2016 Coyote engine oil cooler removal??
I'm new to the forum, so please bear with me. Just got to the point in my '33 Hot rod build where I'm finding out the problems with the newer series Coyote crate engine. I understand FFR is working on an update to the "Coyote Install" instructions. In the mean time, I need help with some issues relating to the fit of the engine. 1) Any advice in removing the factory oil cooler under the filter. Obviously it has to go. 2) Any new info on the CMCV's (charge motion control valves) that are on the 2015-2016 engines and will hit the firewall. My initial measurements reveal I need about 3/4" to 1" more clearance to fit the engine in. Help??

To remove the oil cooler you need a large hex head fitting to fit up in the center and unscrewvit. The entire unit will come off then. Can't remember the size. A bolt head is used by some people and works good.
Can't help you with the other. I have MK4 and had no issues with the firewall.

Thanks, that solves at least one little problem.

I replaced my intake manifold and thottle body with a cobra jet manifold.

You can use the stock manifold if remove the CMCV vacuum motors and lock the runners. Here is at least one source for the parts required. http://www.modularmotorsportsracing....roducts_id=896. A custom tune will be required.

Anyone know of an oil filter relocation kit for this motor besides the Ford one? That one is very pricey.
