What kind of heads are these? - General

Hey guys, Today by boss told me that he had some old car parts in the back of the warehouse that I could take. I there are a couple of v8 blocks that I haven't picked up yet but I did take 3 of these cylinder heads that were there. Not 100% sure what these are and was hoping that someone could give some insight.

Well, it's a 4 cylinder I would assume. It looks like Dual overhead cam so it's nothing too old. Also each cylinder appears to have 4 valves, so it's a 16 valve. It could be off a V8 but that's an awfully wide v8 head. I'm banking on a Japanese 4 cylinder or way new V8. It reminds me of like a Toyota 2uz.

But, if it was a V8 then all of those heads are from the same side, so its gotta be a 4 cyl then

I was thinking V8 because it says L on the back side of them. Though i'm not sure if that's what it means. Also the blocks that were there were v8's.

You'd think so, but look up a B18 Honda Head, they look similar.

The v8 blocks he has have nothing to do with these if they are Honda 4cyl heads.

Can you use a QR code scanner on the QR code (box thing) in the last pic?

Really curious what the numbers next to it mean, tried googling and nothing is coming up. The other two heads are blank where that info is.

The top looks similar, but that doesn't mean all 4 cylinders don't look like this as well. Sorry I'm not of much help. It's too bad you don't have the block instead. Blocks are easier to identify.

Sure looks Coyote to me; [img]http://www.speednik.com/files/2012/04/DSC_1251.jpg[/img] Intake holes are the same shape. [quote]5.0 L Coyote[edit] The 5.0 L (4951 cc, 302 cid)[10] "Coyote" V8 is the latest evolution of the Modular engine.[11] Ford engineers needed to design a V8, specifically for the Mustang GT, that would compete with the GM 6.2L LS3 used in the new Chevrolet Camaro, and the new Chrysler 6.4L Hemi ESF in the Charger and Challenger. This engine had to remain close to the same physical size of the outgoing 4.6, and share other specifications with it such as bore spacing, deck height, bell housing bolt pattern, etc. in order for the engine to utilize existing Modular production line tooling. The result was the 5.0 Coyote, which produced roughly the same amount of power as its competitors, but with a much smaller displacement. To strengthen the block enough to handle increased output, webbing was extensively used as reinforcement in the casting, rather than increasing the thickness of the walls. The intake plenum was also situated low between the two cylinder banks to meet the height constraint, thus the alternator traditionally placed low and center was moved to the side of the engine. It shares the 4.6 L's 100 mm (3.937 in) bore spacing and 227 mm (8.937 in) deck height,[12] while bore diameter and stroke have increased to 92.2mm (3.629 in) and 92.7mm (3.649 in), respectively. The engine also retains the 4.6 L's 150.7 mm (5.933 in) connecting rod length, which produces a 1.62:1 rod to stroke ratio.[13] The firing order has been changed from that shared by all previous Modular V8s (1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8) to that of the Ford Flathead V8 (1-5-4-8-6-3-7-2).[13] Compression ratio is 11.0:1, and despite having indirect fuel injection (as opposed to direct injection) the engine can still be run on 87 octane gasoline. The Coyote features all new 4V DOHC cylinder heads that have shifted the camshafts outboard, which allowed for a compact roller finger follower setup with remote hydraulic valve lash adjusters and improved (raised) intake port geometry. The result is an intake port that outflows the Ford GT intake port by 4 percent and the Yates D3 (NASCAR) intake port up to 0.472" (12 mm) lift, which is the maximum lift of the Coyote's intake cams. Engine redline is 7000 rpm.[13] The Coyote is Ford's first implementation of its cam-torque-actuated (CTA) Twin Independent Variable Cam Timing (Ti-VCT) in a V8 engine, which allows the power-train control module (PCM) to advance and retard intake and exhaust cam timing independently of each other, providing improved power, fuel economy and reduced emissions. The engine is assembled in Ford's Essex Engine Plant in Windsor, Ontario, using existing Modular tooling.[14] Boss 302 (Road Runner) Variant[edit] A higher performance variant of the Coyote, dubbed Road Runner internally by Ford, is produced under the Boss 302 moniker used for the resurrected Boss 302 Mustang for the 2012 model year.[15] The Boss 302 receives CNC ported heads cast in 356 aluminum providing additional airflow and strength, and a higher lift exhaust camshaft profile is used. Valvetrain components were lightened as much as possible, including the use of sodium filled exhaust valves, while strengthened powdered metal rods and forged aluminum pistons were added. Piston-cooling jets were also deleted, which are standard in the 5.0 model.[16] Exterior changes include a high-mount intake plenum (as opposed to the standard engine's low-mounted one) with shorter runners to improve high-rpm power. Power is increased from 412 hp (307 kW) to 444 hp (331 kW), and torque drops from 390 lb·ft (530 N·m) to 380 lb·ft (520 N·m) due to the upgrades. The Boss's redline is increased to 7500 rpm, but has been verified stable up to 8400.[17] F-150 Variant[edit] A torque-biased variant of the Coyote is produced as an alternative to the EcoBoost V6 in the new F-150 pickup truck. The F150 5.0L receives a lower compression ratio (10.5:1), intake camshafts with less duration, cast iron exhaust manifolds, and revised cylinder heads and intake manifold (color change only, no difference in size or shape) intended to promote low-end and mid-range power and torque. The engine retains the Coyote's forged steel crank and piston-cooling jets but benefits from the addition of an external engine oil cooler similar to the Boss 302's. The changes result in the engine's peak horsepower dropping to 360 hp (268 kW; 365 PS) while torque remains the same as the Boss 302 at 380 lb·ft (520 N·m).[18] Applications[edit] For the Australian Ford Falcon-based FPV GT range, the engine has been equipped with a Harrop/Eaton supercharger.[19][20] The Coyote made Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 2011.[21] The Coyote is available as a crate motor from Ford Racing Performance Parts (FRPP) complete with alternator, manifold, and wiring harness in standard 412 bhp (307 kW; 418 PS) configuration. The Boss 302 is also available from FRPP for a premium over the standard 5.0L. The engine is gradually replacing the 4.6L and 5.4L Modular V8 units in all Ford vehicles. This is the first time that Ford has used the "5.0" designation since the Windsor 5.0 was discontinued and replaced by the 4.6L Modular unit in 1996 (Mustang). Vehicles equipped with the 32-valve DOHC Ti-VCT 5.0 L include the following: 2011-2012 Ford Mustang GT, 412 hp (307 kW) at 6500 rpm, 390 lb·ft (529 N·m) at 4250 rpm 2011–2014 Ford F-150, 360 hp (268 kW) at 5500 rpm, 380 lb·ft (515 N·m) at 4250 rpm [22] 2011 Ford Falcon GT,[23][24] Supercharged, 335 kW (449 hp) at 5750 rpm, 570 N·m (420 lb·ft) at 2200-5500 rpm[19] 2012–2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302, 444 hp (331 kW) at 7500 rpm, 380 lb·ft (515 N·m) at 4500 rpm [16][25] 2013–2014 Ford Mustang GT, 420 hp (313 kW) at 6500 rpm, 390 lb·ft (529 N·m) at 4250 rpm [26] 2014 FPV Ford Falcon GT-F, Supercharged, 351 kW (471 hp) at 5750 rpm [404 kW (542 hp) with overboost[27]], 570 N·m (420 lb·ft) at 2200-5500 rpm[28] 2014-present Ford Falcon XR8, Supercharged, 335 kW (449 hp) at 5750 rpm [375 kW (503 hp) with overboost[29]], 570 N·m (420 lb·ft) at 2200-5500 rpm[30] 2015–present Ford Mustang GT, 435 hp (324 kW) at 6500 rpm, 400 lb·ft (542 N·m) at 4250 rpm [31] 2015–present Ford F-150, 385 hp (287 kW) at 5750 rpm, 387 lb·ft (525 N·m) at 3850 rpm [32] [/quote]

Yep, that's the Ford Coyote 5.0 4 valve heads.

You lucky bastard

Sorry for the delay. I have since confirmed with a ford mechanic what these are. Three, left hand coyote heads, two are the Boss 302 variant, one is stock. The two Boss heads are prototypes though, very early, the stock one is a production head. Mystery solved.

Why were they just lying around in the back of a warehouse :v:

[QUOTE=Squarebob;46843962]Why were they just lying around in the back of a warehouse :v:[/QUOTE] Never got sold, put into long term storage and forgotten,someone didnt pay the rent,misshipped and no one noticed. I got a case of mini donuts the last way it was supposed to be shipped to the US but ended up in canada and due to strict regulations on labeling wasnt allowed to be sold so they were given away to employees and their families.

My Boss does A LOT of ventures with people, so we get samples in all the time of random stuff. My guess is that these were samples to sell engine parts for a venture that never took off.

You going to barter off the duplicates and try to get a full motor out of it?

[QUOTE=JesseR92;46851004]You going to barter off the duplicates and try to get a full motor out of it?[/QUOTE] Yeah that's my plan, I want to sell the stock head and one of the boss, one of the blocks and use the residual to buy the remaining parts to complete one engine.
