New projects are given code names. The new Mustang at the time was getting a completely new engine, not borrowed from another vehicle. And that code name was/is Coyote
I have a 2013 ford f-150 supercrew. It has the 5.0 in it, so its considered a coyote than?
YUP!
I had one in my 2011, and also have one in my 2013, it's the only engine that I wanted for my F150.
They're not tuned to run as fast as they are in the Mustang, but more like truck tuning for more torque at lower RPM's. Though as you probably know, they do run pretty well.
Also still had a larger engine that they offered for the F150, the 6.2 Liter, so I think that may be another reason to turn down the Coyote in the F150
Have had my truck for a month now and love it. Have you done any mods to it yet?
I'm not real big on that stuff.
I did ad my own pin stripe, vent shade on all of the doors, stainless steel running boards, FLowmaster Series 70 exhaust, and I had 50 of these decals made up, and have those on both front doors, and one on the tail gate.

Do you have any of those decals left, I would love to buy a few if so

I have about 30 left.
I can't PM you my information since your a new member.
I need to find out how to give you my address. I take cash or check, and the decals are $6 each for FTE mombers.

The 5.0*L (4951*cc, 302*cid)[10] "Coyote" V8 is the latest evolution of the Modular engine.[11] Ford engineers needed to design a V8, specifically for the Mustang GT, that would compete with the GM 6.2L LS3 used in the new Chevrolet Camaro, and the new Chrysler 6.4L Hemi ESF in the Charger, Challenger, and Grand Cherokee. This engine had to remain close to the same physical size of the outgoing 4.6, and share other specifications with it such as bore spacing, deck height, bell housing bolt pattern, etc. in order for the engine to utilize existing Modular production line tooling. The result was the 5.0 Coyote, which produced roughly the same amount of power as its competitors, but with a much smaller displacement. To strengthen the block enough to handle increased output, webbing was extensively used as reinforcement in the casting, rather than increasing the thickness of the walls. The intake plenum was also situated low between the two cylinder banks to meet the height constraint, thus the alternator traditionally placed low and center was moved to the side of the engine. It shares the 4.6*L's 100*mm (3.937*in) bore spacing and 227*mm (8.937*in) deck height,[12] while bore diameter and stroke have increased to 92.2mm (3.629*in) and 92.7mm (3.649*in), respectively. The engine also retains the 4.6*L's 150.7*mm (5.933*in) connecting rod length, which produces a 1.62:1 rod to stroke ratio.[13] The firing order has been changed from that shared by all previous Modular V8s (1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8) to that of the Ford Flathead V8 (1-5-4-8-6-3-7-2).[13] Compression ratio is 11.0:1, and despite having port fuel injection (as opposed to direct injection) the engine can still be run on 87 octane gasoline.
The Coyote features all new 4V DOHC cylinder heads that have shifted the camshafts outboard, which allowed for a compact roller finger follower setup with remote hydraulic valve lash adjusters and improved (raised) intake port geometry. The result is an intake port that outflows the Ford GT intake port by 4 percent and the Yates D3 (NASCAR) intake port up to 0.472" (12*mm) lift, which is the maximum lift of the Coyote's intake cams. Engine redline is 7000 rpm.[13]
The Coyote is Ford's first implementation of its cam-torque-actuated (CTA) Twin Independent Variable Cam Timing (Ti-VCT) in a V8 engine, which allows the power-train control module (PCM) to advance and retard intake and exhaust cam timing independently of each other, providing improved power, fuel economy and reduced emissions. The engine is assembled in Ford's Essex Engine Plant in Windsor, Ontario, using existing Modular tooling.[14]
Sorry, wasn't trying to one-up anyone, merely trying to provide a detailed answer to the OP's question.
Besides I found it interesting that the Coyote is an INDY inspired engine

No problem at all. That was way more than I found when I was lurking around for an answer.
