The Texas Speed Forged 5.0L Coyote Gen 4 Resleeved Short Block with Hoops is a 12:1 compression short block assembled on a brand new Ford Gen 4 Coyote block for the 5.0L F-150. Texas Speed rates it for 1800 horsepower and mid-30 psi of boost, which makes it a foundation for a large turbo or supercharger build as well as a high-output naturally aspirated engine. Each short block is deburred, balanced and blueprinted in house at Texas Speed.
The block is fitted with Darton Coyote sleeves and a Texas Speed stainless steel hoop design for added cylinder strength at high boost. A Ford F-150 5.0L crankshaft with a 3.650" stroke is balanced and paired with Manley 4340 Pro Series I-beam connecting rods, 5.933", 7/16" ARP2000 rod bolts and Manley Platinum Series pistons. ARP main studs hold the mains and Texas Speed oil squirter block-offs are installed. The short block ships in a crate on a Coyote engine stand with Royal Purple break-in oil. A matching head gasket and ARP head stud kit and a VDE delete kit with PAC springs are offered as selections when ordering.
