After they break about 20 different things they then have to replace for more big $$, I’m sure it will be sweet. Wish I had that kind of F you money

Ford Bronco Update: Supercharged V8 5.0 Coyote Engine Swap into Ford Bronco by No Traction Faction 1661990485764


If we didn’t have people willing to try new things we would have never had hot rods, muscle cars, NHRA or a lot of other motorsports. This is exactly what drove Jeep to finally develop the 392 Jeep, since the guys that wanted one couldn’t get one from the factory so they’ve been doing it for years on their own using hemi’s and LS motors. I would personally love a factory V8 that gets 17-19mpg just so I could pull up next to someone driving a ‘green’ vehicle, rev that throaty V8 then give them the single finger salute when they gave me that look of disgust…lol

Eh, should be fine.

V8 Coyote maxes out at around 550nm, maybe 570nm of torque. Transmission is rated for 600nm. People tend to forget the 2.7L V6 EcoBoost has a similar torque rating to the V8 Coyote when the turbos on the are spun up on the EcoBoost. (Hence why Ford is using these smaller V6 EcoBoost engines instead of V8 engines.)

Now if they stick a turbo or a supercharger on the Coyote… well then yeah, something to be concerned about.

Logically they would just swap in the F-150 transmission to take the guess work away on the programming side. But not sure if there is physically enough room to do that, so they may have to stick with the stock Bronco transmission.
it feels like more than turbo lag, I think ford restricted the tune in 1st and 2nd gear to protect the transmission.

Having a Gen 3 Coyote and a 2.7 F150, this isn't a wise choice. All the torque in the 5.0 is above 4500 RPM. Those engines like to be wound up. The torque in the 2.7 F150 starts to pull down low, which is where you want it. In addition, the Coyote is a massive, massive engine. Makes no sense at all. Max torque for Gen 3 Coyote = 420. Max torque for 2.7 Bronco = 415. I don't see any benefit aside from adding a bunch of weight, taking up a BUNCH of space, and having to rev your taint dry to get into the torque band.

Instead of 500 trim levels with a bunch of tech that no one over 30yrs old cares about, Ford should stop messing around and just given us 4 engine options ALL available with AT or MT transmissions + HOSS 3.0:

2.3 I4 Turbo
2.7 V6TT
Skip to 3.0 V6TT or replace 2.7 with 3.0
Coyote or Godzilla V8 NA
Coyote or Godzilla V8 SC or TT w/upgraded performance brakes

If Jeep can make it work with the 392 Rubicon...so can Ford. No excuses.

Maybe Ford will be managed by someone with some cahones again some day and not their EPA bias legal department. Which has been the downfall of most automakers these days.

If I were to try and tackle this I think I would try to find a donor F150 with a 5.0 already mated to a 10R80. Not sure how everything else will jive together though.
F150 is not how you spell Mustang. ;)

And if they just swapped it into a stick shift it would bolt right up and be fine, since the 7MT is an internal mod to the existing 6MT in the 'Stang.

Snapping axles instead of tie rods. :LOL:
You do realize the 2.7L V6 produces almost the same torque if not more as the V8. Won’t be a problem at all, especially in a Sasquatch.
