the NA Coyote makes less power than the other two, by quite a lot. But it's extremely predictable and easy to drive.
Whichever motor you choose, install EFI right in the beginning. I'll never mess with a carb gain.

Bobcowan's viewpoint is in sync with mine.
A 427W FI crate engine will produce a predictable push to 575HP at 6500 which is plenty for these cars.
In addition, there's less complexity to contend with when it's time to wrench.
