Detailed 2500+HP Coyote V8 Engine Teardown - What We Found After Going 200+MPH Back To Back! 

LS guy here.. gotta appreciate the engineering went into designing this platform

Coyotes are becoming a force to reckon with and i believe they will end up being one of the greatest engine platforms especially in the Ford racing world... Coyote FTW!

I can’t believe that this level of coyote didn’t have billet cam caps.

I love my coyote. But holy cow. 2500 hp. That's got to be fun to drive

This just shows if you maintain your engine through proper maintenance & checking data between runs you will succeed & have fewer issues

Dude I just want to say thank y’all for doing these coyote videos! I started at Ford right when the coyote started and I recommended that engine to every one

Ain't nothing like Ford power 💪🏿💪🏿, keep up the excellent work guys👍🏿

That's some clean , precise and honest tear down ... Respect ..!

MMR has taken a billet block 351in³ coyote with ported oem heads to a 5.67 @ 265mph. This is the next step for the snot rocket

Crazy to see this after watching cleetus put a massive smx engine in mullet and this little coyote doing exactly what hes doing at the same level, or almost better

25-2900hp with stock cams bearing caps, cams, crank, block, heads---and stock head bolts! Mind blown. 🤯🤯

Nice to be able to geek out at this level without spending my own money..! Great video men

Love it! Crazy with what FFRE, Jay, and Brett were able to do with an engine that is found in your everyday Mustang. Can't wait to see the next phase, looks like you guys are going to turn it up.

Nice to see the appreciation for the Coyote I'm amazed by the Gen 1 in my 12 F150.

I love my coyote. Plenty of power for the street. Reliable and fun to drive

I'm 64 years old my first 3 trucks were Fords. My first car at 16, in 76' was a 69' Chevelle SS w/ an original L-88 427 and a Muncie R-22... I worked at the local speed shop from 15 to almost 18... working on my Bosses' " COLE BLACK " Flatbottom V- drive who set the World Record in Injected BBC that held for years and years! So... needless to say, I was cemented as a Chevy guy till 2022... WHEN out of my vision appears this Coyote F- 150 truck... and Iam back to being a turncoat...lol! You three in this video, Manuel, Randy Seals, ONDGAS, and HOUSTON SYREET MONSTERS... have me ECSTATICALLY building these things like crazy!!! I cannot thank you enough for the amount of SOLID INFO, YOU GENTS HAVE SHARED... definitely an IMMEASURABLE WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE, that have allowed me my last " hurrah as it will! My thanks again and admiration for what you are doing in ALL OF OUR LIVES! Respectfully, Seth

Coyotes are so fucking badass!!! I’ve been a huge fan since the gen 1. Huge game changer and I’m happy to see people finally realizing how great these engines are. Great video guys!

Started with Ford as a lucky 15 ( 75') yr. old w/ a Courier... to learn to drive, lol. 76' bought my first real driver 69' Chevelle SS with a donor tri power 427 from around the same year Vette... M-22, Moroso brute strength posi... yada, yada, boo... into full rebuild and the first narrowed 12 bolt in S.E. Texas... SO... for the last 25 years I've been building one off exclusive builds 32' to 35' ford trucks and coupes. ( have built self made sizes 120% to 172% scales... for a customer the only 34' coupe out of Beryllium copper sheets/304ss ... lol ) Been looking all these years for a Ford engine that tripped my trigger... your video has sunk a hook that requires a round of due diligence... I'm stoked, runnin' around the house... even got such an inebriated rush going... I slapped the wife on her larger cheeks... lol... with no smiles... lol. Appreciate the honesty you have shared... KUDO'S to you gents involved... TRULY CAPTIVATING AND HOPEFULLY LIFE ALTERING! Respectfully, Seth

Great Episode... man im really impressed . This coming from someone pushing 900whp Daily out of gen 3 coyote 6 speed (stock Engine still) Impressed on how well these block are holding up with stock parts.

WOW ... that many hours under duress and that was the only issue ?? Now that's one well built engine.

I also run a plasma man manifold and never had any issues up to 50 psi. You will definitely need billet cam caps and ARP bolts at 65 psi. 👍

Great team of guys right there! Lots of brains!!

I'm glad someone knows to say it moves the air well rather than it dissipates heat real good

Not a Ford guy but damn..Ford built a hell of an engine ..wow..

Both Plazmaman & Shauns Custom Alloy are amazing intakes produced in Australia

I appreciate you guys letting us see part of your program. You guys know your stuff!

At the end of the video Jays audio is echoed. Not complaining just wanted to let you know. Great video

Well done guys, very impressive

mod motors man. total game changer for ford. chevy guy here. but was so impressed with what a bolt on can do

Fantastic work guys, just getting into the Coyote engine and loving everything you guys do. Keep pushing 👍👍

Less competitive racer here: ‘21 Mach 1, Twin 62s, 950whp, 6spd Manual What would your recommendations be to reduce stress on the motor. Your comment regarding how hard the 6r80 could be got me thinking. What can I do to the driveline, while remaining a stick to help it live longer? If that isnt the best place for longevity what is one thing youd otherwise recommend? So far it has been good fuel, ensuring its up to temp before any abuse, and frequent oil changes. This car is driven on the street with maybe monthly track outings but sometimes more.

Great video, thanks for making it.

Man, this was such an informative and cool video in so many freaking ways. Thanks guys! I’m running a sleeved coyote from Tim Eichhorn that gets it. Love the coyote platform.

Really interesting. To me the main thing that was right with these engines from the beginning (modular motors) was the stability of the bottom end. Cylinder length being a weakness at this level with the 8.937” deck height.

Yep, good insightful video on a great Coyote engine, well done.

I think the Coyote and Cyclone engines will become legendary.

I love these breakdown videos

It's so cool to see u guys collaborate on video like this. I'm not a domestic guy but I build alot of newer mustangs for a living and its amazing what that platform can do

Good to see 👀 people working so well on a project

I love this shit, the amount of in depth knowledge just casually discussed was very satisfying.

Wow. Great insight, guys. Thanks much for sharing. Learning a lot about the amazing platform. Gonna watch this several times. Thx again!

Nice clean organized shop! Rare these days.

Jay you the Man dood ..

Seriously awesome work. You guys should try line 2 line coating on the old pistons it really helped on a big ci small nitrous engine that had a lot of piston rock at the bottom. Much respect for what you guys have done.

I need one of these engines soon ❤

These videos are amazing. Would it be possible to add a subtitle with metric measurements for all of us none Americans? I understand it would be extra production cost and your main customers are in the USA. But the rest of the planet pretty much would be so grateful if you could. Especially when talking displacement and stroke and stuff.

“65 isn’t crazy” says crazy guy

Have you checked out line2line coatings on piston and others?

32:43 There's a weird skip, then some double audio. Didn't know if anyone had noticed.

Great content!!! 👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸

really enjoy these videos!

Hey Jay was hoping to pick your brain my local junkyard has 3 engines and I wanted to see which you would go from. 1 LS2- 5k 2 L99-4,500k 3 Coyote- 7k Thanks for all the wisdom I’m trying to soak it all up!!

ECHO ECHO ECHO TEST 123!!!!😂

Excellent stuff. Probably want to look at a different design piston

It was so weird hearing him talk at the end!! 😂😂 what in the world was that editing 😂😂

How in hell can you hold THIS much power/boost with 4 headbolts per cylinder on a stock cast block/heads ? my mind is blown.

2500 factory block is freaking wild. There are aftermarket blocks that can't live there. To echo the group, what RPM range does this live at? Seems like doing it all up high is helping

Good Shit 🇺🇸💪🏼🐎

THANK'S GUY'S GREAT VIDEO AND CONTENT. GREAT INFORMATION FOR ME TO BUILD A STRONG GEN. 3 COYOTE 5.0 ENGINE, THAT WILL LAST AND HAVE THE POWER I WANT FOR MY 64' FALCON SPRINT (500 RWHP) AND (420 RWTQ) TO 8,000 RPM. SUPER COBRA JET MANIFOLD WITH TROTTLE BODY. IF I CAN GET A GEN.3 COYOTE 5.0 N.A. ENGINE BUILT WITH GREAT PART'S AND THE POWER I WANT, THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

impressed coyote's don't need to be fire ringed to run that kind of boost ?

I need to record one of mine too. Guys love to see how engines wear

4.6 gang approves

Great information thanks for sharing

Still driving my lowly 14 Mustang GT, runs like a top.

All the rocker arm retaining clips are missing, I blew 8 of mine off. I also broke the same cam cap. I believe the rocker arm retaining clips came off and went through cam.

7 months later hes going 4:00's! Way bad dude!

Would it be possible to come up with a timing belt conversion ? Also can you talk more about how the shift points in a 6r80 can hurt the engine?

Wish y'all would have zoomed in on those knock sensors for the LS street tuner crowd that think their tune and data logging makes them obsolete.

Have you guys thought about going to an aftermarket casting from Bear Motors? About a month ago AED Tuning did a detailed block comparison between Coyote, Predator and Bear.

Billet crank and block should easily make 3500hp plus without worry looking at how this came apart

Would be so cool if RS or Steve Morris would develop a 6L version of this platform with room to grow in a billet block. Very impressive that these OEM factory parts held up as well as they did @ 6.5 times factory power output. OEM block, crank, heads, cam caps, timing system. GM are you watching?

I love ls’s they are cheap, but it’s clear coyotes are gonna dominate drag racing as more aftermarket support becomes available. Can’t have a conversation about either engine without mentioning the other it seems like 😅

My imagination element analysis concludes that those cam caps look like they would break exactly where they broke. Are there aftermarket cam caps with a bit more cross-section available for these heads?

Great information well done

So what is real street doing for Brett do they sponsor him ? Sounds like 10r80 gear shifts are easier on the engine since it stays tight between shifts

Turn it up!!

If he was only making 1500hp would a power glide be a good choice or are you going with something else ?

Does ford give you guys support /$$$$ for R&D / & ect....Because this motor blows my mind....this to me is a game changer ....Im a chevy ovaul track motor guy...im impressed with everything you guys did...alot of skill and development and engineering

My background is high performance airplane engines. Can't see much holding that top plate down on manifold ! A few bolts is all I see. With the 'cycling' pressure inside your asking for trouble. Stretched bolts...expanding / contracting aluminum. It'll weaken over time..... that top plate will blow off before burst panel.

What if the valve guide in that cylinder are sizing up during higher rpm and forcing the cam shaft upwards running it out of clearance mechanically suspect since it's rear cylinder exhaust right ?

Teacher Jay in class.

Fascinating!

Could you use piston dome design to force load directionally down the bore ?

What type of oil pump are you guys running in that engine? Also what brand and weight of oil did you use for this engine? Thank you

Going back to the piston skirt. Does that any effect on HP or temp difference in the engine? Or is that normal wear on engines built for this HP?

Is there a bad year for the coyote platform? Or has it always been this reliable?

Either that guy in the middle is tiny or that engine is massive

Could bore to crank angle address the piston skirt abrasion on cylinders ?

Caps look cast so better put some billet caps. Or if not billet steel caps if possible.

I just saw a video about Ford HP new block with Propiatary Iron Black and it only weights 230 lb's more and can be bored and stroked to 5.6 liters

Paper Towels? Wiping the Engine with Paper Towels? What an AMATEUR! I'm gone.

100%!

Turn it up

Why no bearings/ bearing material for those cams to ride on or in.

Send me that old rotating assembly lol

He said where they came from. Ford was there with the cammer but until the coyote platform they revamped it. But ford waited to long. Now everyone else is on the ev kick and 4 and 6cyl development

Fascinating 🇯🇲

Wont be seeing these replace the Almighty king Hemi anytime soon in top fuel. 😊

Immensely Great dude

Amazing
