Every trick in the book. DOHC, DI, VVT, super high rev, high compression and multi valves. It is quite the piece! I’m a Hemi guy but you have to give credit where it’s due.
My old gearhead dad always told me the secret to any V8 is in the heads. Getting them to breathe is what helps them turn out high power and RPM. If you've ever noticed a coyote torn down it's actually a very small block with very huge cylinder heads..
Well, I have a bone stock 2012 coyote; it just rolled 306k and apart from plugs, nothing has ever come out/off of the motor. Only uses .5 quarts of conventional oil between 5K changes. No complaints here. Id get another one once it dies.
I come from the Supra world (5MGE, 7MGTE, 1JZGTE, 2JZGTE) and i love learning about other engines. This video was fantastic, no biased opinion just facts and great explanation. Look forward to future videos you break down like this.
@@marcelk3847 for a stock build coyote is the best american engine by far. LS and hemi only great because the simplicity but thats also limiting. i prefer a dohc engine it just makes more sense to make more power.
The second 2011 hit, and I saw Ford was releasing a 5.0 again, named a dang 'coyote' I wanted one immediately. I grew up, got a job and got a 16 GT last year, I'm super in love with the car. Bringing it out to 7200 and shifting just feels different and gives a new appreciation for cars to me. This is a seriously legendary engine, and in my opinion will go down in history of top 10 engines of all time; in America at least
Sounds awesome brother, I have a 2011 Ford F150 with a 5.0L Coyote V8 in it with 147,000 miles on it still going strong and its a beast and it sounds like a beast with the Borla ATAK exhaust on it.
@@CJColvin cool. I prefer to leave the "beast performance" to cars like my BMW. My truck is for towing and whatever else I decide to do with it, but speed definitely isn't a good quality for a real truck. RAM TRX, RAPTORS are stupid. Their just pavement queens, might as well bought a car. Especially when most guys who have trucks just go MALL CRAWLING🤣
@@CJColvin Same here, my '14 Ford F150 has the 5.0 coyote as well and it sounds so good when you get into it even completely stock. Even the intake noise is so good.
@337Speed Australian guy here... I just wanted to say a huge thank you. I've learnt more about the various US built engines here on your channel than I have in years watching hundreds of other videos RUclips.. Seriously... you know your sh*t and I love your videos. Much respect. - Perth, Western Australia
I enjoyed this lesson. I am a Nissan/Mitsubishi driver, but I was always curious about the Mustangs. The Coyote is a formidable beast. If I can find one overseas where I work, I may buy one.
I am a mechanic and have lots of ls and coyote engines laying around. Couple things not mentioned are cam swaps are easy on a coyote. No measuring push rod length and no need to degree the cam. Then the biggest thing I love about working on a modular engine is no accessory brackets.
Explain, in detail, how lining up 2 dots, on 2 sprockets, and hanging ONE chain, is HARDER than indexing 4 chains, on 5 sprockets, with 5 different marks. Also GM did not use a degree wheel on the million + LS engines they shipped, and neither do you have to, if you don't want to. Also, dozens of cams are available in stock base circle, require zero pushrod changes. Sounds to me like despite you being a mechanic, you've never touched and engine with a wrench, and sure as hell not a Coyote. One valve cover has more fasteners to remove than the LS cam swap total. You really don't know what the hell you're talking about, do you ?
@@jamesgeorge4874 sounds like you only play around with stock ls stuff. Put an adult size camshaft in and you start changing base circle. Put aftermarket heads on and you always check push rid length. Zero deck the block and then checking it again and ordering custom length push rods. The after that you have to degree the cam. If you think it takes a lot of time to line up a couple more dots then grab your box of crayons and your retard helmet and leave this to the pros.
@@jamesgeorge4874 thank you I was about to type out the same exact thing. Dual overhead cams are a nightmare to clock. Most coyote guys just leave it alone until the timing chain snaps.
@@SuperSilvi1990 to be fair, I've done major engine work on Ford, Dodge, and GM V8's for a long time, the new Hemi, and LS family are much easier, Ford has been on a mission to make technicians life hell since 1997. You should work on the 6.7 Powerstroke, every decision made about servicing that engine, had punishment in mind. I was a pretty hardcore Ford guy, untill I started fixing them.
You're correct that it's it's "easy mode" with a coyote that you don't have to go into the motor...until you do. If you're just slapping boost on one 500-700ish hp is pretty easy. But if you want to build a coyote for more it is a more sophisticated engine than the LS. The coyote in my drag car has vvt deletes and locked cams and let me tell you, I've gotten really good at degreeing cams when I decided to build a coyote. I also learned a lot more about things like cam timing and overlap messing around with these things then I ever did with sbc. In fact, I so fell in love with the coyote I swapped on into my old camaro 😁.
@@piuthemagicman I have a few short video clips on my page if you're interested. I finally got around to buying a gopro camera so I should be able to post some videos of it at the dragstrip this spring. Went 10.95 at 130mph on 5psi of boost last year. My goal is low 10's this year.
@@StonkeyKong Pretty much anything to your liking with a small block chevy in it - tons of different cars and pickups had them. It's a tough engine, most versions respond really well to bolt-ons, parts are cheap and everywhere, info on how to build them is everywhere. There are small block Fords and Mopars but they're a little bit less popular so not quite as much aftermarket support but still really good options. If imports are more your thing 90s civics are still pretty plentiful and have a ton of support too. Not as much power but you don't need as much in a lighter car.
Just discovered this channel! Love your engine comparisons! Very well informed, and yet entertaining and not dry at all!! Love it!! More videos like these would be awesome for newcomers to the community! Or long time nerds like me who just love seeing every possible POV about the topic!
The 5.0L Coyote V8 is definitely a beast. I have a 2011 Ford F150 with a 5.0L Coyote V8 in it with 147,000 miles on it still going strong and its a beast and it sounds like a beast with the Borla ATAK exhaust on it.
@@beastmaster415 I also really like how they each have their own character, used to be a hemi guy when I was younger but as I get older I appreciate them ls's and coyotes more since they're good at different things
@@scordatura9259 And at this point it’s pretty hard to say any engine is directly better then the other… Almost all these new muscle cars will make 800 Whp with some somewhat basic changes.
There are certain aspects that make the 5.0 better. But I still think the LS3 was the best v8 of the past 20 years. They were simple, reliable, sounded great, and can handle enough power. The newer LT series I do not like. They added all the new stuff like DI, AFM, and VVT. I would buy a 5.0L over a LT1 and do currently own a gen 3 5.0L.
@@james10739 why. Coyotes flow better rev higher and make more hp without a struggle. RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. But make sure u go the 3-2-1 method like this guy said in the video to make good hp reliably
@@motorlife5239 not to mention if we’re talking end goal… the ford modular platform has been in promod cars making upwards of 3000+ Hp for almost 2 decades… the LS platform is not nearly as footed at that power level and not to mention dodge and the new HEMI is basically nonexistent at that level. Not that it really applies to you and I but it’s still cool to know there’s a factory ford crank and engine block out there making 3000hp 🤣
I have a 540hp 5.3 LH6 Trailblazer SWB. It's pretty fast and sounds unbelievable with its stg 3 cam, custom heads, and upgraded valvetrain and forged internals. 3k stall, American Racing longtube headers running to X-pipe and Spintech mufflers make it sound phenomenal. One thing I learned is there is always something bigger and badder so enjoy other people's rides and enjoy yours. We live in the greatest muscle car era ever. Its gonna be gone soon so enjoy it.
@@usandthagunns3922 if this is their best then that sucks because many motors take it out. I had meant many ford body chasis use gm or hemi style swaps. Only dumb people's would put a ford motor in a non ford chasis ha.
@@usandthagunns3922 They would if they could. People dont because the engine is very big compared to a LS and way more expensive compared to a LS doesnt mean it isnt one of the best engines.
Ford Australia and FPV used a blown 5L in the FG and FG-X cars, and they sound delightful! They make big power with just a tune. 335kW and 570Nm in standard form, but most of us believe these numbers are understated, and are closer to 400kW, as they dyno over 300rwkW in stock form (the GT-F at least!)
Great video! The boss302 roadrunner does come pretty much built from the factory, with the forged crank ect. Also Gen 1 are safe anywhere in the 600s, it's once you make 700+Rwhp you'll pop it. Oh and OPGS are only a issue if you're bouncing off the limiter.
@@JamesWilliams-dj2bp North of 1000Rwhp. The boss came with a forged crank, with pistons & rods. As well with boss specific cams, heads, valves, & valves springs. Gen 2 got some of these goodies, but not everything.
All you got to do is take the pistons out and gap the rings to 30 thousandths. Then they are good for 900 hp all day. The number one reason stock engines fail, while being boosted, is ring gap. Nobody bothers taking the pistons out and gapping the rings for boost. Before throwing 20 psi on stock gap. 🤣
I really enjoy your videos I have a 2000 WS6 with an lq4 swapped fully built etc etc. I stumbled across your videos and glad I did keep up the good work.
Nah chief, this was a really well explained and thought out video. Father was a Chevy Man, grew up to be a Dodge/Mopar man, and learned to appreciate Ford. Right now I just love anything combustion, and badge loyalty isn't a thing anymore and grew out of that phase. I just appreciate great engineering, same can't be said for others who have their Bias. Looking forward to hearing about the Gen III/IV Hemi's. Thought I already know what's coming...price tag of a Ford, and none of the LS benefits/accomplishments. Honestly aftermarket Gen II Hemi's are a better option IMO. It hurts to say coming from a guy who loves Dodge, but I acknowledge faults when I see it. Also, would love to see a short thoughts and opinions on Ford's recent Godzilla
@@josefrobbins8781 have you seen what hemi style non dodge engines can do? Like proline, noonan, morrison, etc etc. Hemi & Chevy style motors still whoop ford pretty much most of the time still.
@@lordpula1193 Yep, I've heard of those guys. Sonny's and Arias are one of the greats who have experimented with the Chevy Block-Hemi Head combo, and you've got some of the greats like Brodix Chevy Blocks, John Kaase with Ford, and Keith Black for Chrysler/Dodge. So yeah I'm aware of the world of aftermarket, and the companies that build race engines. Though the topic at hand is running a stock factory block, and finding it's limitations build or budget wise, and not using a race block. A company like Proline makes just full blown race engines, and I wouldn't even call their engine based on the Gen II Hemi, and more like a tribute to the Gen II because the Proline shares no similarities with the original Chrysler's 426 aside from the 2V Hemi Combustion chamber, the use of a 4 bolt mains, and maybe the Valve cover design.
@@josefrobbins8781 Yup so many, dart too. Sonny's is more nitrous or na based but still. Even excluding proline and most of those, chevy and hemi from factory engines still best and beat ford's engines. You have to build them but even stock for stock hemis and chevy based engines still make over 1000 hp not built. fords need to build them too otherwise they're sitting bombs. Point is whether from factory or the at the highest levels it's mostly chevy, dodge and all their counterparts. Fords is every now and then. Even then it's a ford body or chasis with a hemi or chevy swap.
that was great. I always thought the only way to go would be an LS swap. I'd love to do a Coyote swap on one of my Crown Vics whenever (or if it ever) wears out. But they seem so well made that they will probably outlive me.
I had a 2003 Crown Vic with 300k on it. It was my first car. Just sold it. I just had to add some oil every couple thousand miles. Changed the coil packs and spark plugs but besides only a few other minor mechanical things it runs great. The 4.6 is one of the most reliable engines ever made in America.
Ur gonna spend less than half on an ls than a coyote 5.slow. hell even the lincoln continental guys build turbo ls engines for roughly 6k rather than a bone stock coyote for12-15k
have fun with that....due to the lack of a balanceshaft to counter-act the flat-plane crank design, the 170g's of lateral movement vibration from 7250-8000 it just keeps breaking starters, bellhousings, and even in some cases breaking the track-pack oil cooler right off the side of the block...JUNK!
I have a 2011 F150 5.0 best truck I owned. Has 224k miles and used it for many road trips. The most I ever had the truck do, was towing my other car from STL to LV. Very reliable and smooth power delivery. I know the truck 5.0 is different than the mustang 5.0. But regardless the 5.0 is a very good motor. One day I’ll get a gen 3 10speed 😉
Present day I have a ‘12 F150 Coyote with 65,000 miles. I have an aftermarket exhaust system and it sounds just like its coupe comparison sister. Gosh I love the truck, lowering it soon and putting some love into the engine. But Im sure it’ll be very appreciative of the power I put behind that crank. One other thing I noticed is while Coyotes also love hogging air into the intake, when you downshift in those trucks/stangs, the backfire is one of the scariest noises Ive ever heard. Its sure enough to make a whole daycare wet themselves lmao
@@enigma9789 why would I own one after knowing from everyone’s experience with the EB? I did my research while I was looking for an Ford F-150 and I’ll gladly stick to the 5.0 motor.
Very informative, love my 10r80 gen 3 coyote and have had a fbo Gen 1 V love both motors just astounding how capable the coyote is out of the box like you said boost fuel system and OPGS 🤣
@@169abr yes it’s a good safety precaution tho, manual cars need it more lund even states it can be optional for auto cars due to how they shift. If you have 2 step you want it tho.
simple NA stuff is great for coyotes too, my ‘15 Mustang with ~$5-600 in bolt ons makes 480 to the wheel and revs to 8k. couldn’t ask for more out of a little NA V8, it’s so much fun
Loved my 15 gt tune exhaust making 440rwhp far from my fastest vehicle but was a fun car to drive. Bought it to supercharge it and decided it was fast enough without it. Loved how it built power all the way to 7500 like a big turbo 4 cyl.
That's the tradeoff here. You get to choose the better head, or the larger block. I think I like the ohv better though. It's easier to get the GM engines to rev than it is to increase the displacement of the coyote. I also like the fact that ohv engines fit in smaller engine bays.
@@MichaelWittner pushrod engines have yhe classification of OHV. Yes all engines are OHV but they do not have cams above them. Imo easier way to say ut is CIB or cam in block
Takes a coyote all day to catch a stock c8 they won't even run even close to Z06 can't imagine what's going to happen when they introduce the z51 the 5.5 is an overhead valve motor just like the coyote and it'll destroy it the ls is not a fair comparison it's a single overhead cam which will still outrun the coyote if you guys go back and look at the test that they did that coyote on boost but it busted the timing chain the Chevrolet LS series made 1700 horsepower the coyote can't hang with the ls with boost. Besides it ain't $30,000 to fix a junkyard 5.3 that will still outrun a coyote peace out
@@mikegimple4725 i love how much in denial you GM fanboys are. The Camaro Can’t compete with the mustang so you got to compare apples to oranges over a different class of car 😂 imagine you think you’re smart comparing a mustang to a mid engine car that’s costs a lot more. There’s plenty of mustangs that are faster than C8s anyways if you give them room to stretch their legs and don’t sissy out on a 1/8 track because you know you’re gonna lose.
I love my gen 3 coyote. Put it on the dyno and straight from the factory it made 412 wheel horsepower. Now I've added a Roush X pipe, steeda CAI and an E85 tune. I'll find out my new numbers next month which I'll post on my channel.
Yea I just sold my mustang still sad. Was a 2017 ecoboost. With just an intercooler, downpipe and a tune thing made 403 wheel with 460 tq but made over 400 tq at about 2000 rpms. Funny how the small ecoboost engines are torque monsters while big displacement boosted coyotes are hp monsters. Wonder why coyotes for making so much hp make so little tq till it's way up high.
Amazing video! Grew up loving Chevy's, started with an old C10 with a built block, now I bought a 2021 GT with the 10 speed and man does these 5.0s put in work!
There’s always a eco booster out there waiting in the shadows to justify their purchase vs a 5.0. Don’t get me wrong, I love the eco boost platforms and respect the power they can make but stock vs stock the 4cyl mustang doesn’t stand a chance vs a 5.0. Now with a tune and a boost controller they are absolutely faster than a stock 5.0 but both at max bolt on or max boosted the 5.0 will win every time even built N/A 5.0 vs bolt on eco boost leans towards the 5.0🤷🏾♂️
@@xxxroberttheking yeah ur right! But I’m the one lurking in the shadows! Hahah my stock engine with Upgraded turbo and intercooler is maxed out at 420whp. And yeah stock vs stock a 5.0 wins hands down but the ecoboost mustang actually keeps up pretty well and almost ties in a 1/8th mile race. So the ecoboost are impressive for being a 4 cylinder! Right now I’m building a 1000whp ecoboost mustang! Gonna be sick!! But seriously people under estimate the ecoboost mustang! And I’ve raced scat packs and 5.0s and I’ve won! My new build is gonna be a one a kind!! I’ve always been a 4 cylinder turbo guy so when mustang ecoboost came out I had to have it and with the 10 speed transmission it’s pretty impressive even at stock! But just with upgraded turbo and intercooler you can reach 420whp on the stock engine. And for way less money then a 5.0 or scat pack cost. I seriously love my car so much even at the 420whp limit. It rips!
@@Paper.Power.Politics I understand your enthusiasm, but with the right amount of money, anything can make good power. However, spend the same money on the coyote and I can almost guarantee the 5.0 will make 1500+ hp. Funnily enough, the 2.3-2.5 Duratec engines are thought to be a 5.0 cut in half. They also have a high volumetric efficiency. My n/a 2.5 has a volumetric efficiency of around 105-110, just like the Coyote. I will be boosting it soon and see what it does.
@@cesarpalmos8235 yeah I agree , yiur 100% right. A mustang ecoboost is just what I wanted tho. To each there own. But My build is not the normal ecoboost build. I’m using a sleeved 2.0 focus ST block with the 2.3 internals. The focus ST 2.0 block is way stronger then the 2.3. I’m also using a 4 port head vs the stock single exhaust port head. Everything is custom spec forged. Goin along with a xona xr 105 69s turbo and turbo kit made by ets. Also gonna be dual injection port and direct. It’s a extensive build and built to handle way more then the stock 2.3 is built for. Also getting the 10 speed transmission built , also gonna be dual clutch like the 10 speed on the 5.0 is. Using the best metals and parts you can get for the build. Like custom spec Darton sleeves, custom spec traum pistons, custom cvt piper cams, 4330 Callie’s enforcer rods , coated bushing with upgraded 3.5 rod bolts and a upgraded h13 tool steel wrist pins. It’s gonna be sick!!!!!
Can you compare a 5.0 coyote to a 5.4 dohc (ideally from gt500) and maybe throw in 4.6 dohc if they are close enough. Debating on what to swap into my new edge. Thanks!
Love that your videos on cars are objective. Keep up the good work. Informative and factually grounded. Both Coyote and LS1 are FUN and fast. I tracked a 2014 Mustang GT for some years, as well as a 2018 Camaro SS 1LE. And that experience makes me want a SS 1LE chassis with a Gen3 Coyote power plant. Love the how planted and competent Camaro chassis is, but I miss how well the Coyote revved out.
@@scottearl7687 Better? Well that’s debatable. I’ve seen 5.7 ram trucks give a some LS guys big problems at the track. I agree with you on the LS platform is definitely cheaper though. The after market support for the hemi isn’t as large as it is with Ford and GM, so the expense makes sense. However Eric Holdner proved the older 5.7 hemi’s are more than capable of 600+ stock bottom end with the right piston ring gap. Who knows what the 5.7 Eagle would do. So there’s definitely a conversation to be had about the 5.7 itself. Let’s not take for granted that the drag pack starts life as a 5.7 block... and 7.5 second quarter is nothing to sleep on.
I'm familiar with 4-valve motorcycle engines and two valve motorcycle engines there is a pretty big difference in horsepower on the dyno and especially the cylinder heads at low lift on a flow bench the four valve flows a lot more air at low lift just my experience but this is not set in stone there's an advantage to having four small valves versus too big valves the two big valves are heavier and they will float before the four small valves float just saying
more small circles can consume more area of a larger circle they are fit in.. more valves should allow more air in and out as you open more of the cylinder with eqch breath. yamahamma made a 5 valve for q second!
I like both the Coyote and the LS for different reasons, having owned both, and I think they're equally good. The 6.4 Hemi is probably my favorite though because it feels like it has the most soul put of the 3... for the most part.
I’m a bowtie guy at heart but I’ve always been a 5.0 fan. I still believe the best sounding v8’s were the mid 80’s to early 90’ 5 liters. A really aggressive cam with 2 chamber flow masters sounds heavenly 😍
You are right on point as far as sound goes I’ve said this for years there’s nothing like the sound of a 2 chamber flow master heavy cam of five O fox body
5.0 is a great platform no doubt . But your wrong a c7 zo6 can make 1000whp bone stock with just fueling upgrade and a blower swap from the smaller stock 1.7 blower to a Ysi or f194a and make it all day reliably.
Yep, all true, but, price, availability, aftermarket support, and simplicity is why the LS is more prevalent. Good video regardless. Thanks for content.
Now that would be awesome or better yet a 7.0L (427) Coyote V8 for the Modern day Boss 429 and it would make well over 750 HP NA and it would be considered the Modern day 427 SOHC Cammer V8. Also There's the 6.2L SOHC 2V BOSS V8 as well could be considered the Modern day Cammer if done right and bump the displacement to 7.0 liters.
the ls3 makes similar to more power on boost with cam and there are heads flowing 360-380 you can buy to make 800rwhp. put forged pistons and rods and make 1100 reliably
@@losifer3867 800-950 rwhp stock bottom end ls3 light boost. 1100 forged internals, never break beating on it, 1300-1500 rwhp on stock aluminum block with aftermarket sleeves, and lsx iron block for higher power drag builds. 1200 has been dynoed from stock rotating assembly 4.8 truck ls engines. try that with a 12 to one compression 5.0 and see what happens. without e85 or race fuel and an expert tuner, over 800 power levels on pump with a coyote will explode. over 800 with any platform requires full 20000 dollar builds to live for a while regardless. you are an ls newb my friend
Would you be able to do a video discussing the progression of the GM 3.8 L V6 from its humble beginnings to where it ended up in the GNX Grand National?
Amazing break-down analysis, I would love to see the difference between the 5.0 and the 5.2 predator and Voodoo motors. From what I hear, they are all from the same family.
@MT82 Man Pedal I don't know if you all understand what I'm saying, the 4.6 and 5.4 are a part of a family of engines that are different from the Coyote platforms.
3:49 that’s not it, what your noticing is the difference between supercharging and turbocharging, not head flow differences because hellcat heads flow around 340cfm. It could be because the valve train on the coyote works better all around the rev range/ makes power higher but idk. For comparisons sake I believe the 6.4s flow around 360-380 and with a hellion twin turbo kit at 8lbs they can make 700whp
There’s more to it than cfm. The way the air flows in 2 valves has less static pressure and can flow more with less boost. It’s why Jon Kasse doesn’t like giving cfm flow numbers. He says to look at the horsepower numbers because the flow number doesn’t tell everything. If you don’t know who Jon Kasse is he’s probably the guy who’s won the Engine Masters challenge more than anyone.
Everybody says that but it’s actually very similar cost nowadays to get the same ore more power out of the 5.0. Just the initial purchase of the block from a junkyard may be cheaper due to it being older and more out there
I give Coyote motors props where they're due . You can put a ton of boost to them and they make outstanding power . When you brought up the reliability of the coyote past 600 horsepower not being that great is exactly why I made the decision for a 7.0 LSx small block ( from blueprint ) from Summit . 650 horsepower out of the box . Works with the stock truck computer . Around 10k . Very reliable . Can I say I make more horsepower per cubic inch than a mustang ? Absolutely not . Can I have 127 more cubic inches from a smaller package than a coyote ? Absolutely . 427 cubic inches with a similar foot print to the 4.8 /293 V8 . That matters . Not only that but you're not touching a complete drop in race ready 650 horsepower coyote with a warranty for 10k . Since the Godzilla 7.3 has come out you especially can't deny the influence of the LS . Godzilla 7.3 uses pretty much the same architecture . Coil near plug , long runner intake , pushrod , skirted Y block , cam in block , 6 bolt mains with cracked bearing caps . It's not a bad thing or a bad formula . The dyno results speak for themselves .
Godzilla shares nothing in common with and ls all those features you’ve pointed out have already been used in the Ford Fe series big block from 1950’s to 1960’s
I love everything about the coyote on paper, but the footprint and its complexity keep me away. It is massive from valve cover to valve cover and has 40 more moving parts, even with the "technical" advantages, it doesn't seem to hold up on a dollar to dollar basis. As things are slowly getting better with more vehicles on the road using this platform I could see myself getting more interested in a build using this platform. Ford has always been or tried to be the "high tech" American automotive manufacturer, but it seems that 99% of the time this has just equaled a higher cost to build and a more limited audience in the after market scene. I still like it. its a mechanical masterpiece, truly a work of art.
Ford also made some really cool Canadian Muscle Cars 🇨🇦 as well like the Meteor Montcalm, Meteor Rideau, Meteor Ranchero, Monarch Lucerne, Mercury M100, Mercury Econoline, and the 60 Ford Frontenac. The only worst cars Ford has ever made was the Pinto and the stupid Edsel brand that failed miserably.
Every trick in the book. DOHC, DI, VVT, super high rev, high compression and multi valves. It is quite the piece! I’m a Hemi guy but you have to give credit where it’s due.
as much as i really like the hemis they have all that power but so much weight. great cars high power just a little on the heavy side
That much out of a 5.0, it's bad azzed.

@@marcelk3847 yeah i do I think the coyote is a strong engine
@@marcelk3847 for a stock build coyote is the best american engine by far. LS and hemi only great because the simplicity but thats also limiting. i prefer a dohc engine it just makes more sense to make more power.
The second 2011 hit, and I saw Ford was releasing a 5.0 again, named a dang 'coyote' I wanted one immediately. I grew up, got a job and got a 16 GT last year, I'm super in love with the car. Bringing it out to 7200 and shifting just feels different and gives a new appreciation for cars to me. This is a seriously legendary engine, and in my opinion will go down in history of top 10 engines of all time; in America at least
Sounds awesome brother, I have a 2011 Ford F150 with a 5.0L Coyote V8 in it with 147,000 miles on it still going strong and its a beast and it sounds like a beast with the Borla ATAK exhaust on it.
@@CJColvin cool. I prefer to leave the "beast performance" to cars like my BMW. My truck is for towing and whatever else I decide to do with it, but speed definitely isn't a good quality for a real truck. RAM TRX, RAPTORS are stupid.

I enjoyed this lesson. I am a Nissan/Mitsubishi driver, but I was always curious about the Mustangs. The Coyote is a formidable beast. If I can find one overseas where I work, I may buy one.
I am a mechanic and have lots of ls and coyote engines laying around. Couple things not mentioned are cam swaps are easy on a coyote. No measuring push rod length and no need to degree the cam. Then the biggest thing I love about working on a modular engine is no accessory brackets.
Explain, in detail, how lining up 2 dots, on 2 sprockets, and hanging ONE chain, is HARDER than indexing 4 chains, on 5 sprockets, with 5 different marks. Also GM did not use a degree wheel on the million + LS engines they shipped, and neither do you have to, if you don't want to. Also, dozens of cams are available in stock base circle, require zero pushrod changes. Sounds to me like despite you being a mechanic, you've never touched and engine with a wrench, and sure as hell not a Coyote. One valve cover has more fasteners to remove than the LS cam swap total. You really don't know what the hell you're talking about, do you ?
@@jamesgeorge4874 sounds like you only play around with stock ls stuff. Put an adult size camshaft in and you start changing base circle. Put aftermarket heads on and you always check push rid length. Zero deck the block and then checking it again and ordering custom length push rods. The after that you have to degree the cam. If you think it takes a lot of time to line up a couple more dots then grab your box of crayons and your retard helmet and leave this to the pros.
@MT82 Man Pedal they’re good but aftermarket cams can be a 80~HP difference on NA builds
@@jamesgeorge4874 thank you I was about to type out the same exact thing. Dual overhead cams are a nightmare to clock. Most coyote guys just leave it alone until the timing chain snaps.
@@SuperSilvi1990 to be fair, I've done major engine work on Ford, Dodge, and GM V8's for a long time, the new Hemi, and LS family are much easier, Ford has been on a mission to make technicians life hell since 1997. You should work on the 6.7 Powerstroke, every decision made about servicing that engine, had punishment in mind. I was a pretty hardcore Ford guy, untill I started fixing them.
Coyotes definitely LOVE boost! I outrun a lot of things with a conservative setting on my blower.
Same here .. my boosted F150 breaks hearts
I love these types of videos. its fun to learn what makes the engines so great
You're correct that it's it's "easy mode" with a coyote that you don't have to go into the motor...until you do. If you're just slapping boost on one 500-700ish hp is pretty easy. But if you want to build a coyote for more it is a more sophisticated engine than the LS. The coyote in my drag car has vvt deletes and locked cams and let me tell you, I've gotten really good at degreeing cams when I decided to build a coyote. I also learned a lot more about things like cam timing and overlap messing around with these things then I ever did with sbc.
In fact, I so fell in love with the coyote I swapped on into my old camaro 😁.
So cool! 🤘 Would love to hear more about your cars :) Greetings from Finland in the nordics 👋

I have a few short video clips on my page if you're interested. I finally got around to buying a gopro camera so I should be able to post some videos of it at the dragstrip this spring. Went 10.95 at 130mph on 5psi of boost last year. My goal is low 10's this year.
Any recommendations for a “starter” car to build out that isn’t too expensive, but will give me experience actually digging into an engine?
The LS is a better engine, period.
@@StonkeyKong
Pretty much anything to your liking with a small block chevy in it - tons of different cars and pickups had them. It's a tough engine, most versions respond really well to bolt-ons, parts are cheap and everywhere, info on how to build them is everywhere. There are small block Fords and Mopars but they're a little bit less popular so not quite as much aftermarket support but still really good options.
If imports are more your thing 90s civics are still pretty plentiful and have a ton of support too. Not as much power but you don't need as much in a lighter car.
Great videos on explaining the the pros and cons of tuning modern American Muscle platforms. Keep up the great work.

@@scordatura9259 hell yeah dude... Like that gt350... Not a person on this planet that doesn't like that sound😂
@@scordatura9259 And at this point it’s pretty hard to say any engine is directly better then the other… Almost all these new muscle cars will make 800 Whp with some somewhat basic changes.
Not for long. All the electric fan boys are killing V8's. Soon we will all be driving wack electric cars that make no sexy V8 noises.
There are certain aspects that make the 5.0 better. But I still think the LS3 was the best v8 of the past 20 years. They were simple, reliable, sounded great, and can handle enough power. The newer LT series I do not like. They added all the new stuff like DI, AFM, and VVT. I would buy a 5.0L over a LT1 and do currently own a gen 3 5.0L.
Cannot disagree with you here
I'd still buy an LT over a coyote
@@james10739 why. Coyotes flow better rev higher and make more hp without a struggle. RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX. But make sure u go the 3-2-1 method like this guy said in the video to make good hp reliably
@@motorlife5239 not to mention if we’re talking end goal… the ford modular platform has been in promod cars making upwards of 3000+ Hp for almost 2 decades… the LS platform is not nearly as footed at that power level and not to mention dodge and the new HEMI is basically nonexistent at that level.

Forged pistons and better heads/cams. 1000whp stock motor is a lot easier to handle on them.
All you got to do is take the pistons out and gap the rings to 30 thousandths. Then they are good for 900 hp all day. The number one reason stock engines fail, while being boosted, is ring gap. Nobody bothers taking the pistons out and gapping the rings for boost. Before throwing 20 psi on stock gap. 🤣

Nah chief, this was a really well explained and thought out video. Father was a Chevy Man, grew up to be a Dodge/Mopar man, and learned to appreciate Ford. Right now I just love anything combustion, and badge loyalty isn't a thing anymore and grew out of that phase. I just appreciate great engineering, same can't be said for others who have their Bias. Looking forward to hearing about the Gen III/IV Hemi's. Thought I already know what's coming...price tag of a Ford, and none of the LS benefits/accomplishments. Honestly aftermarket Gen II Hemi's are a better option IMO. It hurts to say coming from a guy who loves Dodge, but I acknowledge faults when I see it. Also, would love to see a short thoughts and opinions on Ford's recent Godzilla
@berserker406 Very true. On the bright side, swapping a Godzilla into older rigs feels more justified and gives a peace of mind.

@@josefrobbins8781 have you seen what hemi style non dodge engines can do? Like proline, noonan, morrison, etc etc. Hemi & Chevy style motors still whoop ford pretty much most of the time still.
@@lordpula1193 Yep, I've heard of those guys. Sonny's and Arias are one of the greats who have experimented with the Chevy Block-Hemi Head combo, and you've got some of the greats like Brodix Chevy Blocks, John Kaase with Ford, and Keith Black for Chrysler/Dodge. So yeah I'm aware of the world of aftermarket, and the companies that build race engines.
Though the topic at hand is running a stock factory block, and finding it's limitations build or budget wise, and not using a race block. A company like Proline makes just full blown race engines, and I wouldn't even call their engine based on the Gen II Hemi, and more like a tribute to the Gen II because the Proline shares no similarities with the original Chrysler's 426 aside from the 2V Hemi Combustion chamber, the use of a 4 bolt mains, and maybe the Valve cover design.
@@josefrobbins8781 Yup so many, dart too. Sonny's is more nitrous or na based but still. Even excluding proline and most of those, chevy and hemi from factory engines still best and beat ford's engines. You have to build them but even stock for stock hemis and chevy based engines still make over 1000 hp not built. fords need to build them too otherwise they're sitting bombs. Point is whether from factory or the at the highest levels it's mostly chevy, dodge and all their counterparts. Fords is every now and then. Even then it's a ford body or chasis with a hemi or chevy swap.
PLEASE PLEASE do the 2UR-GSE. Its also a 5.0 dual overhead cam. Id love to hear your take on that mill.
Best review I've "EVER" listened to. Thank you.
I just came across this page and absolutely amazed by the knowledge.
that was great. I always thought the only way to go would be an LS swap. I'd love to do a Coyote swap on one of my Crown Vics whenever (or if it ever) wears out. But they seem so well made that they will probably outlive me.
I had a 2003 Crown Vic with 300k on it. It was my first car. Just sold it. I just had to add some oil every couple thousand miles. Changed the coil packs and spark plugs but besides only a few other minor mechanical things it runs great. The 4.6 is one of the most reliable engines ever made in America.
Get your wallet out bro
Your old vic motor will never die. You're just going to have to do it.
Ur gonna spend less than half on an ls than a coyote 5.slow. hell even the lincoln continental guys build turbo ls engines for roughly 6k rather than a bone stock coyote for12-15k
The voodoo has to be my favorite engine for its sound. My only hope is I can mess with it the same way you can a coyote
have fun with that....due to the lack of a balanceshaft to counter-act the flat-plane crank design, the 170g's of lateral movement vibration from 7250-8000 it just keeps breaking starters, bellhousings, and even in some cases breaking the track-pack oil cooler right off the side of the block...JUNK!
The first time I heard a Coyote Mustang at the track, I was hooked! Very unique & cool sound.
This was super clear and informative. Great job.
I have a 2011 F150 5.0 best truck I owned. Has 224k miles and used it for many road trips. The most I ever had the truck do, was towing my other car from STL to LV. Very reliable and smooth power delivery. I know the truck 5.0 is different than the mustang 5.0. But regardless the 5.0 is a very good motor. One day I’ll get a gen 3 10speed 😉
Present day I have a ‘12 F150 Coyote with 65,000 miles. I have an aftermarket exhaust system and it sounds just like its coupe comparison sister. Gosh I love the truck, lowering it soon and putting some love into the engine. But Im sure it’ll be very appreciative of the power I put behind that crank.

That's the tradeoff here. You get to choose the better head, or the larger block. I think I like the ohv better though. It's easier to get the GM engines to rev than it is to increase the displacement of the coyote. I also like the fact that ohv engines fit in smaller engine bays.

Takes a coyote all day to catch a stock c8 they won't even run even close to Z06 can't imagine what's going to happen when they introduce the z51 the 5.5 is an overhead valve motor just like the coyote and it'll destroy it the ls is not a fair comparison it's a single overhead cam which will still outrun the coyote if you guys go back and look at the test that they did that coyote on boost but it busted the timing chain the Chevrolet LS series made 1700 horsepower the coyote can't hang with the ls with boost. Besides it ain't $30,000 to fix a junkyard 5.3 that will still outrun a coyote peace out

There’s always a eco booster out there waiting in the shadows to justify their purchase vs a 5.0.

Now with a tune and a boost controller they are absolutely faster than a stock 5.0 but both at max bolt on or max boosted the 5.0 will win every time even built N/A 5.0 vs bolt on eco boost leans towards the 5.0🤷🏾♂️
@@xxxroberttheking yeah ur right! But I’m the one lurking in the shadows! Hahah my stock engine with
Upgraded turbo and intercooler is maxed out at 420whp. And yeah stock vs stock a 5.0 wins hands down but the ecoboost mustang actually keeps up pretty well and almost ties in a 1/8th mile race. So the ecoboost are impressive for being a 4 cylinder! Right now I’m building a 1000whp ecoboost mustang! Gonna be sick!! But seriously people under estimate the ecoboost mustang! And I’ve raced scat packs and 5.0s and I’ve won! My new build is gonna be a one a kind!! I’ve always been a 4 cylinder turbo guy so when mustang ecoboost came out I had to have it and with the 10 speed transmission it’s pretty impressive even at stock! But just with upgraded turbo and intercooler you can reach 420whp on the stock engine. And for way less money then a 5.0 or scat pack cost. I seriously love my car so much even at the 420whp limit. It rips!
@@Paper.Power.Politics I understand your enthusiasm, but with the right amount of money, anything can make good power. However, spend the same money on the coyote and I can almost guarantee the 5.0 will make 1500+ hp. Funnily enough, the 2.3-2.5 Duratec engines are thought to be a 5.0 cut in half. They also have a high volumetric efficiency. My n/a 2.5 has a volumetric efficiency of around 105-110, just like the Coyote. I will be boosting it soon and see what it does.
@@cesarpalmos8235 yeah I agree , yiur 100% right. A mustang ecoboost is just what I wanted tho. To each there own. But My build is not the normal ecoboost build.

Love that your videos on cars are objective. Keep up the good work. Informative and factually grounded. Both Coyote and LS1 are FUN and fast. I tracked a 2014 Mustang GT for some years, as well as a 2018 Camaro SS 1LE. And that experience makes me want a SS 1LE chassis with a Gen3 Coyote power plant. Love the how planted and competent Camaro chassis is, but I miss how well the Coyote revved out.

Love these videos. Modern engines are quite marvelous.
No lie, I’d love to see a comparison like this with the hemi, coyote, and LS/LT
No point ls/lt does everything the hemi does but cheaper and better
@@scottearl7687 Better? Well that’s debatable. I’ve seen 5.7 ram trucks give a some LS guys big problems at the track. I agree with you on the LS platform is definitely cheaper though. The after market support for the hemi isn’t as large as it is with Ford and GM, so the expense makes sense. However Eric Holdner proved the older 5.7 hemi’s are more than capable of 600+ stock bottom end with the right piston ring gap. Who knows what the 5.7 Eagle would do. So there’s definitely a conversation to be had about the 5.7 itself. Let’s not take for granted that the drag pack starts life as a 5.7 block... and 7.5 second quarter is nothing to sleep on.
Look up LS vs coyote shootout an you will see why LS is on top
Real niggas would know that the graphics resembles Midnight Club 2….WHAT A LEGEND💪🏾🙌🏾
Your videos have taught me so much they're very informative and interesting keep up the good work.
This was a very well done video 👍
I'm familiar with 4-valve motorcycle engines and two valve motorcycle engines there is a pretty big difference in horsepower on the dyno and especially the cylinder heads at low lift on a flow bench the four valve flows a lot more air at low lift just my experience but this is not set in stone there's an advantage to having four small valves versus too big valves the two big valves are heavier and they will float before the four small valves float just saying
That depends. BMW m43 8 valve vs m44 16 valve, intake 71g vs 2x47g, exhaust 64g vs 2x47g.
more small circles can consume more area of a larger circle they are fit in.. more valves should allow more air in and out as you open more of the cylinder with eqch breath. yamahamma made a 5 valve for q second!
I like both the Coyote and the LS for different reasons, having owned both, and I think they're equally good. The 6.4 Hemi is probably my favorite though because it feels like it has the most soul put of the 3... for the most part.

I’m a bowtie guy at heart but I’ve always been a 5.0 fan. I still believe the best sounding v8’s were the mid 80’s to early 90’ 5 liters. A really aggressive cam with 2 chamber flow masters sounds heavenly 😍
You are right on point as far as sound goes I’ve said this for years there’s nothing like the sound of a 2 chamber flow master heavy cam of five O fox body
That cold start made me spit out my drink hahahaha
I have a Gen 1 Coyote in a '12 GT making 463WHP/422WTQ. Full bolt ons, custom tune. Never been inside the motor. Plus, gets 28 mpg highway.
keep this series going bro please, i already love it
5.0 is a great platform no doubt . But your wrong a c7 zo6 can make 1000whp bone stock with just fueling upgrade and a blower swap from the smaller stock 1.7 blower to a Ysi or f194a and make it all day reliably.
Great video explaining it all. People love bashing the 5.0 without any knowledge about how engines even work.
Awesome channel dude i just learned a lot about coyote 5.0 engines
Great video as usual. Still want an LS more but Coyotes are incredible engines, well done Ford!
coyotes are great but it's a pain dropping them into anything because of their size. ford won the battle, but lost the war.
Today if I wanted a cam-in-block engine there is only once choice IMO; the 7.3 Godziira.
Yep, all true, but, price, availability, aftermarket support, and simplicity is why the LS is more prevalent.
Good video regardless. Thanks for content.
Someone gets it!
I love watching these videos and then reading the comments about both sides going at it
Recently found your channel, Great one you’ve got here.
Imagine a 6.2L Coyote 😮💨
Yeah that would be nice, but I would settle for a 5.2 Coyote; standard for the Mustang!
Now that would be awesome or better yet a 7.0L (427) Coyote V8 for the Modern day Boss 429 and it would make well over 750 HP NA and it would be considered the Modern day 427 SOHC Cammer V8. Also There's the 6.2L SOHC 2V BOSS V8 as well could be considered the Modern day Cammer if done right and bump the displacement to 7.0 liters.
the ls3 makes similar to more power on boost with cam and there are heads flowing 360-380 you can buy to make 800rwhp. put forged pistons and rods and make 1100 reliably
Exactly
Without forced induction I doubt it. Also I better get higher horse for a 6.2 liter.
@@losifer3867 800-950 rwhp stock bottom end ls3 light boost. 1100 forged internals, never break beating on it, 1300-1500 rwhp on stock aluminum block with aftermarket sleeves, and lsx iron block for higher power drag builds. 1200 has been dynoed from stock rotating assembly 4.8 truck ls engines. try that with a 12 to one compression 5.0 and see what happens. without e85 or race fuel and an expert tuner, over 800 power levels on pump with a coyote will explode. over 800 with any platform requires full 20000 dollar builds to live for a while regardless. you are an ls newb my friend
@@losifer3867 Stroker LS3s and LS7's routinely make 600+ at the tire N/A. I know this from experience
But ya see fords bottom end can handle up to 800 hp safely from the factory
Great video 💯
Would you be able to do a video discussing the progression of the GM 3.8 L V6 from its humble beginnings to where it ended up in the GNX Grand National?
Amazing break-down analysis, I would love to see the difference between the 5.0 and the 5.2 predator and Voodoo motors. From what I hear, they are all from the same family.
They are, even the 4.6 and 5.4s are as well. All modular family engines
@@jmac2o229 The 4.6 and 5.4 are from a different family of engines.
@MT82 Man Pedal I don't know if you all understand what I'm saying, the 4.6 and 5.4 are a part of a family of engines that are different from the Coyote platforms.
I think the voodoo uses a flatplane (screamer) crankshaft
@@sidneysanders5726 It does, although it is still a different orientation from the GM 5.5 crankshaft.
3:49 that’s not it, what your noticing is the difference between supercharging and turbocharging, not head flow differences because hellcat heads flow around 340cfm. It could be because the valve train on the coyote works better all around the rev range/ makes power higher but idk. For comparisons sake I believe the 6.4s flow around 360-380 and with a hellion twin turbo kit at 8lbs they can make 700whp
There’s more to it than cfm. The way the air flows in 2 valves has less static pressure and can flow more with less boost. It’s why Jon Kasse doesn’t like giving cfm flow numbers. He says to look at the horsepower numbers because the flow number doesn’t tell everything. If you don’t know who Jon Kasse is he’s probably the guy who’s won the Engine Masters challenge more than anyone.
Awesome video!
Very nivce video, thanks for uploading. You just got a new subscriber. And now I have a craving for a 5.0 LOL
The 5.0 seems like a great engine if you don't ever have to work on them 🙄
Lol, because they're too difficult to work on? Sounds like that's on you, man.
I'll still take the LS for reliability and endless catalog to build power for pennies on the dollar compared to the coyote. Love what's ford does tho!
Everybody says that but it’s actually very similar cost nowadays to get the same ore more power out of the 5.0. Just the initial purchase of the block from a junkyard may be cheaper due to it being older and more out there
@@tylerking27 it's waaay cheaper to do NA on a LS than a Coyote/Voodoo
Excellent video brother! thanks!
this video is phenomenally made
I give Coyote motors props where they're due . You can put a ton of boost to them and they make outstanding power . When you brought up the reliability of the coyote past 600 horsepower not being that great is exactly why I made the decision for a 7.0 LSx small block ( from blueprint ) from Summit . 650 horsepower out of the box . Works with the stock truck computer . Around 10k . Very reliable . Can I say I make more horsepower per cubic inch than a mustang ? Absolutely not . Can I have 127 more cubic inches from a smaller package than a coyote ? Absolutely . 427 cubic inches with a similar foot print to the 4.8 /293 V8 . That matters . Not only that but you're not touching a complete drop in race ready 650 horsepower coyote with a warranty for 10k . Since the Godzilla 7.3 has come out you especially can't deny the influence of the LS . Godzilla 7.3 uses pretty much the same architecture . Coil near plug , long runner intake , pushrod , skirted Y block , cam in block , 6 bolt mains with cracked bearing caps . It's not a bad thing or a bad formula . The dyno results speak for themselves .
Godzilla shares nothing in common with and ls all those features you’ve pointed out have already been used in the Ford Fe series big block from 1950’s to 1960’s
I love everything about the coyote on paper, but the footprint and its complexity keep me away. It is massive from valve cover to valve cover and has 40 more moving parts, even with the "technical" advantages, it doesn't seem to hold up on a dollar to dollar basis. As things are slowly getting better with more vehicles on the road using this platform I could see myself getting more interested in a build using this platform. Ford has always been or tried to be the "high tech" American automotive manufacturer, but it seems that 99% of the time this has just equaled a higher cost to build and a more limited audience in the after market scene. I still like it. its a mechanical masterpiece, truly a work of art.
Yeah as far as swaps into other chassis is the valve cover width makes it not possible.
@@TurboV8boi literally have to build the chassis around the engine, or truck
Ford also made some really cool Canadian Muscle Cars 🇨🇦 as well like the Meteor Montcalm, Meteor Rideau, Meteor Ranchero, Monarch Lucerne, Mercury M100, Mercury Econoline, and the 60 Ford Frontenac. The only worst cars Ford has ever made was the Pinto and the stupid Edsel brand that failed miserably.
Great video!!!
this makes me feel good about my little gen 1
