Subject: 5.0-liter V-8 Confirmed for Mustang. What About Ford F-150? December 18th 2009, 12:20 pm
As we first told you in January, Ford is planning big changes to its powertrain lineup in 2010 for the 2011 model year, focused on giving buyers more power and greater efficiency. One of those changes is the addition of a new 5.0-liter V-8, developed under the codename "Coyote."
While the 5.0-liter V-8 hasn't been confirmed for the F-150 yet, we can tell you it's officially going in the 2011 Ford Mustang with a 412 horsepower power rating, thanks to a post on Edmunds.com. That's very close to the approximately 400 horsepower we told you the engine would produce. It's also beats the 411 horsepower figure for the new large displacement 6.2-liter V-8 that's going in the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor.
