Coyote Engine Swap
Hoist the pinned bonnet and you’ll find 5.0 liters of smooth Coyote V8. Thanks to a VMP Performance supercharger, spins an impressive 713 rear-wheel horsepower into 590 lb./ft. of stoplight-slaying torque! Moreover, behind that potent engine, a tough hydraulic clutch kicks a Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed. And, this spins a tough Currie 9-inch.
Triangulated Rod and Customs Motorsports 4-bar supports that axle. As a result, it’s finished with a stiff sway bar and QA-1 coil-over-shocks. Moreover, that clip pushes an upgraded Rod and Customs Motorsports front half. Which, wraps a second beefy sway bar around tubular control arms and two more QA-1 coil-overs. Turns come courtesy of power rack-and-pinion steering.
Stops are provided by trusty Wilwood calipers, which grip a quartet of drilled and slotted rotors. Long-tube headers funnel spent gases through large-diameter pipes and rowdy Borla mufflers. In addition, at the corners, chrome US Mags wheels carry 245/45ZR17 front and 275/40ZR18 rear BF Goodrich g-Force Sports.
