Ford Performance GODZILLA 7.3L Crate Engine - all the details!

[@matthewslattery7799]

A year ago i recall some youtubers dismissed this engine as a truck one off that will have no support. Ford Performance is not only developing a control pack but working on a Megazilla variant! 😃

[@Performanceracing]

Great point!

[@csbartonorgan83]

This would be awesome in a first-gen Lightning 😎🤘

[@isaacv1306]

You read my mind lol

[@josereynaga12]

Someone is doing it ok the Facebook lightning page

[@cesargomez4911]

I know someone locally who did his second gen, makes me want to do my first gen!

[@core2duodell]

I’ve been wanting to put this in a Bronco since the rumors of the Godzilla came out

[@Performanceracing]

Do it!

[@sheldonbosch7340]

This would be perfect in my 1979 f-100 short box

[@paullane7489]

I’m very excited to hear all this from Ford Performance!! First I’ve heard about them selling the blocks and heads separately. This should result in some fast Fords!! 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍

[@dougdelong6161]

How about you guys actually release the controller pack and FEAD setup before talking about the next version? Ready to order but can't get the parts needed for a build. GMPP and Mopar seem to have this figured out...

[@unbreakable1761]

I have a 71 Ford Galaxie that I was gifted as a project. Would love to see something like this in. It would definitely be a fun cruiser.

[@grandcrappy]

You bet, you could have a 13 second sedan for about $15k including car.

[@eddylee587]

This is just Awesome!!! Saw a video, Paul's performance in stock trim running 10.90's.....in a Mustang😁. Just imagine what a tuner can do with some tweaking!!! Gotta love it!!!

[@Performanceracing]

Right on!

[@grandcrappy]

Goid job Ford, should be strong demand for this mill and time will tell it's reliability.

[@forcedair92gt94]

All that run stand needs is a kirkey seat and cup holder LOL

[@MCCMCKnyte]

THIS is what is going into my Shelby Daytona Kit! Which is my dream car, I vow to have sitting in my garage before I die. I was going to go with a 427, but this... this is too hard to pass up!

15 seconds in & afterwards I knew I must have this engine in my obs, greatness impressive.

“For the racers out there...” I’m a Ford boy through and through but I was also raised around all types of racing. There’s only ONE Godzilla in the race world my friends and that’s a RB26 powered Nissan Skyline👌

[@wakeupamerica2024]

Try pulling anything with that skyline...

[@chrishansen7004]

Would be cool to Godzilla swap some Chevs.... Pretty sure since this is such a modern engine and that 10 speed it would be faster and way more fuel efficient than most cammed out stalled 5.3's

[@halseyknox]

Be nice to turn the tables on the Chevy guys with a Ford engine swap in a El Camino or Camaro.....personally I wouldn't waste my time pissing off chevy guys but, kiddos to those that would😁

Thinking about pulling the 383 stroker out of my 69 Chevelle...🤗

[@yaboykris2118]

One of these days, I’m putting this in my dads old 92 F150. If they guy who owns it sells it to me.

[@ThanenJ]

Is it not your dads truck anymore? Or, are you just referring to your Dad being reluctant to sell it to you? lol

[@yaboykris2118]

@@ThanenJ my Dad sold it to my uncle who kept it as a work truck, then my uncle gave it to his friend who is less fortunate for free about 7 years ago. I told my uncle to contact him to tell him when he’s ready to sell it that I’d buy it. I could get any 92 f150 but I want that one for sentimental reasons since I basically grew up in that truck and it was the first truck I ever drove when I was like 7 (lived in a farm area) I wanted to make it a street beast and it’s kinda a dream of mine. I love that truck.

[@yaboykris2118]

@@ThanenJ it’s a single cab long bed 2wd work truck. Has the inline-6 in it hence why I want to Godzilla swap it lol

[@ThanenJ]

@@yaboykris2118 That's bad ass. I hope you can get it, it had one heck of a story behind it. A godzilla motor would take the cake. 👍

[@LsxDenali]

Only modern FoMoCo off the shelf engine I would take!...looks like a LS/hemi hybrid. Ford was smart in thinking aftermarket support on this one!

[@BobSmith-mc7uq]

Be interesting to see how far they can punch this block out to.

[@TripAMD]

Maybe around 460 tops. Its stroke is about maxed-out now.

[@MaximumHeresy]

According to the dissembled videos I have seen one shop puts it around 480. They did say it was possible to go all the way out to 500 but longevity issues would come into play.

[@MTCKIE68]

Can this motor be put into the F150 with ease or a ton of modifications

[@jonathanparker5375]

My God. He mentioned this monster going inside a fox body. Wow!

[@blueschild61]

Propane? I have an F-600 4x4 dump that's decked out for firewood, but it came with the 370 Lima. I would buy a Godzilla if propane was an option like the 6.2. Anything is better than the Lima though. Anything.

[@DennisBohannan]

I want that in a early 70 flatbed

Great company , there new building around the corner is even nicer

Im more interested in how good i can make it forr towing. F 350 4x4 extra cab long bed. Thanks, JMHO.

[@shenaniganswithmark]

So much want... need!

[@MrUltraworld]

That's a ton of development $$$'s for what amounts to a crate engine with a pretty limited market.

[@jpogigtxcr1778]

That’s why they already selling and advertising the crate version. Not too many buys an f250, and even within that model, it competes with a diesel engine.

[@dond5103]

Someone needs to buy the rarest Camaro ever made and put a killer Godzilla in it. Personally I am considering a '67 c10 short bed with a Godzilla.

[@ONTHEEDGEFRED]

I'm the 1st one to say your vehicle, your money, your time, do what you want, but, I personally wouldn't waste a perfectly good Ford engine on any piece of shit Chevrolet body/frame. I know payback's a bitch but just saying.

[@GiftHorse123]

I've got the Godzilla in my F250 with the 10 spd tranny. It's a beast. BTW, why is this guy wearing a mask?

[@minivanmaster]

We have an ongoing pandemic, either a workplace order or a government mandate depending on location

@@mattl2k6 So you know..America is a #1 tourist destination, we would have covid worse than anywhere else in the world, also we per capita make more money than anyone else in the world per person, we are a free people , we travel around, work harder, socialize more than any other country in the world as well. So you say your point like you hate America because we have more cases than anyone else. We are as a whole are just way more active than all other places, sorry that everyone want comply to a quarantine life like they want us to...you probably dont quarantine as much as you should either but like to point your hypocritical little finger at all of us.

[@robertdickerson4460]

Electric goes off nice setup for turning lights back on ?

[@pablotharpalo5685]

I wonder how this compares to a well built 427w with EFI and cool near plug etc. Trying to decide between the two for a mustang. Everyone knows the 427, but 445 was a common FE stroker kit 🤔

[@pablotharpalo5685]

For comparison, the new 7x engine is almost exactly the same size as an FE and they make FE style valve covers for it now. I think it would be pretty badass

[@mlp-hot-rod5824]

I wonder why Ford Performance doesn't take something like a 1970's truck or wagon, restomod it with the GZ inside and take it to SEMA to show what can be done. GM & Mopar already do.

[@wakeupamerica2024]

Someone did do that

Hello. I am considering using this engine on my f100, but would like to use the tremec manual gearshift (magnum). There was a comment in the video that the control pack is configured for the automatic 10-speed transmission. what would this new control pack be? this has already been released? to use this engine with manual gearbox, it will be necessary to install a flywheel, which do you recommend? thanks for listening.

Either. This or the new 6.8 coming out will be in my soon to be old gt500 or any sedan lol

Amateur question from a greenhorn, I've heard heard that can't bolt the 7.3L to a manual transmission is that true? Thanks in advance!

[@NP-rh3dt]

The godzilla has the same bolt pattern as the modular and coyote engines, both of which can factory with manual transmissions. You can physically bolt a manual transmission to a 7.3, it's getting the engine computer that may be difficult.
