Save Time Mocking Up Your Godzilla V8 Using Our SoloSwap® Mock Up Block As Ford s replacement for the aging Modular 6.8L V10 SOHC engine used in Super Duty trucks the 7.3L Godzilla engine a clean sheet pushrod design that shocked Ford enthusiasts debuted in the 2020 F-250 and higher Super Duty pickups. With over 20 years of Modular engine production and Ford s Coyote engine which debuted in 2011 being one of the hottest Ford in a Ford engine swap ideas the new Ford Godzilla engine has quickly become swap fodder for many Ford enthusiasts. It s not terribly hard to find a wrecked Super Duty in the salvage yard and Ford Performance and others are even offering Godzilla-based performance crate engines. Meanwhile you can find swap mounts accessory drives and more to make your Godzilla swap a near bolt-in if you have a popular chassis like a Fox Body Mustang. But what if you re trying to fit your Ford Godzilla engine swap into an early Maverick or maybe even a classic F-100 pickup? Traditionally building something with an engine that was never meant to be installed in it would require an engine hoist an actual engine and a spotter or two keeping things in check while measurements were taken parts tack welded and so forth. It s not an easy or quick process as the engine must go in and out of the engine compartment numerous times. It can be dangerous with a 500 plus pound Ford Godzilla engine dangling on a chain over your hands (or head!). While this may have been how your father did engine swaps in the past there is a better and safer way to mock up that Ford Super Duty donor engine in your project and that is with the Speedway Motors patent pending SoloSwap® steel Godzilla mock up engine block. Laser Cut Steel Plate for Strength Simplicity and Easy Storage Even if you have your Ford Godzilla engine swap donor all apart down to the bare block that bare casting is still over two hundred pounds alone to try and roughly move into place to figure out your engine mounts headers and more on your project. Using replica engines to mock up your 7.3 Godzilla swap for your project is much safer and your back will thank you for your efforts. Past mock up options included a plastic engine block or foam engine block which while being light and easy to maneuver these plastic engines often did not hold up well to repeated usage or the installation of heavy components like long tube headers or a turbo manifold with turbo bolted to it. They re also not the best option when localized welding and grinding is happening to fab engine mounts/brackets either. Plastic blocks can easily be damaged from grinding or welding sparks. This is why we designed our SoloSwap® Godzilla mock up block system from laser cut 12-gauge steel with all accessory mounting holes accessible from the back side for simple nut and bolt assembly of your accessories for engine mock up. No more thread inserts that work their way out of the foam engine block material or even needing the factory hardware during the mock up phase
