Ford Coyote 5.0L F150 Gen 3 Camshafts
If you're here your after next level camshaft designs for your 2018-2023 F150 featuring a Gen 3 Coyote. Whether you’re keeping it naturally aspirated, adding a supercharger, or building a high-output turbo truck, GSC Power-Division Gen 3 Coyote camshafts for the F-150 are engineered to deliver stronger power across the usable RPM range while maintaining drivability and reliability.
While the Gen 3 F-150 5.0L Coyote shares core architecture with the Mustang, it features a unique firing order specific to the F-150 platform. GSC F-150 camshaft profiles are designed and phased accordingly, ensuring proper cylinder-to-cylinder balance, correct valve event timing, and compatibility with factory VCT strategies.
These cam profiles are not guesswork. They are developed using computer-aided simulation, decades of valvetrain engineering experience, and GSC’s proprietary port-balancing process that aligns valve events with real cylinder head flow data. The result is optimized lift, precise rocker geometry, and camshafts that retain VCT functionality—keeping your F-150 civil under load and aggressive when the throttle is down.
At the core is GSC’s exclusive forged billet camshaft blank, manufactured in-house from U.S. bearing-grade alloy steel sourced from a single American mill for consistent material quality. Every camshaft is finished with GSC’s BLACK ISE surface treatment for reduced friction and extreme wear resistance, then precision-machined on advanced CNC equipment to tolerances tighter than OEM for repeatable, proven performance.
