Some initial side-by-side differences between the Coyote and Voodoo engines.

I don't know, there doesn't seem to be much information here that most of you would probably find too interesting, but it's news nonetheless.

Thanks. I agree not much there, but at least it has some new speculation.

One thing I didn't see mentioned was the presence or lack of the charge motion control valves. Can anyone see if the Voodoo has those?

I think the valves on the regular Coyote were hidden on the rear of the intake manifold.

The coolant hose routing is probably just because it's not a vehicle that was built through any VP phases (not processed through the plant). Things are just routed to work.

I don't think the oil filler is in a different location - it just looks like it is.

The throttle body and intake tube look to be a larger diameter than the Coyote's. Due to the larger diameter, the intake tube bend radius may have needed to change to not impede air flow.

Sure looks like a pre-production photo of the Voodoo to me. Nobody noticed the mess of blue wiring? The finished version likely won't look like that.

I think that wiring is added for the temperature testing (not part of the car's wiring). It looks like it terminates in different locations with sensors taped to the body of the car. Possibly sensing temperature at different locations?

This.

Also think this is what the final engine will look like. They hung pictures of it so to me it says it is final.

They did this with the GT and EB engines too. Everyone said it's pre-production given the jellyfish reservoir but it turned out there were no changes in the production vehicle.

I wonder if they will try to organize some of the various lines/tubes running throughout the engine bay. Would be nice if they could get a bit of a cleaner layout rather than the spaghetti that is currently being shown. In the end I don't mind it too much as long as it is functional, but I do appreciate the aesthetics of a clean wiring job, and the same goes for the various hoses in the engine bay.
