Prepping for First Start Part 4 - Foxbody Restomod Part 99 - Lets test this fuel pump and make sure we have enough pressure to fire up the coyote. We went with a 340lph Aeromotive fuel pump and adjustable regulator setup with 6AN feed and return lines. It's time to fill up the tank for the first time in over 20 years and send some juice to the relay to see if we can make some pressure.
Vevor hooked us up again! Today we're checking out the HD-10 rotational welding positioner tool from Vevor. This product was given to me free of charge by Vevor in exchange for my honest review. If you are new to my reviews, I try to show you how the tools work and might feel in your hands so you can make a better decision about buying it. Hit me up if you have any questions I didn't answer about it.
Prepping for First Start Part 3 - Foxbody Restomod Part 98 - Installing the Ford Performance PCM kit for my coyote swap. Wiring this thing up is gonna be super easy! ... or is it?
Prepping for First Start Part 2 - Foxbody Restomod Part 97 - In this video I installed the factory Coyote mini starter motor and wired it up. The order of operations is a bit screwed up on this coyote swap but I'm confident we can get to where we need to be. The oil leak persists and is still a problem though.
Prepping for First Start - Foxbody Restomod Part 96 - In this video I tightened the exhaust bolts and re-torqued the intake back down. I also prepped the fuel line connection to the engine, replaced the cracked T-hose and filled it up with engine oil. Hey we hit a new milestone, first oil leak in over 20 years!
I accidentally bought the wrong bolt chamfer tool, but sent it anyway to see how bad it would be. This tool relies on friction and sucks. I wasted my own money on this and am not sponsored. If there's a use for this, please let me know in the comments.
Installing the Alternator - Foxbody Restomod Part 95 - In this video, I spend an obscene amount of time shortening a bolt to install the alternator, actually install the alternator, install one of the serpentine belts, install the plug on the side of the oil pan that is for a low oil sensor (I'm not using it), an oil filter, and some other stuff. Lots of talking in this one, sorry, skip around if you want.
Coyote Engine Install Part 3 - Foxbody Restomod Part 94 - Finally putting an engine in this car after over 20 years. Will it go as planned? Spoiler alert, yep. Went right in. We did have to figure a few things out like putting the driver's side header on first but otherwise the whole thing didn't take much time at all. Next step, first fire?
Coyote Engine Install Part 2 - Foxbody Restomod Part 93 - In this video we finalize the preparations for putting the junkyard coyote into the car. We installed a Holley fox body coyote swap oil pan with Moroso oil pan studs and took a peek at the clutch that came off. Next video will have the engine going into the car. Use an engine stand folks!
Coyote Engine Install Part 1 - Foxbody Restomod Part 92 - In this video we start preparing the junkyard engine to get installed. This entails taking the intake off and adding the IMRC delete kit to it. I also had to remove the remaining exhaust manifold and one of the motor mounts. Finally, we install the SVE motor lift plate.
