    I have seen a lot of the Moroso's used, but don't know if there is a difference in them. So time to start googleing.
    The Moroso setup everyone is using with the Coyote is a Moroso 20570 pan with Moroso 24570 pickup. I'm not aware of another brand option, although maybe there is one.

    For motor and transmission mounts, the common setup is the Energy Suspension 4.1127G 4.6L Mustang Motor Mounts and the Energy Suspension 4.1104G Transmission Mount. You'll want to add the 1/2-inch spacers that Factory Five makes for inside the motor mounts. Part of their Coyote installation package. But available separately.

    Couple of other points. Looks like an F150 Coyote? That oil filter orientation is different than the Mustang, and as I recall that's one of the differences. Regardless, the oil cooler won't fit and probably you'll need to turn the oil filter or use a remote. Also, since you do have an older kit, I'm assuming you still have the older style footbox aluminum? A lot has changed since then for Coyote installations. Factory Five used to use sheet metal that also was for the older 4.6 mod motor. But it's an interference fit for the Coyote unless you tip the engine over, plus it takes a big bite out of the footbox space. There is newer sheet metal that fixes both. Gives room for the Coyote plus restores the lost footbox space. This was recently discussed in another forum post, so maybe you saw that or already knew about it.
