Ford Racing 5.2L Coyote Aluminator XS Short Block

Ford Racing is known for building high-performance components for Ford vehicles, often drawing from their racing heritage. This 5.2L Coyote Aluminator XS Short Block is a prime example, hand-assembled by the same technicians who build the Mustang Cobra Jet drag racing engines. It's designed to be a robust foundation for serious engine builds, offering a significant step up from a stock component.

This short block uses premium aftermarket parts to ensure it can handle demanding use. You'll find Manley connecting rods paired with ARP rod bolts, and Mahle forged pistons. It also includes billet oil pump gears for improved oil delivery, a critical factor for engine longevity. The 5.2L cross-plane crankshaft is forged steel, and when combined with 5.2L cylinder heads, it results in a 12:1 compression ratio. This setup is an excellent basis for custom Coyote-based engine builds, offering 317 cubic inches of displacement.

This Aluminator XS Short Block is derived from the M-6007-A52XS engine and is built with durability in mind. It's important to note that this part is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. If you're looking to build a powerful Coyote engine, this short block provides a solid, race-proven starting point.
