Detailed 2500+HP Coyote V8 Engine Teardown - What We Found After Going 200+MPH Back To Back!

[@Airman..]

LS guy here.. gotta appreciate the engineering went into designing this platform

[@SloppyMechanics]

indeed, high fives all around

[@barryfoster6265]

The coyote is definitely different! It performs extremely, I’m not a ford guy either, but I’m extremely impressed with the coyote

[@jasonmajere2165]

Surprised what they are doing with stock block and heads.

[@TheMugwump1]

Very cool shit. As someone who has no favorite Make and has owned everything from a 77 Caprice Estate wagon to an 02 Subaru WRX or a 12 Mustang GT and currently a German hairdresser 21 TTRs with over 600 HP among many others, I always knew the Coyote was an amazing platform. They can make insane HP with forced induction. They sound amazing. The single downside is size. That's it. EDIT: WAIT! Ok so you might need a clean room and some advanced knowledge to rebuild one. heh.

[@nkreigline01]

100%

[@jerrywaston6842]

Coyotes are becoming a force to reckon with and i believe they will end up being one of the greatest engine platforms especially in the Ford racing world... Coyote FTW!

[@ZOROASTED]

I'm more excited about a na coyote in a mid rear car, or fr, for circuit racing.

[@tkc2406]

GTD my friend, not NA or mid engine but a track monster nonetheless

[@MyNameStanc0l]

@@ZOROASTEDcoyotes are better suited with boost. If you like the n/a stuff that’s all gm

I can’t believe that this level of coyote didn’t have billet cam caps.

Yes I agree

Same

[@The1502flash]

If you could have 2900 HP in your race/street car and not have to buy all the regular high dollar parts………. I’m in.

[@jafo49]

seems like a strange part to break especially after some time running. Any known reasons for breaking.

[@mikeadams42]

@@jafo49I wonder if it was fatigue. The boost going through the heads, plus the rpm they run the engine at. It could have been a flaw in the casting, from the factory. Being that these are mass produced parts. That’s only thing I can think of.

[@poboyfabs4088]

Dude I just want to say thank y’all for doing these coyote videos! I started at Ford right when the coyote started and I recommended that engine to every one

[@sameerajgaonkar23]

That's some clean , precise and honest tear down ... Respect ..!

[@craigfiles7067]

This just shows if you maintain your engine through proper maintenance & checking data between runs you will succeed & have fewer issues

I love my coyote. But holy cow. 2500 hp. That's got to be fun to drive

[@sethhughes2163]

I'm 64 years old my first 3 trucks were Fords. My first car at 16, in 76' was a 69' Chevelle SS w/ an original L-88 427 and a Muncie R-22... I worked at the local speed shop from 15 to almost 18... working on my Bosses' " COLE BLACK " Flatbottom V- drive who set the World Record in Injected BBC that held for years and years! So... needless to say, I was cemented as a Chevy guy till 2022... WHEN out of my vision appears this Coyote F- 150 truck... and Iam back to being a turncoat...lol! You three in this video, Manuel, Randy Seals, ONDGAS, and HOUSTON SYREET MONSTERS... have me ECSTATICALLY building these things like crazy!!! I cannot thank you enough for the amount of SOLID INFO, YOU GENTS HAVE SHARED... definitely an IMMEASURABLE WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE, that have allowed me my last " hurrah as it will!

Nice to be able to geek out at this level without spending my own money..! Great video men

[@GrgBuiltCoyote]

Love it! Crazy with what FFRE, Jay, and Brett were able to do with an engine that is found in your everyday Mustang. Can't wait to see the next phase, looks like you guys are going to turn it up.

[@iamSelfSufficient]

Coyotes are so fucking badass!!! I’ve been a huge fan since the gen 1. Huge game changer and I’m happy to see people finally realizing how great these engines are. Great video guys!

[@kennethwellington9547]

Nice to see the appreciation for the Coyote I'm amazed by the Gen 1 in my 12 F150.

[@Turbolag04]

Great Episode... man im really impressed . This coming from someone pushing 900whp Daily out of gen 3 coyote 6 speed (stock Engine still) Impressed on how well these block are holding up with stock parts.

[@asherogden3056]

Crazy to see this after watching cleetus put a massive smx engine in mullet and this little coyote doing exactly what hes doing at the same level, or almost better

[@daviddavis1322]

Well turns out you were correct bud!

[@Thestainxpert]

The FFRE / Real Street/ MSR Team Coyote is extremely impressive for a handful of reasons 💯 The SMX / SML engine is relatively new compared to the Coyote In regards to “engineering” I completely agree that a 300+ c.I. Engine turning 9,500+ rpm on a stock block, crank, head, etc running low 6’s @ 224+mph is EPIC 💯 Especially when door to door with an SMX / SML 400 / 540+ inch billet everything … however Steve is one ☝️ man engineering and funding the program where The Coyote program as 100+ engineers and 100’s of millions of funding … so impressive to both to say the least

[@babaoreally8220]

Cletus has been chasing these little four valves for a long time,throwing greater and greater displacement at them.These Coyotes are nasty little beasts.My 4.6 Whippled Terminator destroyed its share if modified LS’s.

[@umakemerandy3669]

Yeah at like, 800lbs less weight

[@chrisstavro4698]

4000 hp does you no good if you don't have enough tire. His 572 cid SMX rev to 9k and makes double the torque of the coyotes. Even his SML runs almost as well as his SMX with much less power.

[@barryklinedinst6233]

I love my coyote. Plenty of power for the street. Reliable and fun to drive

[@charlesholloman2400]

[@DieselAddiction]

I also run a plasma man manifold and never had any issues up to 50 psi. You will definitely need billet cam caps and ARP bolts at 65 psi. 👍

Good to see 👀 people working so well on a project

[@truckandroll989]

Less competitive racer here: ‘21 Mach 1, Twin 62s, 950whp, 6spd Manual What would your recommendations be to reduce stress on the motor. Your comment regarding how hard the 6r80 could be got me thinking. What can I do to the driveline, while remaining a stick to help it live longer? If that isnt the best place for longevity what is one thing youd otherwise recommend? So far it has been good fuel, ensuring its up to temp before any abuse, and frequent oil changes. This car is driven on the street with maybe monthly track outings but sometimes more.

[@thenameforcorey2261]

It's so cool to see u guys collaborate on video like this. I'm not a domestic guy but I build alot of newer mustangs for a living and its amazing what that platform can do

[@jonathanallen9205]

mod motors man. total game changer for ford. chevy guy here. but was so impressed with what a bolt on can do

[@ProjectFairmont]

Really interesting. To me the main thing that was right with these engines from the beginning (modular motors) was the stability of the bottom end. Cylinder length being a weakness at this level with the 8.937” deck height.

[@AdamMGTF]

These videos are amazing. Would it be possible to add a subtitle with metric measurements for all of us none Americans? I understand it would be extra production cost and your main customers are in the USA. But the rest of the planet pretty much would be so grateful if you could. Especially when talking displacement and stroke and stuff.

[@Bill-flatplanefool]

Would it be possible to come up with a timing belt conversion ? Also can you talk more about how the shift points in a 6r80 can hurt the engine?

[@chipcurrey653]

This isn't using a 6r80 With the TH400 they can run a much looser converter/combination of parts that lets the engine stay above their target rpm range on shifts The TH400 can be manually/pneumatically shifted at rpm points/speeds even if the transmission can't "see" the rpm The 6r80 being a clutch on clutch automatic and computer controlled cannot do that

[@Bill-flatplanefool]

@@chipcurrey653 they mentioned the 6r80 specifically in the video. I’m running a manual transmission on my drag build so I don’t care that much but yes I’m aware of how a lockup th400 works

[@njseashorechas2698]

[@GrizzlyHunt26]

How do you properly use a Torque wrench ?

[@johnchartrand5910]

Billet crank and block should easily make 3500hp plus without worry looking at how this came apart

[@timgrant6510]

He’s making 3000 now and just went billet crank it was flexing

[@chrisminer1633]

What if the valve guide in that cylinder are sizing up during higher rpm and forcing the cam shaft upwards running it out of clearance mechanically suspect since it's rear cylinder exhaust right ?

[@VGHCX]

Are the cam journal caps billet or powdered metal?

[@Sir.VicsMasher]

Have you guys thought about going to an aftermarket casting from Bear Motors? About a month ago AED Tuning did a detailed block comparison between Coyote, Predator and Bear.

[@Nathan0A]

My imagination element analysis concludes that those cam caps look like they would break exactly where they broke. Are there aftermarket cam caps with a bit more cross-section available for these heads?

[@chrisminer1633]

Could you use piston dome design to force load directionally down the bore ?

[@Theferg1]

[@chrisminer1633]

Could bore to crank angle address the piston skirt abrasion on cylinders ?

[@eddiesellers8522]

Going back to the piston skirt. Does that any effect on HP or temp difference in the engine? Or is that normal wear on engines built for this HP?

[@utahcountypicazospage5412]

So what is real street doing for Brett do they sponsor him ? Sounds like 10r80 gear shifts are easier on the engine since it stays tight between shifts

Why no bearings/ bearing material for those cams to ride on or in.

[@oldschoolmobile]

Would be so cool if RS or Steve Morris would develop a 6L version of this platform with room to grow in a billet block. Very impressive that these OEM factory parts held up as well as they did @ 6.5 times factory power output. OEM block, crank, heads, cam caps, timing system. GM are you watching?

[@Airman..]

GM already steeped up the game with the c8 zo6, 4wd twin turbo zr1 is slowly cooking

[@cantbsdave]

@@Airman.. during development GM first used fords 5.2 ltr program to learn from then they went to Ferrari and finished their new design after inspecting both. What GM did is nothing new- they just too the development other companies spent $$$$ on and upgraded. Ferrari and Ford both have new upgraded platforms coming out. Everyone is stepping up the game- like Ford did initially, GM is having trouble with the new engine. A handful have self destructed within 50-75 miles off the showroom floor

Whats the full cost to have you guys build that coyote?

[@JimSampson-y6v]

My background is high performance airplane engines. Can't see much holding that top plate down on manifold ! A few bolts is all I see. With the 'cycling' pressure inside your asking for trouble. Stretched bolts...expanding / contracting aluminum. It'll weaken over time..... that top plate will blow off before burst panel.

Either that guy in the middle is tiny or that engine is massive

It’s a decent size engine the heads are huge

[@camyota]

Each head is nearly as big as a bare ls block. They're huge.

[@Thatstocksonoma]
