"Ford Maverick Transformed with Easy Engine Swap: 2.3L EcoBoost Proves 'Plug and Play'"
Ivan Gonzalez, the builder of the world's quickest Ford Maverick, has successfully swapped the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine from a 2020 Lincoln Corsair into his Maverick, proving that it is essentially "plug-and-play." The engine fit seamlessly, with the stock wiring harness carrying over almost perfectly. With performance parts developed by Gonzalez, including a ram air intake and a custom front-mount intercooler, the Maverick is running at its best, achieving a quarter-mile time of 12.4 seconds at 112 mph. Gonzalez's goal is to break into the 11s by the end of the year, and he plans to achieve this at an upcoming drag race event.
