The Ford Performance crate engine catalog recently welcomed a dual-overhead-cam powerhouse priced at $29,500. Additionally, customers must purchase a Ford Performance control pack for an extra $2,650.
Compared to the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, priced at $31,725 plus a $1,350 destination charge, this engine appears pricey. However, it boasts unique characteristics akin to the series-production mill powering the F-150 Raptor R.
Replacing the Ford Performance M-6007-M52SC S550 Shelby GT500-spec crate engine, the M-6007-M52SCA offers 760 horsepower and 625 pound-feet of torque. Featuring an Eaton-supplied R2650 supercharger, it delivers exhilarating performance.
The package includes exhaust manifolds, forged aluminum pistons with Grafal anti-friction coating, a forged steel crankshaft, and other components. Manufactured at the Dearborn Engine plant, production received a $20 million investment.
With General Motors confirming a new generation of their small block, the Coyote and Predator engines remain relevant. The Coyote received updates for the 2024 Mustang, including a dual throttle body and intake configuration.
While the most powerful series-production Mustang, the Mustang GTD, isn’t produced by Ford, it showcases the potential of crate engines for off-highway or competition use only.
