I appreciate seeing realistic discussion of what this stuff costs. So many people seem to get sucked into looking at just what the engine costs out of a junkyard or even a "complete swap" from somewhere like The Parts Farm and forget all about making it fit/function in the truck or making the truck ready to drive with twice the power.

@thatmarred_mustang 4 жыл бұрын

I'm a die hard Ford guy. And I totally agree. Ford has needed a good crate motor like this for a while. The LS is a spectacular engine, and really simple. In terms of tech I think the coyote rivals it, but it's just on par with almost everything else the LS does. (Not everything the ls does something's better obviously)

Only thing stopping me is the cost for the damn 5.0 with a 10speed auto.

@JohnnyRebKy 4 жыл бұрын

These new EFI systems like the Edelbrock Pro Flow are so good I dunno what’s stopping Ford guys from upgrading their old motors. It’s easy to get the same power a coyote has with a 348 stroker or 351 and you can EFI them now. I saw one guy put a Edelbrock EFI on his 396 Chevy and it went from 11mpg to 16mpg from the swap alone! That’s before a trans swap or gear change. So I thought I wanted a coyote swap but you can modernize the old motors so well these days I’m not sure the coyote is worth the headache. But Ford should offer crate engines like that in he first place like GM does. EFI 302 and 351s would sell like crazy

STREET RACER the stock 420hp coyote would be more than enough for me. In my 66 F100 it would rip! But I can build a nice 347 or 351 WAY cheaper and slap Edelbrock EFI on it. 420-450 street horsepower enough for me. There’s nothing unreliable about those old engines, it’s the carbs that can get cranky on them. Edelbrock or holly EFI fixes that problem. It’s not all that much money to make a old school EFI motor and be perfectly reliable. I just can’t do 10k plus over a coyote. I’ll enjoy coyote in my modern truck
