Coyote Powered Cars- MPG

Ace23 · #1 (**permalink**) 12-21-2015, 10:42 AM

Just wondering if anyone has a Coyote or supercharged Coyote and pays attention do their gas mileage. I do not have a Coyote engine and have no plans for one anytime soon but I was just curious to the mileage they were capable of. I was going to guess they would do 25mpg cruising with a TKO600 but was unsure.

Mine got 25 easy on highway with a six speed trans, I had it in my SPF...

Thanks for the info and that is pretty awesome. Did you have that dark grey SPF that is on youtube? I believe that is one of the only SPF I have seen with the Coyote platform. I have chassis #1867 and I was told the Coyote will only go in certain chassis numbers and higher. Why did you get rid of it? I can't see having one without a blower but that is just my opinion.

Mine was all black 2510, their are many with that engine now, I got about 20 mpg city with it and I drove like Jeff Gordon...6 speed with 3.73 gears...

I sold it to buy a Kirkham, I loved it though best driving cobra around, I don't like driving cobras that are turbo or super I prefer NA...I don't know what chassis number they made the change if they ever did...

I can only imagine the coyote did drive incredible. I wouldn't want a turbo in one of these cars because I don't like the muffled exhaust but I sure would like to experience a coyote with a Whipple or TVS. As mentioned earlier a twinscrew on a Windsor would be insane as well.
