The Coyote engine would turn a new Bronco inside out. Like putting a 427 rat motor in a '64 unibody Nova.

Done it. Drove it. Put the 327 back in the next weekend.

The 5.0 Coyote is a tall motor. Too tall to fit in a Bronco without significantly raising the hood line.
Besides, the 2.7 liter Ecoboost in the F-150 is quicker than the 5.0 liter in same. That motor is strong for it’s size.



But,but.but you have to pipe in exhaust sound to sound like a real engine.

The Coyote sits very low in the engine compartment.

But with those heads it sure is wide.



That is so weird, I plugged that hole on my '19 GT....dumb as dirt to pipe sound into a cab with operable windows.
