I was shooting the breeze today at my local auto zone and one of the employees said "you know what would be cool, is to swap a F-150 3.5 Ecoboost into your 2002 V6 3.8L". Please forgive me my knowledge of swapping motors is very green to say the least. His response was after I said I would like a Super Six or Coyote Swap, can someone educate this ole hillbilly(Me) on how to approach this. I plan on doing something extensive like this within the next 12-15 months and I know I will get some responses like get a V8 instead and do this and that but everyone has a V8, etc and I want this V6 of mine to be something different. Thanks in advance!

In either case, 3.5 ecoboost or high output 3.5 ecoboost, or the 5.0, you are going to need a complete drivetrain update, better brakes, better suspension, and appropriate wiring and computers. Not to mention a better fuel delivery system, exhaust, and some strutural modifications for whatever engine you decide to install.
It will be a good project and if you do follow tbrough with it, please start a thread to document your progress and attach photos along the way.
Good luck and keep us updated.

Yes Sir, Once I get it going I will take photos and videos. Thanks
I think you’ll need a new transmission. You’ll need some sort of aftermarket K member I think too.

Apples:Oranges probably but here’s a swap in a 2010
3.5 twin turbo ecoboost swap
So what would it take to swap one into an sn95? are all the ecoboost v6s from F150s? Can anyone find links to a fox or sn95 swap? (I couldn't) does anyone make a control pack? Do they need an electric gas pedal? I'd sure like to have three or four hundred rwhp, cleaner emissions, and 30mpg.

The way the guy at Auto Zone was telling it, that all I would need for the transmission was a adapter? In addition the rest would fall into place and drop in there and hook up. I'm getting he's full of ****.

Lol
As far as AutoZone, Pep Boys & all like places, if those people don`t see it on the computer screen in front of them they are lost. My son worked for AutoZone for minimum wage & to this day, he can`t tell a fan belt from a spark plug.
