Does the All Aluminum Predator Thermostat Housing Fit a Coyote Engine?

[John S]

A current posting on converting Coyote cooling system joints to AN connections took me down the rabbit hole of other possible "upgrades" but it doesn't seem like there are any serious issues with the latest Coyote cooling systems. (including the #8 cylinder head?) If and when I need to change my water pump, I'll probably swap to a Ford Performance replacement, common to Coyote and Predator applications, but I also noticed the Predator thermostat housing/system is completely aluminum and incorporates dual thermostats instead of the single thermostat composite construction of the Coyote system. Has anyone verified if this Predator "upgrade" can adapt to a Coyote or does the Coyote throttle body get in the way?

Not compatible.

Application list I am looking at shows GT500 and 5.2 Raptor F150.

You can make one with one of these.

The Predator piece seems to take up a lot of real estate and probably adds unnecessary weight.

I did the UPR remote housing and made my own fittings so I could get my radiator hose away from my wastegate.
