I have been wondering where the coyote builds are? I know FFR has yet to incorporate the use of the motor in the MK4 but I know there has to be someone working on it. Any one?

P.S Superformance has one.

Mine will be in running order in about 10 days, and the body is at the painter's now. The techie stuff is in my blog http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/blog.php?26-oldguy668

Cool, what was the fitment ? i bet it is a tight fit. it should be quite a powerplant in these cars, considering its just shy of the old 427 power. With a tune and the headers you will be right at 450-470hp @7200 rpm ;)

Light at the end of the tunnel! What painter are you using?

A new and exspensive motor, it'll take awhile before these become commonplace builds.

I took it to JB Auto Body in Salisbury. He's done a really nice prep job and now it's sitting while I make up my mind on the finish.

Its a shame if this engine doesn't become commonplace. The old 5.0 is A great engine but this one leaves it behind on all levels. I hope FF implements this soon for my build.
