Default 5.0 Coyote Crate Motor!

from Jalopnik.com:
It's A 5.0 In A Box, Baby!

The new 5.0-liter V8 beating heart of the 2011 Ford Mustang GT will be available August 15th as a crate engine from Ford Racing Performance Parts. The new 5.0-in-a-box carries a suggested retail price of $6,999.00.

FRPP's web site lists the crate motor as part # M-6007-M50. The notes indicate the big crate motor'll deliver the same 412 HP and 390 lb-ft o' torque found in the production 2011 Mustang GT. Here's the vital stats:

Ford Racing 5.0L 4V Mustang Crate Engine Stats:
Ford Racing's new all-aluminum 5.0L Mustang crate engine is a modern 5.0L 32-valve DOHC V-8 that uses advanced features like Twin Independent Variable Camshaft Timing (Ti-VCT) to deliver 412+ horsepower @ 6500 rpm and 390 ft.-lb.+ of torque @ 4250 rpm (with premium fuel)

11.0:1 Compression ratio
Lightweight aluminum cylinder block features cross-bolted main bearing caps and thick main bearing bulkheads for bottom-end strength
Piston-cooling jets, optimized oil drainback and windage control improve high-rpm performance
Deep sump oil pan with 8qt capacity
Tuned composite intake manifold provides efficient air delivery and weight savings
80 mm single bore "drive by wire" throttlebody
Four-valve-per-cylinder aluminum heads with roller-finger followers reduce friction
Includes manual transmission engine harness and flywheel
Vehicle harness and PCM not included
Use our NEW wiring, PCM and installation kit M-6017-A504V designed for street rod/project car installation.
Does not include alternator, for alternator kit see M-8600-M50ALT
Engine mount bosses and bellhousing mount pattern common to 4.6L modular engines.
Direct replacement for 2011 Mustangs with engine code BG-397-AA
Photo and specs may vary. These features apply for engine code BG-397-AA. Engines are this build code or newer while supplies last.
Engine weight: 444 lbs
We'll take two please.

Who's gonna put one in their truck first?

It almost makes me want to do an Engine swap on my truck. However, I'd like the eco-boost V6 ( I do mostly highway driving) the one in my Moms' Lincoln MKS is just sick.

Plus I am jealous of Her and my eldest Sisters (Fusion) Sync systems

If I do a swap and it isn't for the same 5.4L (if this one craps out, for example) it would be fore the EcoBoost V6. Need to find some tuners though. I'd bet it wouldn't be too hard to get somewhere in the range of 400/400 with that thing and still get 5 more mpg.

You think the EB 3.5L is sick in the MKS and Taurus. It isn't even at the motors potential due to the drivetrain not being able to withstand much more power.

Put that EB 3.5L behind one of our trucks and I'd love to see the numbers this bad boy could push.

EDIT: Either way, I'd take a 5.0L Coyote or the EB 3.5L, I ain't greedy. All depends on the costs to drop them in.

Default Supercharge your 5.4L and get 500 HP

If you want horsepower in your F-150, talk to the guys at Hennessey Performance.
http://www.hennesseyperformance.com/f150hpe500.html

Someone on one of the F-150 websites posted the finished results of an awesome twin screw supercharger conversion. It might cost a little more, but you get way more horsepower at much lower RPMs. You don't have to buy a new transmission. Or maybe our 6-speed automatics can be programmed to accomdate an engine that revs over 6,000 RPM to get 412 HP. Somehow I don't think they were designed to do that.

I think the turnkey Hennessey Performance conversion for the F-150 was in the range of $15,000.

Yeah, as it currently stands, Ford doesn't have a transaxle that can handle more than the Taurus SHO's power rating

The 11' F150 Will have the 5.0 (400/400) and the 3.5 EB (400/over 400) and may get as much as 24-25MPG

On a podcast I listen to, from Autoblog.com, one of the guys is a former Ford employee whose heard from former co-workers that the 3.5 EB has made 600hp on the dyno reliably. the potential is there.

My current plans are to save up and wait a year after the new engines are introduced to let the hysteria die down, and give the aftermarket a chance to come up with improvements, then get an EB Extended Cab 4x4, with Sync of course. Should have enough saved up to buy outright.

And some people say the pickup is endangered. Shows what they know.

I love my truck, but that engine in a light weight notch back fox body would be the cat's *****. I could just tell everyone it was a STOCK 5.0...and would not be lying.

That's a pretty sweet motor. If I were building my FFR Roadster again, I'd most likely be getting that power plant. The Hot Rod crowd is going to be diggin this motor. I have a feeling.
