The engine is designed for a flawless fit with the electronic systems of the 2015-2017 Mustang GT, though it does necessitate custom tuning to function correctly. It features a robust 5.2L engine with 317 cubic inches of volume and a compression ratio of 12:1. Durability and efficiency are enhanced by its premium Mahle® pistons, which are hard anodized and coated to minimize friction. Additionally, the engine's reliability is secured through Manley® H-beam connecting rods with ARP2000 bolts, tailored for high-performance applications. Each component contributes to making the integration smooth while elevating the vehicle's overall performance.
Ford Performance has taken the technology and hardware developed for the Shelby GT350 Mustang and has created the ultimate Naturally Aspirated, 5.2L cross-plane crankshaft crate engine. With a rating of 580 horsepower, the new Aluminator 5.2 XS is the most powerful naturally aspirated modular crate engine ever built by Ford Performance. This is the worthy successor of our previous rendition-the "A50XS". Every Aluminator is hand assembled by the same technicians that build the Mustang Cobra Jet drag racing engines. Premium aftermarket components are used to ensure durability like unique Manley connecting rods with ARP rod bolts and Mahle(R) forged pistons. Unique components developed specifically for the Cobra Jet racing program are used including Cobra Jet short runner-high RPM intake manifold, 1517 CFM dual 65mm CJ Throttle Body, and Competition High RPM pulse ring. Ford Performance Engineers developed a balanced combination of high end, 580 horsepower and strong mid-range torque with the Cobra Jet intake manifold, unique camshafts and fully CNC ported GT350 cylinder heads. ** Incl.
