2012 Mustang Boss 302 Crate Motor M-6007-M50B

Ford Racing has announced the availability of the Boss 302 crate engine, part #M-6007-M50B, allowing individuals to install the 444 horsepower 5.0L V8 into their own project cars. The engine features many upgrades over the standard 5.0L V8 including CNC-machined cylinder heads, upgraded air intake manifold, forged aluminum pistons, stronger connecting rods and more. Custom wiring and calibration is required, as the vehicle harness and power control module is not included.

The downside is pricing. Ford Racing lists the Boss 302 crate engine at $11,999.00, while the standard 5.0L Coyote V8 crate engine is $6,999.00. Is the Boss 302 engine worth the extra $5,000? That’s a tough call.

Boss 302 5.0L V8 Crate Engine Features:

    11.0:1 compression ratio
    Lightweight aluminum cylinder block features cross-bolted main bearing caps and thick main bearing bulkheads for bottom-end strength
    Features large sump 8.5 qt oil pan with revised oil pan baffling for improved oil control under hard cornering
    Revised composite intake system with shorter runners, inspired by Ford Racing’s Daytona Prototype engine program
    80 mm single bore “drive by wire” throttlebody
    High-strength aluminum-alloy cylinder heads with fully CNC-machined ports and chambers for exceptional high-rpm airflow without sacrificing low-speed torque
    Sodium-filled exhaust valves for improved heat dissipation
    Forged aluminum pistons and upgraded sinter-forged connecting rods for improved strength
    Includes manual transmission engine harness and flywheel
    Vehicle harness and PCM not included
    Boss 302 crate engine shown with optional Ford blue coil pack covers FRPP part # : M-6P067-M50B and NVH insulator pads, Ford dealer part # :CR3Z-6N041-A. sold separately.
    Engine mount bosses and bellhousing mount pattern common to 4.6L modular engines.
    Engine weight: 444 lbs
