Do you want to drive it, or show it? If you want to drive it, get the Coyote. If you want to pull in a parking lot and show it, get the 427.

That is why you see so many resto-mods these days going for big bucks with stock LS3's and various other new engines. You hop in, start it, and drive away. No muss no fuss.

My buddy has a 1992 Mustang. Water pump went out. The local Autozone had to order for him. It took 2 days. Not a huge deal, but he missed a whole weekend of driving. Old engines (old designs might be a better term) are harder to find parts for.
