There is a thread going on a company doing a V8 coyote swap a few weeks ago. My issue is you gain very little over the v6, like 40hp and 25 torque. Besides the cool factor and sound , not worth it.

I literally just saw a reel of a bronco startup with supposedly a 6.2 and thought it was funny because the description said 2.6 swap. No look at the engine though so likely fake

Whenever an old guy compliments the Bronco I do the "Hes gonna mention it needs a v8 in 3-2-..."countdown in my head. They never disappoint, and they always seem shocked when I say that means nothing to me.

I got a 2.3.
I anticipate saying it’s ‘half a v8, like you got half a ‘ and I won’t finish the sentence

Just like when young people say the Bronco needs a better stereo system and the older people say that doesn't mean anything to them. It's a generational thing.

I know it's not a race car, but there is a similar hp/torque (52/30) difference between the Braptor and the Wrangler with the v8, and v8 made the Braptor look like a sloth.
