5.0L Coyote V8 only - Gen 3 (2018 and newer) aluminum block; will NOT fit 4.6L/5.4L modular or EcoBoost engines
This 12.0:1 Aluminator short block is a Gen 3 5.0L Coyote (302 cubic inch) V8 short block for Coyote builds, and it accepts Gen 1, Gen 2, Gen 3 and GT350 cylinder heads.
Just like the fully built up engines, Aluminator Short Blocks are hand assembled and use Manley® connecting rods with ARP® rod bolts and Mahle® forged pistons. Two versions are available – 9.5:1 and 12.0:1 compression ratio.
These Aluminator Short Blocks serve as a strong foundation for the enthusiast that wants to spec and finish a Coyote build to his or her particular application and needs.
Ford Performance Engineers have taken care of the toughest part of building a new engine by designing a strong and durable Short Block that offers a wide range of power possibilities. And every Ford Performance Aluminator Short Block is precision internal balanced and hand assembled in the U.S. with performance clearances.
Ford Performance offers a number of components to finish the build.
