Ford Mustang Engines by Year
The Ford Mustang engine catalog lists nine engine entries across the years covered. Read each engine name together with its year range: the range indicates when that engine appears in the catalog, not a power or performance rating.
The listings show changes in engine offerings over time. The 3.8L Essex V6 SPI is listed for 1999-2004, while the 4.0L Cologne V6 SOHC is listed for 2005-2010. The 5.0L Coyote appears for 2011-2022, and the 2.3L EcoBoost for 2015-2022. Other entries include the 4.6 L 2-Valve for 1999-2010, the 5.4L Modular V8 4-Valve for 2007-2012, and Duratec 37 for 2011-2017.
A year range can overlap with another engine’s range, so use the specific model year and engine name when comparing entries. These facts do not provide engine ratings or confirm which engine was fitted to a particular vehicle; check the door jamb or the owner's manual for vehicle-specific details.
