probowler Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Quote 2021 Ford Bronco V8 Swap Incoming, Hennessey VelociRaptor Promises 750 HP If there’s something that Bronco reservation holders don’t like about the mid-size SUV, the lack of a V8 option would be very high on their list. Ford doesn’t plan to offer eight cylinders anytime soon, and this brings us to Hennessey Performance Engineering and a supercharged Coyote crate engine that cranks out 750 horsepower. The VelociRaptor V8 Bronco will be mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, and this combo is good enough for 60 mph (97 kph) in 4.5 seconds. Other upgrades include a scooped hood, chunky mud-terrain tires wrapped around larger wheels, a lift kit, a stainless-steel exhaust, “and more.” By that, the Texas-based tuner refers to a racing livery like the one in the rendering before your eyes. A custom leather interior is worthy of mentioning as well, along with a custom front grille. Full Story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that the Hennessey article also mentions the 70+ F-150 Raptor EB to V8 swaps they've done,,,, HRG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's actually a youtuber who lives in her full-size Bronco. She makes videos of her travels and adventures. So it's definitely doable!

Thecolemans05 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I've heard through the grapevine that the Warthog could be seeing 8 cylinders of yote. Now if this is real who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianstrange Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Oh boy, because 300HP with low gearing isn't good enough. I'm sure someone will have a use for it. Really, I'm sure......I think, but hmmm, I don't know~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
