What are my engine choices

I dont mind the look of the LS motor and it can be made to look very pretty and go bloody hard for cheap but they just dont sound as good as a Ford motor I reckon, might be something to do with the firing order.

You can't beat the sound of the 347 Windsor with Eight carb Webbers but they'are so expensive to build. I built a Mustang with 365 cubic inch Windsor With dart block and AFR heads, And forged internals. It cost me 10 grand and that was only in long motor stage with no cam or rocker gear. And it would never pass emissions for a Cobra build. throw 10 grandad a LS motor And You will have an animal of a motor 600 + hp. LS motors Sound pretty good with a decent cam. I love Windsors And of been a Ford boy all my life but a LS Motor will save you a ****load of money And more hp. I would rather have more hp than a Ford badge under the Bonnet. But if money is no object build a crazy Windsor. They are a beautiful motor.
