Ford's new engines
Does anyone have any inside info on the new 5.0L Coyote engine and the 6.2L Boss aside from what is being reported in Left Lane?
I was wondering if the 5.0 is the same block casting as the old 302 or is it a slightly different displacement? The article is reporting that it will have 4 valves per cylinder. Why develop a new motor when the 5.4L could have been adapted to run 4 valves per cylinder? The Ecoboost appears to promise the same numbers as the 5.0L, so whats the point? Tim |
The 5.0 will not be the same block as the old 302...its going to be a new modular motor...not a pushrod type....It will be without the turbos...there by reducing the maintanance or repair expenses over the turbo v-6 eco boost...which is the reason for offering both....i'm guessing at this...but better mileage than the 5.4 hence the retirement of it.....and not as good of mileage as the eco boost v-6....therefore a reason for it.....

This modular 5.0 has been around for awhile now. Ford Racing Performance Parts [M-6007-R50*]

Is it a continuation of the 5.0L "cammer" they have had out for a few years now?
Well that answers my question then, good to see they are using it. |
HoLy CRUD...thats an expensive crate motor
|
Didn't they do the 4 valve per cylinder thing in the early Navigators on the 5.4?
|
yep....navi's and cobras.....went away in the early 2000's i think
|
Oh yeah, I forgot about the Cobras. Thanks.
