The 5.2 is good, but calling it the best Ford NA engine is a stretch.

It’s high RPM with over 100 HP per liter. What more do you need?

More torque at lower RPM. High RPM can mean faster wear.

The Voodoo has torque to match the Coyote. Plus, it’s factory-made and warranty-backed.

It’s good for what it is, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best Ford’s ever done.
@Frederick
Best factory Ford engine for a street car, end of story.

You seem pretty set on that, but I’d still love to hear why you think so in more detail.

Check out the GT350 vs. Gen 3 Coyote dynos online. You’ll see what I mean about torque.

Terminator engines were some of the best. Built like tanks.

No way… the Predator engine is where it’s at.

It’s decent but not a game-changer.

Try racing it against a Hellcat… Predators hold their ground.

I don’t buy that.

Hellcats struggle with traction. Coyotes give them a run for their money.
@Hartley
I’d actually love to see a comparison test to settle this debate.

Predator is lightyears ahead of the Terminator. Different league entirely.

The Terminator broke new ground back in its day… just like the Hellcat did.

Hellcats didn’t change much—they’re just powerful but limited to straight lines.

They redefined muscle cars, though…

Sure, if you like heavy cars that can only go straight.
