Compatibility Notes

The Gen 1 and Gen 2 5.0L Coyote blocks are no longer available from Ford. RPG now uses the Gen 3 Coyote block, configured with an 11:1 compression ratio to match the factory Gen 1 and Gen 2 specifications.

The Gen 3 block is fully compatible with both Gen 1 and Gen 2 cylinder heads and timing components, but matching-generation head gaskets must be used with the corresponding cylinder heads.

  • Example: Gen 3 short block with Gen 1 heads requires Gen 1 head gaskets.

Head Fastener Note: You must use 12mm long head studs or OEM Gen 3 head bolts. Later Gen 1 or Gen 2 studs/bolts will not fit this block.


Why Choose RPG

RPG short blocks are engineered with meticulous attention to detail, using premium components and strict tolerance control. Each engine is precision-balanced, blueprinted, and assembled to exceed the performance demands of modern high-boost and high-RPM Coyote platforms. Whether your goal is maximum street reliability or track-ready power, RPG delivers proven performance.
