    Yes, there have been Mod motors installed in Mavericks -- Yes, lots of mod's required. I have seen one a few years ago, at Maverick Gathering in Iowa. I will find a pic later today on my other computer.

    Type "coyote" in the search function. That will bring up the You Tube video and a large number of posts. Because the Coyote is wider than a Windsor, you have to remove the shock towers and go to a different front suspension, so lots of work before you even start to consider the engine.

    Try again. You spelled Coyote wrong in your original post. Coyote, not Cayote.

    There should be 180 posts on the subject.
