[QUOTE="Ry_Trapp0, post: 9791958, member: 27761"] the V-angle, bore spacing, and deck height all had to stay the same, because the execs wanted to save money by producing this engine on the same line as all other modular engines(4.6/5.4/6.8). by keeping all of these dimensions the same, the block can be machined by the same machines that ford is already using, they don't need to spend cash on new machinery. technically, this also makes the coyote a modular motor, since the "modular" name refers to the fact that multiple engines can be produced on the same line. besides these dimensions though, the block is 100% clean sheet. the oiling system and the cooling system are completely different from the 1st gen of mod motors. technically, i guess the coyote is a 4.6l-clean sheet hybrid of sorts, lol.
