I think he means the truck will drive like a turd. Torque down low wouldn't be the issue for a tenth gen swap.

But the way I see it, I like this bodystyle, and I like the new Coyote. I'd like to see what happens when you smash the two together. Of course a lightning swap makes more sense, and would be easier, but is practicality really the point of a swap like this?

Of course, take everything I say with a grain of salt. I think a 2JZ belongs in every car.

 

with the 6speed automatic...


every single 4r70 equipped truck has zero drivability / power under 3500rpms

 

The Coyote has so much more potential and is a much newer aftermarket than the Lightning. But if you are doing a swap and plan to actually want to make some power with a Coyote, might as well get an aluminator or build the motor so it will take some abuse. Then slap on a TVS or a turbo kit and pump out 800 whp all day.

only people i see going 4r is people that stick to the 1320 every weekend.

I think a Tremec Magnum XL in a 10th gen with a Coyote would be fun as hell.

Tranzilla plus high compression 5.0 in my 2001 F150 is the plan this summer. We'll see how far I get with it. I have the M5 and a 4.6L in her now, so the only issue I've come across so far is the trans cross member needing to be repositioned. Harness from 4.6 will work. Engine mounts the same. Transfer case will bolt up. Might have to build some new drive shafts... Think I have to do e fans, but that's easy (relatively speaking).

I won't do anything as nice as Built54's write up on his sleeper truck, but I'll try to get close.
