Steve, as an installer you will be pleased to know that there are no production modifications or changes needed in order to fit the new modular motors into the current or previously built cars back to 2004. The only thing needed is to select the appropriate engine mounts and headers just like you do with any of the other engine selections.
As I previously mentioned , *all* Superformance cars already have the narrowed foot boxes and steering shafts moved over to fit the wider engines as STANDARD EQUIPMENT starting with car #2028, which left the factory on 10/19/2004. And then towards the end of 2005 (in the car 2200-ish range), the steering shaft was moved outwards *once more* which also required a notch to be made in the inner fenderwell for even more room.
This is not an option, but rather a standard feature on the Superformance Mk-III's. However, I doubt the Coyote engine will fit in the cars built prior to #2028 or before October of 2004.
