The appeal of modular Ford engines...
As a builder, I have to be in tune with the desires/wants/needs of my customers. With that being said, it seems a lot of guys are turning to the Coyote to power their Cobras.
I have my own viewpoints here, but I'm trying to be objective as I can....so I'm asking this:
What do you guys find appealing about the Coyote engine? Is it the EFI? Price? Something different from the other Cobra owners?
If I could build a naturally aspirated EFI modular Ford that made more horsepower for around the same price of a Coyote, would that be appealing? I dabble in modular stuff and currently have a Ford Racing block being machined right now for a 331ci build, based on 4V heads. Naturally aspirated horsepower should be over 500 and this engine could be finished in either carbureted (and a distributor too) form or in all electronic EFI form.
