![]() From those we've talked to that have done the Coyote swap in a vintage Mustang, all of them have used the Ford Performance Control Pack system, but if you're looking for something with more race-oriented features (data logging, and so on) there are alternatives like the AEM and Holley HP systems. It allows for more tuning options, but is more of a race-oriented piece and quite simply overkill for street use. The AEM system requires the Control Pack wiring to already be in place and swaps the Ford PCM for the AEM unit with a wiring adapter. All of the other systems mentioned must have the cams locked. However, only Ford Racing's Control Pack retains the variable valve timing. Thats right I have successfully blown up my 2nd engine with only 5,500 miles Looks like the engine starved of oil and spun some bearings along with. Besides the Ford Performance Control Pack wiring option there are several other wiring alternatives that will get your Coyote up and running, including those from FAST, Holley, and AEM. Ford's latest version of its Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS), until just recently, was not able to be bypassed by simple handheld tuners as in years past. One of the early headaches for those blazing a trail to be the first with a Coyote 5.0L under their hood was wiring. ![]() The Coyote quickly became Ford's media darling as the Mustang made waves, the engine found its way into Ford's hot-selling F-series pickup truck, and later found its way into the Ford Performance Parts Catalog with a custom harness to allow installation in just about anything with four wheels. The Coyote's cylinder head design, camshafts, and trick electronic valve timing control (each cam independently controlled) meant this new modular not only made good power, but actually had usable torque down low, something the Mustang was missing since its pushrod days. So when the Coyote 5.0L DOHC modular hit the ground under the hood of the 2011 Mustang with 412 hp, people noticed! Over 400 hp without the use of a supercharger had Ford fans running to their dealers for testdrives. It would take adding a supercharger and good internals for the debut of the 2003-2004 "Terminator" Cobra to get even close to 400 hp (the engine was rated at 390 hp). The four-valve DOHC version of the 4.6L found in the same year's Cobra model was good for 305 hp. It's now easier than ever to get a modern engine fitted to a vintage Mustang and there's no argument that the 5.0L dual overhead cam (DOHC) from the 2011 to current Mustang GT, affectionately known as the "Coyote" modular V-8, is the engine of choice today.Įarly modular engine offerings were rather anemic in their power offerings, with the original 4.6L two-valve in the 1996 Mustang GT, offering just 215 hp. When you consider today's all-aluminum engines with multiple valves, overhead cams, and six-speed (or better) transmissions that make more power than the big-blocks we croon over from the '60s, it is easy to see why these modern engines are ending up in more and more vintage engine swaps. Much like carburetion and four-speed manual transmissions actuated by mechanical linkage, the pushrod V-8 engine was replaced due to its inefficiencies that cost it performance, fuel mileage, and even handling/braking. Ford hasn't produced a production engine with a cam-in-block design that actuates the valves via pushrods and rocker arms since 2001 (and that would be the 5.0L Explorer for those keeping track at home). ![]() 5.Pushrod engines can be so 20th century.5.0L Coyote Air Conditioning kit available.Does not include an alternator, for alternator kit.Vehicle harness and PCM not included-can be used with Ford Performance M-6017-M50B Control Pack AND aftermarket transmission controller (4R70, 6R80, or similar).Engine mount bosses and bell housing mount patterns common to 4.6L modular engines.Includes automatic transmission engine harness and flex plate or manual transmission engine harness and dual-mass flywheel.Mustang GT 409 stainless-steel tubular exhaust manifold on the RIGHT SIDE ONLY.High-flow aluminium cylinder heads, dual overhead camshaft (DOHC), four valves per cylinder, variable intake and exhaust camshaft timing. ![]() 80 mm single bore "drive by wire", electronic throttle body with variable runner control.A tuned composite intake manifold provides efficient air delivery and weight savings.Longer, 12 mm head bolts for a higher clamp load Coyote swapping your Ford Mustang can be a daunting task but since the release of the Coyote engine, here at Late Mode Restoration we have done our fair share of swaps and research on the modifications required to fox body mustang, SN95, and even S197 Mustang.Forged steel crankshaft Aluminum block which features plasma transferred wire arc spray weld liner coating.Sintered steel connecting rods as used on BOSS302 Mustang.
