Voodoo Crate Engine

[V8 Voodoo]

I see this is a topic in the general S550 forum, but it was mainly discussing the practicality of swapping a Voodoo engine into a GT. I am wondering if anyone has heard anything about Ford Performance offering the Voodoo in a crate engine like they did with the Trinity engine. I have a very strong desire to put one in a Factory Five Racing Daytona Coupe.

I would assume that Ford would offer this engine similar to what Chevy did with the LS7. This is going to a very popular motor. It might be some time before it becomes available as they still have to deliver all of us our GT350s first!

That's true! Take care of you very patient people first. You/the public have waited long enough for these. I can't wait to see one in person!

I hope not :-)

Enjoy, those cars do 0-60 in 3.5 seconds with just 300Hp 302 windsor. I sold my 11' and almost bought their 32' roadster kit with the cash.

Yeah they are extremely light. And it is a car that you don't see on the road everyday. If someone offered me a GT350R with Electronics or a FFR Daytona (especially with a Voodoo engine), I don't know if I would be able to choose.

I'd bet a lot of money you won't ever see it from Ford. Too many interfacing/attaching components that need to be designed to handle the vibration from this engine (else will literally break off).

FYI - I inquired about a longblock "warranty" assembly a while back. If you don't remember, when the Coyote first came out, there were parts for sale that were technically "meant" for warranty but they were super cheap - Longblock coyote was..I think $6100 at the time.

Anyway, the Voodoo is $18k for a longblock.

The Z06 motor is now available for just under $16,000.

Does that include the itty-bitty 1.7l blower and intercooler or is that just the longblock?

These motors will soon appear in the various Ford performance catalogues same as the GT 500 motor. No big deal here. Nothing rare or magical about this stuff. Understand that Ford Motor Company has the resources and ability to produce more GT 350s and Voodoo motors than the public could ever consume.

In hoping and assuming they will offer it as a crate motor I'm holding out replacing my '66 Mustang's original 289 engine for now. The plan was to go with a 331 stroker or similar as the Coyote swap just didn't quite do it for me - but since realizing the possibility I've been overwhelmingly excited about the idea of both cars sharing an engine.

Is there a Mustangs Anonymous support group? I think I need help, just not sure I want it! :ford::headbonk:

On a CarCast podcast from SEMA, one of the FP guys said the Voodoo heads and the complete engine would be available - along with select other GT 350 parts.
