The answer seems easy - which one of these two great options do you want to choose?

Easy for my - I have a modified 5.4 2-valve at present so the Coyote is a must... it's Ford!
But the LSx remains a good option and some now being put in are very neat indeed.. It just isn't a Ford!

I never had an issue getting parts from the USA. I used Troyer Performance ( http://www.troyerperformance.com ) and sourced a whole engine rebuild. By talking with Mike Troyer on the phone we arranged all I needed to upgrade the engine and I bought custom cams, a set of pistons and rods and valves etc and at a competitive price. The issue was finding someone who would talk to me and who understood the engine and what I wanted to do - which was basically to get the best of the motor for the application.
I also talked to a mate in Calgary in Canada and he bought bits for me and sent them over - they were cheap compared to Oz. S0 all it takes is some thought and time spent with Mr Google!!
(and of course - $$)
Cheers
Pete

Well, after much sniffing around, got confirmation today that the HRT 427 manifold was created by ........Harrops.
Only 2 complete sets were created, but the tooling is still sitting on the shelves at Harrops, including models, although the CF air box tray has been modified to suit the US G8/GTO bonnet scoop.
Time for a face to face, I'm still expecting disappointment though.

hi Sideshow, the pic was from an auction site for a hsv prototype monaro 427, only 2 cars were made, one was sold for about 920k, just love the manifold, but cant find out who made it, looks a little nicer than the Kinsler version,

I think many other things on either motor will
fail before 200000 Kms
even parts on rest of car will fail by then

Hey all..have not read the whole thread and loving the LS3 Walky upgrade I am running in the daily...but the Coyote has some phenomenal potential for a 5.0 displacement ..(well sort off anyhow not counting SC cubes)...ahem 560 KW...may be a tad wild for a one tonne car though...but makes one rethink the old "no replacement for displacement"...merely food for though...and I am a big fan of the howling ford!
