Pro Series Ford 5.0L Coyote Main Stud Kit
Upgrade your Ford 5.0L Coyote modular V8's main bearing fasteners with this Pro Series stud kit, built from 35 chromoly steel for a minimum tensile strength of 190,000 PSI. Factory main bolts are torque-to-yield and not designed for reuse; this stud kit is recommended for performance builds exceeding 500 hp where repeated torque-to-yield bolts would compromise clamping force.
This kit is designed for Gen 1 (2011–2014), Gen 2 (2015–2017), and Gen 3 (2018+) 5.0L Coyote main stud applications and is not compatible with Ford small block Windsor, FE, or 385-series engines — this is a Coyote modular platform kit only. Gen 1 and Gen 2 engines use a 7-quart oil pan, while Gen 3 uses a larger 10-quart pan; verify oil pump pickup tube stud clearance on 2018+ applications with a plastic oil pan, as stud trimming may be required.
What Is a Main Stud Kit?
A main stud kit replaces the factory main bearing bolts with studs — fasteners threaded on both ends that thread permanently into the block and are secured with a nut rather than a bolt head. Because factory Coyote main bolts are torque-to-yield and designed for one-time use, studs provide a reusable, more consistent clamping solution for builds that will see repeated engine assembly or higher cylinder pressures.
Performance Benefits
The 35 chromoly steel construction and 190,000 PSI minimum tensile strength provide significantly more clamping capacity than factory torque-to-yield bolts, helping maintain main bearing bore stability under higher horsepower loads. The 12-point head style and black oxide finish support both a secure installation and a clean appearance, while the two-step torque specification (25 ft-lbs, then 45 ft-lbs on inner bolts up to 80 ft-lbs, 25 ft-lbs on side bolts) is matched specifically to the Coyote's main cap fastening sequence.
