Ford has never been shy about building big, powerful V8s, and its latest lineup proves it once again. The Godzilla 7.3-liter V8 started as a Super Duty workhorse before finding its way into crate engine form. Then came the Megazilla, packing 615 horsepower and 640 lb-ft of torque straight out of the box. Now, there’s a new monster in town—Megazilla 2.0. That’s not all. Ford Performance is taking things up a notch with supercharged versions of the 5.0-liter Coyote and 7.3-liter Megazilla V8s, both boosted by a 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger. For those who prefer their power unforced, naturally aspirated versions will continue under the Megazilla 2.0 name. Ford likes to say, “No boring engines.” Looking at this lineup, that’s not just a slogan—it’s a fact.

Official numbers aren’t out yet, but with forged pistons, a steel crank, upgraded valve springs, and ported cylinder heads, this thing is ready for serious competition. And that’s exactly where it belongs. The Megazilla 2.0 is for racing only, whether that’s desert trucks or drag strip monsters. It won’t see the streets, but for those who want to drop it into a race build, Ford is making it easier with a complete control pack harness. Expect it to hit Ford Performance catalogs and dealers in late 2025. Alongside the Megazilla, Ford introduced a supercharged 5.0-liter Coyote V8. This one’s built for street use, packing a 3.0L Whipple supercharger and a reprogrammed power module. It produces over 800 horsepower and 615 lb-ft of torque, with a two-year, 24,000-mile warranty to back it up.

The naturally aspirated Coyote crate engine starts at $11,500, while the 612-hp Megazilla goes for $22,995. Slapping a supercharger on both could add at least $10,000. Ford already sells its standalone supercharger kit for $9,995, and the supercharged 5.2-liter Raptor R crate engine (760 hp) costs $29,500. For those looking to boost an existing 2024+ Mustang, Ford’s supercharger kit is already available. It adds GT500 fuel injectors, a new throttle body, and an intercooler, pushing the Mustang GT and Dark Horse to 810 horsepower—a little less if you don’t have active exhaust. Source: Ford
