Interesting Swap - Ford DOHC into MCoupe

[dmenheere]

Found this by accident ... didn't think that engine would be even close to fitting in there.

ehh I don't know if would trade a S50B32 for ford V8 :embarrasm

Like it or not, the man did it. My hat's off to him whoever he is.

[stowe9man]

That is s 32 valve motor which I think came only on the SVT cars and the Mach 1. Could you imagine an M Coupe with a shaker hood? LOL!

[rao]

I don't know why that motor would not be a good choice if it fits.

Personally I like the LSx motors better, but there is nothing wrong with that motor.

[xjeeper]

Those motors are fucking bad ass!!!!!!!!! All aluminum DOHC 4 valve V8. These respond to boost like you would not believe!

Gah, that guy needs to fix his photobucket!

[Pzary3233]

yeah really... need some pictures!

[PJ325i]

I think he sold the car or the motor . . . I can't remember which was done. But he did a fine job fitting everything.
