[QUOTE="cottondoc, post: 12651457, member: 124770"] Yeah, I figured it would cost some amount more to use coyote parts or do a coyote swap. I was just wondering how much more and if the increased cost would be offset by increased horsepower. I haven't done much research, but I just looked at ford racing. You can get a complete, low-compression, forged piston coyote 5.0 alluminator engine from Ford shipped to your house for $8,350. I may be wrong, but I would expect a built Boss 5.0 or sleeved, big bore aluminum 4.6 teksid block with a quality forged rotating assembly to be at least $5,000. And that is just for a short block. You would still have to use stock terminator heads that flow substantially less. I also know it would cost a lot to put a complete coyote in a terminator because it isn't a direct bolt in, but if you are doing a complete motor build, it might end up costing less per horsepower made. I guess what I was really hoping is that a set of coyote heads would bolt up to a Boss 5.0 or big bore teksid block. That would eliminate the problems and expense associated with a complete coyote swap. You could have the flow of coyote heads without the cost of a complete swap.
