Well, since the GTR engine isn't transverse, I imagine they used the F150 ecoboost. Doesn't help us out much, but definitely a cool build.

Perhaps that is more worth wild depending on goals to just build an F150 3.5 EcoBoost and swap it in and go rwd or something crazy like that ^^^. Why let the transverse orientation spoil all the fun. And it would still be an EcoBoost sho. Hmmm, anyone want a buy a built transverse 3.5???? Jk. But I love this idea….F150 have cam options too I believe.

Wait they must have a aftermarket ECU? Maybe the F150 EcoBoost swap is the Godzilla of the EcoBoost builds.

Years ago I saw an F150 3.5 EcoBoost swapped mustang, manual. Damn I’m thinking I missed the bus.

I swear this is my last comment. But that build above would be the ultimate for our cars. Built GTR trans with a built F150 EcoBoost 3.5 Ford Taurus SHO.

I like it. Kind of still prefer my idea of moving the engine to the rear, so sort of a rwd mid-engine SHO.

Oh for sure an engine swap would be legit. I was just saying that, in stock form, this conversion wouldn't benefit us.

Honestly, for the amount of fabrication required to turn the engine around, etc....I'd just put a Coyote in it and twin turbo that thing...it wouldn't be much more work than what you'd already be doing.
