If youвЂ™re on the hunt for a Coyote to swap into your project, it should also be noted that the 5.0L Coyote can also be found in the venerable F-150 (2011-present), with the current truck variant making 395 hp. This version utilizes the Shelby GT350 intake manifold along with revised engine calibration from Ford. The Gen 3 is rated at 460 horsepower in the GT and thereвЂ™s a higher-output version (480 horsepower) found in the Mustang Bullitt and upcoming 2021 Mach 1. The Gen 3 is the latest version, found in the 2018-present Mustang GT, and Ford once again turned up the volume adding Direct Injection and 12:1 compression. The Holley 302-50 oil pan is only directly compatible with Gen 1 and Gen 2 engines the Gen 3 engines use a different oil pump/pick-up tube that would need to be retrofitted back to the Gen 1/Gen 2 style pump/pick-up tube in order to permit installation of the 302-50 pan. The CMCV valves do clear the firewall of SN95 cars when a stock K-member is used (specific aftermarket K-members may, or may not provide the same fore/aft engine position needed to ensure clearance). ItвЂ™s important to note the CMCV valves on the Gen 2 and Gen 3 intake manifolds will not clear the firewall on Fox Body cars and will need to be deleted/locked out by the user, or the intake manifold will need to be changed to a Boss intake or similar. The short-block received new pistons that have valve reliefs designed to work with the larger valves, and lastly, thereвЂ™s a new forged crank designed for extra stability at increased rpm. In 2015 Ford released the Gen 2 (2015-2017), which was upgraded with improved cams, stiffer springs, larger valves, and cylinder heads with revised ports and combustion chambers. Both cases require the use of the Holley 302-50 Coyote oil pan.

dressed! The width can create challenges in vehicles with a narrow engine bay, but by using specific Hooker Blackheart Coyote mounting components, it will bolt onto a Fox K-member, or directly to an SN95 K-member using standard mod motor mounts. One of the biggest assets is weight, as the all-aluminum Coyote engine is relatively lightweight at roughly 420 lbs.

The Gen 1, like all Coyotes to follow, uses the same engine mounting locations and engine-to-transmission mounting as the previous вЂњmodularвЂќ engine family, a plus for swapping. Features include 11:1 compression, four valves per cylinder and variable cam timing.

FordвЂ™s first Coyote, dubbed the Gen 1, was installed in the 2011-2014 Mustang GT and it produced 412 (2011-12) and 420 horsepower (2013-14), with 390 lb-ft of torque. First and foremost, there are three generations of Coyote and dimensionally they are all the same. If youвЂ™re unfamiliar with the Ford Coyote, fear not, weвЂ™ll get you up to speed. Holley has essentially solved common problems with engine mounting, exhaust, wiring and even fuel injection. Not only do the kits help with installation, they allow you the chance to get right to work, without worry about fabricating special parts, or requiring the factory K-member to be changed. These kits and associated parts and accessories take the guesswork out of installing a Coyote in a Ford that never came with one. Of course, retrofitting a new engine into an older chassis comes with challenges, and thatвЂ™s why Holley and Hooker Blackheart have developed specific Coyote Swap Solution Kits. It didnвЂ™t take long for enthusiasts to retrofit older Fords with the 5.0L modern power and for many, the Fox chassis Mustang was the obvious choice. The new вЂњ5.0LвЂќ (as compared to the pushrod small-block 5.0L) was an instant success, giving the Mustang 12-second quarter-mile power, high-rpm for amazing road course power, and most importantly, it the DOHC high-low heads made it ripe for performance upgrades and perfect for engine swaps, too. And with 7,000-plus rpm capabilities and 390 lb-ft of torque, the Coyote was a real weapon in the pony car wars.

Introduced in 2011 with 412 horsepower, the вЂњnewвЂќ 5.0L gave the Mustang a 112-horsepower upgrade over the 300 horsepower 4.6L 3-valve that powered the 2005-2010 GT. Without question, FordвЂ™s 5.0L Coyote is one of the most impressive American V8 engines ever produced.
