Inside the Coyote Den of Fast Forward Race Engines

Fast Forward Race Engines and shop owners Joe and Gina Irwin have been making big horsepower and well-performing engines for quite some time. Recently, the shop's Coyote engine program has been gaining notoriety thanks to the work the shop does in conjunction with Brett LaSala and his record-setting Snot Rocket Mustang. That twin-turbo 5.0L Coyote built by FFRE won our Engine of the Year honors in 2023! We found ourselves nearby New Port Richey, FL during Sick Week 2024, so we had to drop in and say hi to Joe and Gina and get a tour of the shop. Check it out with us!

So much to like about the shop and the owner. Most excellent.

What head mods and who do you use?

I don’t know the guys at this shop but I did watch the video. They have one of the best equipped shops I’ve ever seen and they do some very intricate work on customers blocks and rotating assemblies. Head modifications should be a routine part of the program done in house. If you can get a reply, I would be surprised if they do rely on outside sources for head work 🤷‍♂️.

Should have thanked the people that helped you get there. Noticed this interview didn’t hit on how you got here and were you started. Too many skeletons maybe?

Do tell ??? Dead skeletons tell no tales 💀
