5.2 Crank in a 5.0?

[Corbic]

Google turns up nothing and it feels like it's been eons.

Does anyone know if Ford will be selling the 5.2 Crank and if said crank will fit in a 5.0 block.


Yes, Flat-Plane Budget Coyote.

Yes, Flat-Plane Budget Coyote.

You can't be serious.

No, the harmonics with a flat plane crank have to be carefully managed.

I surely hope not.
Happy Hour must have been early today.

The difference between the two engines is so drastic. That's like asking if you can put a fox 302 crank in a new coyote. Your ECU would probably self destruct like a nuclear bomb on start up, followed by your entire engine about .005 sec afterwards.

We used to put flat cranks in Chevy small blocks all the time.

But, I can not speak about the suitability of your swap.

It would need a 180 Deg. Cam set.

The headers were custom built for a 180 Deg firing order. (outside two ports on one bank
were paired to the inside two ports on the other bank. to work well as it will also need a different firing order.

As well as a stand alone ECU like the one from PRO-M. or Auto sports labs.

We just used an internal balanced dampner and flywheel. (all balanced together)

They are peaky and would require just the right rear gear to work well.

But it would sound like a wildcat in a burlap bag.

So if you COULD use the crank, then you need cams, stand alone ECM (more adjustability)

Ford already said the flat plane crank will be exclusive to GT350 owners so no

You can build the 5.2 with GT350 heads and cams but you can use the Boss 302 crank

It's not as different as U might think......

Budget FPC V8, I don't think that combination of words really goes together.

Unfortunately that crowdfunding effort is dead in the water.
