The fact that now when I type in "5.0" on youtube, craigslist or Ebay, I have to fish through so much 2011 Coyote crap it's unbelievable. I understand that it's cool to have the 5.0 back and all, but damn. I didn't realize it would make searching for my own breed of 5.0 such a hassle!

The easy search days are over for us. New 5.0 means more sifting.

I think I should just buy one of those Coyote Engines and jamb it in my SN. That would solve my searching problems.

I know all the parts are available now. I was just looking at the BBK website, and they have swap longtubes for it now. I just bought a brand new engine too.

I only wish my problem was that I got pushrod info every time I searched for something regarding my 2011

Using a search filter only helps if the person who posts the video or ad used 2011 in their title.

Another problem I have now is while out on cruise nights and someone asks about my car because of it's "5.0" on the back they automatically assume it's a Coyote 5.0 and not a pushrod 5.0.

Ford did create quite the conundrum with the release of this latest "5.0" powerplant...
