Eight Stack has a Coyote kit in development ... Yes we look forward to that as well.

I know that Hollywood Hot Rods built the Raybestos 32 Ford and re-machined some 427 sohc cammer rocker covers for the Coyote. With a 8 stack system that would look awesome under the hood of a Cobra...

Yes direct injection down the road... but I have to imagine we are 4 years out for that.

I have a really good friend who is a top engineer at ford, can't say his name, a few others on here know him as well, he told us they have some coyotes right now with direct injection as well as a few other goodies on it, he said the way they can tune this engine with there new programs, it easily has 600hp potential on race gas, he said that the direct injection and these heads along with there new tunes will take this engine to another level. He did say about 3 to 4 years out like you said, but it will be worth the wait, Also they can improve mpg even more and now its gets like 26mpg, could you imagine 500 hp and 32 mpg highway. Plus the engine fully dressed is 430pds.

I believe when the direct injection technology emerges it will just mean a head swap and ecu upgrade. So it's not like the orphans the 4.6 engines have become.

I still think 30+mpg is a safe bet on this setup. If you run it consistent over a real distance.

Thanks all.

Ford lists engine weight as 444 lbs. it's light, and very nimble. Also very low profile oil pan for tons of clearance. The other thing is ow smooth it runs, does not budge as you rev. It will mean enhanced reliability for the whole car since it is not shaking itself apart.

We have her listed at 59.9k. That's a bit off list. There's wiggle room.

How much is a retro-fit, with and without transmission assuming you stay with TKO 600

Into a BDR? There are some footbox changes in the new cars that allow this thing to fit. Look at where the Coyote sits in a BDR vs. in an SPF

But here's a few shots and a startup video... needs a home.



















Jay, Beautiful car! Coyote's Lookin' good! I'm lovin' those mirrors man!
