Detailed article on Coyote engine

how yall think the new manual trans will hold up?

Seems like a very interesting article, which may be read over the course of days... Pages and pages...

The new Getrag manual is not really all that new insofar as design characteristics. We'll see how it handles power, but from the little I've read, I actually expect it to be every bit as strong as the Tremec used in various other applications, though maybe not stronger(might be weaker) than the Viper version. It has benefits though, to help it survive, particularly in the ratios and the case design. I can't say much for the torque rating, but it seems the output of this engine already exceeds the rating and we're not hearing of breakage yet. The "skip shift" feature simply blows impo, but that's government involvement.

Very good information.
Thanks for posting the link!

I haven't seen this article posted up here, so sorry if it's already been posted. 5.0 Magazine apparently spoke with thge engineers that created this beauty & wrote a great article describing the new engine in detail. Sadly, it seems to suggest that supercharging may not be possible due to the weak rods. Happy reading!
