Sounds exactly like what happens when you put the a mustang on the dyno.
I thought the rear wheels were setup to spin a certain ratio with the front. Nothing to do with torque and power tables.
when I dynoâd my GT350 I basically had every light on the dashboard. Also keep in mind, OP has...
If the ford authority report is accurate, weâre going to see a bespoke engine in this car.
525hp and 450tq are insane numbers for an NA mass produced engine.
I love NA power and will be following the MACH1 very closely, as I did the GT350
Whatâs interesting is ford likes to do âfirstsâ.
what is the first here? At 450tq, they would break the production engine record at 90ft/lbs per litre.
the 4.5L V8 Ferrari does 88.5/L.
Porscheâs RS engine is right there too. The coyote would take them both.
so maybe there is merit here.
Regarding the coyote with the 5.2 heads:
Not happening, at least in this current configuration. Ford performance does sell the 5.2 heads for use on the coyote, but itâs gen II only. In order to use the heads on a gen III engine, theyâll need to be completely redesigned for dual injection.
I...
Exactly. It can run on 87 with enough timing pulled and valve overlap.
All I said is with emissions equipment and pump gas, weâll see 40hp and 20tq less. Thatâs all.
You might be ahead with ported stock heads as youâll retain the direct injection. AXS5.2 is rated on race fuel with long tube headers. It wonât make those numbers with factory emissions systems and pump gas, probably down 40hp and 20tq.
Since you seem interested in NA BEMP, use the highest torque/L, highest HP/L, and highest CR (production gas) created in the last 10 years.
the 4.5L in the speciale.
I canât see a different HO version of the coyote with Shelby pieces, hereâs why.
The 5.2 heads are port injection only, therefore if ford wants the extra power theyâll have to redo a lot of the bottom end. The gen three coyote has specific DI pistons (I think).
Think of the gen 2 coyote with...
Fair.
Either way you look at it, Ford could have done something. Itâs just a matter of
Financials and timelines. Could they add the additional technology for $1300 their cost/unit? Perhaps.
Could they do it with their already stretched and late timeline? Nah lol.
Regarding fuel economy, it was well in Fordâs control to have the predator make much better fuel economy.
They dropped the ball though.
1) if the predator was actually based on the gen three coyote architecture as opposed to the now 6 year old gen two platform then;
2) we could have seen...
Thatâs everyoneâs hope, but isnât feasible.
The 5.2 predator actually has the gen2 coyote top end, which is port injection only.
If ford made an NA version of this engine they would have to make it dual injection like the gen three coyote, and to put it in the next generation car it would...
