Project Deceptive GT: The Coyote Swap Reboot

[Deceptive GT]

My plan to prime and run my first pump is through the trigger wire for the FPDM.

The second pump will be on a Hobbs Switch. Going to run it all through the FC3.

Anyway, more pieces to the puzzle arrived.

Kenwood Excelon DMX906S

ARP Hardware

Innovate PSB-1

A few more things arrived this weekend.

Mishimoto Radiator

Floor mats, got to see how these match the carpet and go from there.

ECF-1 to monitor wideband, Fuel Pressure, Fuel Temp, and E85%.

Nothing big to update. I am in Florida with family. I did swap out bypass valves. I got an amazing deal on a Whipple low vacuum bypass valve and decided to take a chance. Got it installed and looked and noticed the low boost valve has one port where the stock has two. I called VMP and they stated the low boost valves only have one port provision. So all good on the Whipple and VMP low boost valves being interchangeable.

Well, here are some more things I recently received for the project.

Boundary 3V Oil Pump housing, Billet gears, steel GT500 backplate, 15/16 3V pickup

Saleen S281 wing

Stiffler’s Driveshaft Safety Loop

And some stuff to make harnesses for the PSB-1 and ECF-1 integration into the MS3, fixing the radio harness, wiring up the new headunit, and some other things.

So, I went to work on the wiring harnesses for the radio and the gauges. The radio headunit is done. The gauges, not so much. The pins for the connectors kept distorting upon crimping so I need to go back to research on connectors. I did have a good time working, watching the NMRA, and enjoying some drink.


I got my J2Fab 270A alternator so I should have no power issues.

And I also got my custom overlays for the PSV-1 and ECF-1 to match my Simco Gauges.

Got some work done. I removed the 12V in the center console and replaced it with a dual USB port. This will plug into the DMX906S, one is for the Apple CarPlay. I worked on prepping the rear axle housing. Plan is to get it cleaned, prepped, and coated/painted. I also worked on the gas tank. I got the Evap Lines cleaned and removed the two clips to remove the rust, prime, and paint. Last thing I did was get the FORE fuel hat and pumps installed into the Glenn’s Performance Baffled Tank.

I am probably going to make a change to one of the pieces of the build. I will decide this week.

How did you get the power point out of the console without breaking it?

There is a rubber tab that you push in then rotate to line up two plastic tabs in the notches and pull out. It is easy once you realize how it is done.

Ok gotcha. I tried removing the one in my shifter bezel a few weeks ago but didn’t want to break anything. I’m doing the same thing actually but I’m thinking about tapping into a hot in run circuit so if I do leave something plugged in it won’t drain the battery. Or maybe even run it straight to the battery with 12 gauge or so wire to give it a little more power than the stock circuit. Decisions decisions...

Hit what was a big milestone for me on the build and got the entire front suspension k member OT.

I will be doing a lot of cleaning and prepping for rust inhibitor and priming then coating or painting the underside and the engine bay.

Also got the Simco Gauges and Pod mounted.

Like I said, next step is cleaning and prepping the engine bay and underside to include the wheel wells. I hope to be putting this back together in 3-4 weeks.

Loading the truck up to drop some stuff off to make certain I have a strong rear end...

Anyhow, here is what my rear end will be getting.
Strange 31 Spline Axles
Eaton Detroit True-Trac LSD (not the CIA LSD)
FRPP 3.55 Gears
FRPP Install Kit
Swarr Bar
11” Rear Brake Kit
Ford Racing Diff Cover w/ARP Fasteners
ARP 3” Wheel Studs
Prothane UCA Poly Bushing

My rear end has already had the axle tubes welded, Strange Billet Main Caps, and quad shock mounts deleted.

That steeda piece is nice! If I ever went with one it would be it. Great parts list.

 

[Deceptive GT]

Got some more parts in and getting some more work done.

Picked up the Livernois Crankshaft Scraper/Windage Tray and Drainback Kit as some added insurance.

Got the new fan and radiator mounted together. Big improvement over the stock one.

Got a PA Performance High Torque Mini Starter.

Also picked up new front hub assemblies.

Painting some odds and ends in the car. A few clips and brackets are being painted in Black Hammer.

I'm so jealous of that starter! I got some work done myself today, glad it was mutual. Mishimoto rad is sweet!

I wanted a good solid starter. My CR is about 10:1 but I figured with the setup being what it is I needed to get something nice.

I went back and forth about which radiator to get and went with the Mishimoto due to the floating mounts and went with their aluminum upper mounts too.

I'm going to have higher cylinder pressure myself with my cams, so I definitely see what you mean.

I installed there drain back kit as well on my Cobra block, but I had to bend them in a little cause they were interfering with the oil pan... Go figure it was a Livernois oil pan.

Oops, I have a Canton oil pan that's why I had the interference lol.

Well, got some garage candy. Just a 32” Smart TV to watch whatever while fooling around in the garage. I was using my iPad.

Got a MM Steering Shaft.

New AC Condenser.

And my POR15 finally came in. I am hoping to have the engine bay done this weekend.
