Now can a Coyote engine make anywhere even close to the power and tq of a big block? No. It can't.

All this talk about engines and high revving DOHCs and such...yet the Mustang is still the slowest of the 3 Muscle Cars by far. Both in a straight line and on a track. And that is even after a massive upgrade done to it, lol!! High revving DOHC engines are for posers who want to FEEL like they're going fast. Pushrod engines that make gobs of torque down low and then carry hp/tq thru it's entire band are for when you actually wanna GO fast.
Ok so all Europeans sport cars are for posers then ?

- GT3-RS/GT2 RS
- Mclaren 540/570/720
- Ferrari 812/488
- LP610/750 Performante

Etc etc all of them with DOHC engines...

Dodges are only fast on straight line...Put a Hellcat on a roadcourse, it is very funny...

Edit : forgot the Viper my bad...the only driveable at the limit though is the ACR...the other ones want to kill you all the time...
