THE NEW KING OF PUSHROD SWAPS? - The Aftermarket Is Quickly Getting Behind The GODZILLA CRAZE!
Ойын-сауық
Ford has an answer for those who want big pushrod power! IMO the GODZILLA 7.3 will be the go-to engine swap for Ford owners as prices drop and availability grows. LMR has swap parts in stock right now! And it will only continue to grow in the future!

Yes! I just watched the LMR build videos earlier this week. Amazing to see it running around. I can't imagine Godzilla swapping but what a feat
This swap could be a game changer for ole trucks as well, can't wait for LMR to show us more, huge shout out to LMR

I agree. This swaps seems fairly straightforward. And it’ll only get easier in time with better aftermarket support
Thanks for the info lmr and brew2L . That's one awesome instrument cluster 👍good swap
That’s wicked. Great work once again LMR
This is one of my ultimate set-ups. I have a fully built 64 galaxie that's sitting on a stretched 03 Vic frame. It is currently running just Vic running gear. But a Godzilla with a 10r80 would be my dream set up. The nice thing is my Vic frame set up gives me lots of options for putting down some power.
Not sure if prices will go down but MANNNN that pushrod sound with bigger power out of the box with AC?? You should definitely get one done at some point!

I would love to do one but she pricing is to high for me at the moment. I'll probably have less in the Dart build than doing a GODZILLA SWAP.. either way the GODZILLA SWAP is BAD AZZ It took me over two years to get my Dart shp block with billet main caps 351w/427 etc. with Molnar forged crank Molnar forged rods and weisco forged pistons with tfs 240cc hi port stage 3 KUNTZ racing CNC race port job. Stainless works long tubes and a fastxfi set up. I'm about to get the body work finished then lay the paint then last but not least the 427w installed
I'm really considering the godzilla swap for my coupe. Really like to hear how it's sounds with a cam n if I like the sound them I'm doing a stroked windsor

The deck height is about a half inch lower than a Ford FE but the 428 FE heads are shorter and angle up straight parallel to the shock tower. The godzilla head is taller and goes straight out.

The 7.3 is a decent swap for a truck that needs some pulling power or maybe an old big body Ford. But for anything meant to make power, you're better off going with a 351w or a 460. It'd be cheaper to make the same or more power. Hell you'd be better off with a coyote instead in any application where the 7.3 could be swapped into.
Now we know what your next build is going to be
What is that part attached to the automatic gear shifter?
Would this fit into older Ford’s that came with big blocks? Such as a sixties Ford Galaxy?
You’re speaking to me. Might need to get a foxbody 🤔
I think this is the direction I want to go!
Ford Racing is supposedly working on a low profile intake for these but it's still a concept so who knows when it will hit the market.
I like finding motors and trans from LKQ they fairly priced decent! You might be able to find you a Godzilla from them just saying!!

Why not just put a 427 and call it a day, the 427 straight from the Ford parts catalog comes already built and you can get one with 525 hp or one north of 600 hp. The Godzilla engine is a dog in stock form and in order to get some real good horsepower you have to take the whole engine out put pistons, a camshaft, and get the cylinder heads worked on in order to put out some serious horsepower. Why not just go with a 351. I just don’t get why everybody is so obsessed with this Godzilla engine. If you do a coyote swap you can do more with that engine and you don’t have to open up the engine to get the power out of it. Just bolt on a blower, have it tuned and the Godzilla will not even compare to that engine. Like I said I don’t get why everybody is obsessed with this Godzilla engine, it’s OK for a truck but for a car I think it is well over rated and there are better options out there
It will never be the "king" of anything. This will be just like anything else cool that Ford has made, hard to find and hoarded.
