If you want modern (427) engine
It could only be an ls7,
forged titanium, 6-bolt mains you should try us,
Anything else, coyote or ford is merely bias!


Like I've said before, truth is it's each to their own with this stuff & I for truly enjoy the variety & craftmenship that goes in to this stuff...
But can someone please explain - if people are willing to "push the edge" (& more power be to them) with a modern engine, why they feel it's ok to put a coyote in the engine bay and scoff at the thought an ls7!?

It seems to me that the ls7 out of the box, is arguably a superior engine, and would fit happily in the engine bay of any modern cobra replica, without the need to modify foot boxes and chassis.

So if all things are equal, I've concluded this rubric generally explains the majority:
People who chose with their hearts pick the fe.
People who chose with their wallets probably pick the widsor
People who chose with their heads should pick the ls7
So how does one end up with the coyote?
I agree totally, the ls7 is by far the best crate motor going, thats why the corvette has such a huge following there awesome.
