V10 Mustang
Hey Guys, and Gals
Does anyone have information on V6 to V10 SC swap. U see i found this great deal on a Supercharged V10 from F-150 lightning, but modded. it's a 5.4L V10 with an Auto transmission producing 500hp to the wheels (tested according to the company that is selling it). They are also supplying the ECU, TCU, and everything in between.
My questions are:
- Is this possible?
- Will i have enough space in to fit that big V10?
- If it's possible, what do you recommend for drive shaft? should i get one from an F-150 lightning maybe, but if i do will it fit in my 2004 sixer?
i also stumbled on these videos of a V10 mustang engineered by ford, it's a test mule that will never see the light and that what got me inspired:

Yes you can put a 5.4L in a Mustang, however the swap really isn't worth the dollars it takes, if you want to go larger, go 351 or 429, cause you'll have more power potential, and you'll spend the same in parts in the long run.
In short, this is not a project the average person will be able to afford as nearly everything on the car will need to be swaped out, or modified to make the engine work. In other words, ecu, suspension, belhousing, full wiring harness, and cooling system make just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to a project like this.

Ahem......... the 5.4L from the F-150 is a V8, not a V10. The only V10 Ford makes is on prototype and one time only cars, such as the Super Stallion Mustang and what not.

The 5.4 out of a lightning would be swappapble there is a guy locally running a procharged 5.4 V8 in what used to be a 2v GT (02 model) So it will fit and will make your car quicker. But it will cost a lotta money to redo a basically all of your car. Oh and if its any indication of how this is in no way cost efficient the local 5.4 GT got his **** pushed in by a C6 vette running a catback exhaust and a 100 shot lol
