Even if it's a PITA you'll gain 30-40hp on a hot day easy...

Apparently it's not hard... there are two ways... one involved following the correct procedures and draining the coolant...

The other is removing the bumper support but doesn't require draining the coolant... but you need to break a couple spot welds.

I look forward to your results of how it all works out!  We aren't too far from each other and if this works like it's supposed to, I may bite the bullet and do it myself.  Maybe even drive out and have you help ;-)

Same here and I've done far more complicated swaps than this would be, but an experienced helping hand never hurts!

Who do we know in the area that has a lift in his garage, and a police interceptor, and auxiliary fans for cooling?  Y'all should have a meetup there and make a party out of it!  Hmmmm ... LOL.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

FWIW the install looks pretty straight forward on the F150 platform!

Side note I guess my patience is thinning unless I hit the 11's prior to this being released!  Z  ;)

You have to pull the radiator out to put it in. Unless you want to drill a couple spot clamps/welds on the front bash bar. (IMO best way, but the poll i made for the installation video method nobody wanted to do that) The whole two piece system thing is a mega PITA because it wraps around the radiator and is wedged between the radiator and the ac condenser radiator.
