When someone on the street asks I say Coyote. When I'm at a parts counter getting maintenance stuff and they ask what engine I say five point oh.

What’s funny is when I had the 17 Shelby, I did not call it a GT350, I called the engine the Voodoo not 5.2, not a Voodoo. It was the Voodoo.

That probably confused the shit out of non car people. Lol. But then again, non car people probably aren’t the ones paying attention to the greatness that is the GT350.

I refer to it as "the turd".

























Just kidding. I call it the mustang GT track edition for non car people. Car people already know what it is. I just say it has the performance pack.

I only use the term "Coyote" with other Mustang guys. Most people have no idea about engine names. 5.0 is more universally understood.
The only time I ever used any kind of names growing up was to differentiate between engines, like the 351 Windsor vs 351 Cleveland, or 426 Wedge vs 426 Hemi.

I typically call it a 302 or 5.0L V8. I have a couple of coyote badges on the car that causes a lot of discussion from the uninformed "who don't know what they don't know". Those who know it's self explanatory.
