I guess I should say that this is the High Output 3.5L Ecoboost crank, but raptor is more fun. I thought I would make a post separately for this as I think this is some good information for anybody going through a big build. This is all of the items you need for the Raptor Ecoboost to work in your SHO.
Crankshaft part number:
Crank Timing Sprocket:
16+ Updated Pulley:
So here is the deal. I knew this was possible from some other engine builders doing so, just didn't hear anything from them on how to do it. Which I absolutely understand sometimes you keep information to yourself on things like this but wanted to share it with y'all.
Reasoning for the different crank timing sprockets (both 29 teeth and same tooth spacing) is because the snout of the crank shaft on the raptor crank is slightly different. In fact while talking with my parts guy he found out that if you are to order a new short block from ford it has the same style of updated crank and states you need this 16+ crank pulley and the updated crank timing sprocket. So this should be everything you need. All the ecoboost bearings are the same so everything crosses over in that same sense. However always make sure you double check all your bearings etc etc yada yada.
So for anybody looking for a little bit of a better set up, not that our cranks are weak by any means, here is how you do it! I haven't put out any footage on this yet on the youtube channel just because waiting for more parts to come in, but figured this was a good tid bit of information I had to share. I'll update this down the road once I have everything in the engine but this SHOULD be it. I don't see why anything else would need changed because of it due to the updated short blocks having these parts anyways. Let me know if you guys have any questions!
