There are benefits to both coyote and 427...

If you are not interested in tinkering then I would do a carb'd 427 vs aftermarket EFI. EFI systems will require some maintenance/adjustment that anyone with a computer and FI knowledge can do but you need to find someone.

Coyote...any Ford dealer can maintain.

One note (pun) is sound. Coyote motors do sound different than a 427 R for example. Particulariliy at RPM. Hard to describe but there is a unique pitch to the sound from a Coyote that some do not like.

I do agree with the gent who said other time Coyotes will dominate so from a resale perspective you would be ok.

Thanks!
