez what a nice job. I imagine cooling the Coyote is not a huge problem as these new engines are so efficient. I had a NAPA store pull a stock radiator for the Mustang GT 4.6 I was putting in my 61 Unibody. The box was so light that I thought it might be empty. It was a mostly plastic thing that didn't look like it would cool anything. I didn't use it. There is also a guy here who just finished a 1946 Chev. pick with a coyote in it. Thats a fairly narrow front end and he has no cooling problems.

Very nicely done. I'm a big fan of these 5.0 Coyote's. I have one in my 2015 F150 and like it much better than my last three Ego-Boosts. Even the lower compression truck motor makes 385 horsepower and 387 ft. lbs. of torque (upgraded to 395 horsepower and 400 ft. lbs. of torque for 2018)

Looks like the left side of the dash is from a 65 mustang.
