Mustang coyote swaps

It depends on how he wired the car up. Ford sells a electronics package that lets you put the engine in any car. Pretty much plug and play. He could have used a doner car for the ECU & wiring. If he custom wired it using a different ECU, stand alone, or who knows what, your guess is good as ours. lol
It should have a ODBII port. If he has the front and rear o2 sensors, EVAP and other systems installed and wired up in the car, it should pass. Get a scanner, or the torque app on your phone with ODBII Bluetooth, and see if it shows the systems are ready, incomplete, and so on. That is what you need to see if it will pass emissions.

Supposedly the wiring is from the donor car - says all gauges and lights work as they should - he's not local so ill see about him scanning it
Are fords like LS cars - engine and ecu are seperate and you just supply power to engine harness and car harness?
If he doesn't have a scan tool, or torque app, he can run to an auto parts store or shop to have them scan it and then send you a picture.
I am not 100% sure about everything being the same engine to engine. Some of the sensors could be different from the F150 to the mustang and year to year. But I think if you are using a 2014 and earlier engine I think you will be fine. Especially if the wiring and ecu are from the same car. It may be just the work of verifying the hardware is there, hooked up and the tune accounts for the emissions systems.
fyi, the GT intake would probably be better with that car to help out with the torque. An aftermarket tune really wakes these up as well.
It's in MO - supposedly clean interior and no rust or major damage, just faded paint - he will also be adding cash
Kind of what I'm wanting - tired of having to fab everything for the falcon
I would like to add boost, but would also like to take the swap out and put it in my fairmont!
unless the ecu is reprogrammed to the vin number of the car ,you will not pass emissions.when you go for emission testing they will enter the vin number from the crown vic,and the ecu vin will not match.also you need to know the vin number on the ecu ,just in case it was reported stolen .i had many issues when i swapped the 4v in my 01 saleen.the ford racing swap harness and ecu does not have a vin number and i dont think it has all the related emission stuff.i have a 3v swap in my 94 cobra and using the swap pack.just basic stuff.do your homework before you buy it.
It was a long time since I researched it. But if the vehicle has a newer engine in it the emissions standards are required for the newer engine. There is a way to get the car tested with the newer engine in it. I just don't remember if it was something the Air Team, EPA, or DMV had to be reported to so that it can be tested for emissions.
It depends if it is a stock T5 or something like a G Force T5. But ya, not usually the first choice for a mod motor swap.
I asked the same thing
he just said he only bought the engine, harness, and pcm - and because t5s are cheaper and easier to replace when broken
Is it something that can be changed with a tune, say with HP Tuners - or Ford? Or not that simple
