2. Coyote foundation, but not a parts-bin build.
The engine may have been birthed from the same architecture as the 435-hp Coyote 5.0 from the new Mustang GT, but nearly everything has been replaced. The new 5.2-liter engine has its own block casting, new crankshaft (duh), new pistons, new connecting rods, new heads, new cams, new intake, new oil pan, and a new harmonic balancer to smooth out the flat-plane’s inherently tricky vibrations. The only carry-overs from the Coyote 5.0 are hangers-on such as the alternator and starter and a few small components in the valvetrain. The 5.2 also utilizes plasma-transferred wire-arc cylinder coatings like the outgoing GT500.

The single biggest challenge in creating a long-stroke flat-plane crank (FPC) V8 like the Voodoo is vibration (specifically a pronounced second-order lateral shake). So, given its huge-for-a-FPC 92.7 mm stroke, it's no surprise that quelling the Voodoo's vibes was one of Ford's primary development tasks.
For reference, the 5.0 also has a 92.7 mm stroke, meaning that the new crank is NOT a stroker crank and that all of the extra 0.2L displacement came via a bigger bore.
