Ford Performance offers the 2024 F-150 Raptor R’s 5.2L Supercharged inter-cooled V8 engine as a crate engine you can buy to install in your build. This engine is quite spectacular. If you didn’t know, it’s the same Predator V8 engine found in the previous-generation Mustang’s GT500, albeit with some serious modifications to ensure that it’s able to hold up against the extreme punishments the F-150 Raptor R will likely face on more rugged terrain.

Customers can get their hands on the 2024 F-150 Raptor R engine, rated at 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque. This power boost is more than what the new Raptor R has, which only makes 720 horsepower following Ford managed to fine-tune the engine to get a higher power output. But this crate engine has the same power as the GT500 did, which is even more beneficial to customers. It’s a fantastic item to equip into whatever build you might be working on. It has already had a few years to build up a reputation within the GT500, though with some modifications to make it sturdier than a simple track vehicle. The entire thing runs on Premium fuel, which could be a negative trait, but that’s most things anymore.
If you’re interested, you can purchase the 5.2L Supercharged Predator V8 crate engine found in the 2024 F-150 Raptor R for $29,500, which isn’t a bad price considering all of the components and power you’re getting with the purchase.
