    Welcome to Hartwick Performance!
    GODZILLA - KING OF MUSTANGS
    This is part 1 to the 2011 Mustang going from a 5.0L Coyote to the new 7.3L GODZILLA. We don't have a shop or all the best tools so we are going for it with what tools we have and a crane in the driveway. This engine is coming out in Ford's super-duty line, but we ordered it early and decided to make the Mustang hell on wheels! Yeah baby!

    for all the guys warning about balanced flywheels ... both the coyote and godzilla are internally balanced engines. That means the flywheels are neutral balance, so they can be swapped without issue. that's a lot nicer than old ford engines!

      @oldmusher 3 роки тому +1

      I have a (438 cubic inch Ford Performance block) Windsor that I elected to go internally balanced on. If you are going to use all stock parts is one discussion, in which case, a stock Windsor has a 28oz imbalance. Only 5 billion parts made to accommodate that... But if you are rebuilding your stock 302 or 351 W or C..."0" balance rotating assemblies, flywheels and balancers are the same price as equal quality 28 or 50 oz parts. So cry me a river.

    I saved every penny from my deployment came home bought a car cash. And honestly 15 years later I still have a nice car. It may not seem like it but you are setting yourself up for the future and having something nice to drive around later. Hooooooah

    I’d have put that 7.3 in that lighting!!! Would be a very cool build for a truck! But it will definitely be awesome in the Shang....good luck!!!

    For Coyote guys: I've heard of cracking issues with the 11mm head bolt block and lots of boost, especially if it hasn't been sleeved, as the head bolts only thread down to about the same level as the knock sensors. With the 12mm blocks the bolt threads go clear down into the main webbing and are said to be much stronger. In 2011 they had the 12mm design but went to the 11mm some point later on. I believe the 18 and up they switched back to the 12mm head bolts. You can have a 11mm block drilled at tapped for a 12mm bolts/studs but it's cheaper just to start with a 12mm block if you plan on high boost.
