Are you coming over the top with your exhaust?

Ultimately Yes.
However, I think I've figured out a low dollar header option for starters.
My budget is getting stretched a bit thin.
I can totally understand. I am just happy to see you stay with Ford power.
I imagine this swap has been done before, Wondered if anyone offered an off the shelf header for the application vs. going custom.

Looks like that is the biggest Ford Powerplant you could have chosen to put in when considering external dimensions.
I say good job!

Just found another interference issue.
The flex Plate presses against a cast bracket for the Crank Trigger Sensor. I cut a "T" shaped slot for clearance.
Note: this is the flex plat that comes with the Quick Time Coyote 5.0 to ZF Bell housing.
I'm going to contact them.

Well done and I applaud your bravery. I am always very nervous when the engine is hanging over the back of the car. Heaven forbid if it were to drop. You know, weak link or failed 25 cent o-ring. And you have the confidence to park it there while you go take pictures for us. Wow!

Set in place. Did this alone so I'm a bit exhausted right now.
Tiring isnt it. I havent taken mine out since it went in. I have had the trans in and out half a dozen times though. I have gotten that one down to a science.
It's only scary the first couple of times, in fact concerning is a better term. The drive train on the stock engine needs to get shoehorned in. The Coyote is tighter.
For some reason (that probably being I'm just stupid?) it's easier to pull the engine out then it is to put it back in...still.

When I originally put it in I had to drop it into the bay till the engine was sitting above the fender wells on a rolling cart. I then disconnected the hoist and rolled the engine forward into position. Then I lifted the car up on the vehicle hoist. I didnt have the bellhousing at the time.

Having a bare block and heads to work with has really made it easy to this point.
Trans bolted to bellhousing and block, no fly wheel, no clutch and no engine internals.
Ive had the motor/Trans in and out of the car about 6 times now. Solo! Putting the fully dressed motor in was a real work out. Phew!!!

Now you are the expert. Now we will come to you for help. "Show me again how it goes is please?"
Yep, once the heads are on the game changes.
