Now that the 5.2 is available as a crate engine can someone please give me suggestions/constructive criticism.
Note: I did not get a Raptor R as I like SUVs better and Bronco has better approach/departure angle, aftermarket part supply (debatable) and looks more unique. I wish Ford RR looked different than Ford Raptor (difference 2 negligible for average person to be notice).
Any way how much things would have to be updated/changes for the 5.2 swap to work. What kind of exterior, interior, frame, exhaust, ECU, suspension mods etc would have to be completed. I want it done properly and not just stick a large engine in (like bodybuilders with small legs and massive upper body this would look and perform below par).
I want the thing as close to Raptor R OEM performance as possible in all aspects of the vehicle, not just the engine.
Anyone know a reputable shop with hands on experience that could perform such a task in North America (CAN, USA, MEX) and ball park price when all said/done (thinking over 75k USD easily)
Thanks!
