Too many 2v owners have dismissed the motor because they either don't have the time, money or knowledge to build them well

@@WarriorOfEden3033I agree I have neither the knowledge or money. Would be nice if I can secretly build my dads 03 expedition

@@ciscoh1 build over time, save for quality parts & talk to people with more experience with the motor. Don’t listen to people who build junkyard parts bin cars or dismiss the engine entirely. BST is really good at building junkyard cars that run but ask him about performance mods on the 4.6 & he will tell you boost or nothing. Nothing wrong with boost but FBO, ported heads & cams you can see 400hp easily before boost

I mean they're the same size they drop right in on any 4.6 engine.

Yeah the Windsor is my favorite Ford engine of all time

I’ve been contemplating on building the motor in my 02 Saleen sc. Thinking about all forged internals, automatic trans, fuel system, and turbo. She only has 38,000 miles so I don’t know. Thought about putting a Godzilla in it. I mean why not ?

@@tatersmith9544If I were you I would buy a gt with a blown motor for the godzilla swap, don’t mess up your saleen those are too sweet to molest!

A coyote is a big bore 4.6 with high compression and rpm plus alot more tech like tivct.

Yes, Mod motor..

Mod motors are easy to get power from especially boosted the stock rods just aren't that strong it's a pretty easy fix with a rod and pistons swap especially with a 4v which had forged cranks. People act like you gotta do all kinds of stuff to make a mod motor make and take power but that is totally false.. you gotta do more than a coyote to make coyote power but the engine is also much cheaper to start especially if you already have said engine in your car. I'm thinking about coyote swapping my 97 cobra simply because I want to make 500 to the wheels all motor turning 8k that is alot easier to achieve with less modding with a coyote. If I was just gonna do a 500-600 or so rwhp boosted build like alot of guys do (I already got a big power boosted 07 gt500 i want the cobra to be an all motor twisties build) I would simply do boss rods and 10:1 forged pistons with cams and headers it would make good power pretty easy with forced induction. I still may do a budget 4v build with a centri I haven't 100% made up my mind.

Coyote is the final form of the mod motors

​@WarriorOfEden3033 it's not really a mod motor though nothing else is interchangeable on them like cams and heads and intake manifolds etc. The rods are the same because it's based on the 4.6 but larger bore but it isn't actually part of the 4.6 family the 5.4/5.8 4v engines in 07-14 gt500s are mod motors just like the old 4.6 and 5.4 2v 3v and 4v and they all share the same firing order with the windsors. The coyote is a diff engine family but does have the same length rods as the old 4.6.

How much were the pistons?

I'm looking to build a budget 600hp 2v motor. Are manley rods better than Gen 2 coyote rods? How do I size Gen 2 rods to a GT 6 bolt crank?

​@@donaldjohnson4570they are but they also cost more. The coyote rods are fine up to 700+ wheel.

500 wheel is so easy to achieve with even a 2v. Boss rods and you can hold 500 wheel easy imo with a good tune. I would also do forged pistons but the crank is good to at least 600 wheel.

How much boost and power are you making with that bad boy ?

The bore is to big, you would have to install aftermarket sleeves and bore to 3.63” which would be really expensive

Just his personal preference

@@andrewlavender08 that’s cool

Because the teksid is lighter and still extremely strong prob even stronger than the iron block.

Go ARP

If it's for a 03/04 Cobra then yes..

Rods are fine used imo. They aren't really a wear item perse. If they aren't bent or broken they're fine.

You'd be fine at 600 wheel with the cast crank as long as you aren't trying to spin high rpm (7000+)

Somewhere around 8-10k total including the torque tech kit. End goal is a fun reliable 600whp that will do drag and drive events

I think it would handle 700 wheel pretty easily imo.

Coyote rods and forged pistons you can go well over 600 rwhp imo

I believe he said 10/1 in this deal

It's boostable.. Just talk to your tuner about it..

11:1 is good long as you run good enough fuel. 93/boostane minimum and race fuel or e85 ideal.

They are pretty good

Manley makes the toughest rods you can get for our motors, the billet steels are what the world record was set on.

thanks for the info

@@GabrielGonzalez-rh1ei anything aftermarket forged will be good for more than a thousand too.

@@Prestiged_peck sounds good trying to build a 7 to 800 horse street car
