"Each engine has to go in it's family..." There are Ford Guys, Chevy guys, Mopar guys, etc, and then there are Car guys. Nothing wrong with any of them, but the Car guys are the ones I like the best because they are the ones that always do the craziest, best stuff with their vehicles.

Factors To Consider: rearrange the questions and the anagram is MEME SWAP which is fitting and easy to remember

Great comparison! I just picked up a wrecked '16 Challenger to swap the 5.7/8HP70 into my '71 Coronet (currently 318/2V). Even if I leave it bone stock it's over double the hp and about 60% more torque. Given the Coronet weighs ~900lbs less than a modern Challenger/Charger it should be amusing.

The mod motor didn’t come in Mustangs until 1996.

I swapped a 5.7 liter Hemi into my 1972 Datsun 510. Of course I had to modify a periscope from a decommissioned submarine, and install it to allow me to see the road from the drivers seat. WORTH IT!!

As a 2016 Mustang GT owner, I don't feel the least bit of motivation to spend scads of cash in return for ever shrinking performance \improvements. 430 HP is plenty for me.

The family engine is important in some situations. When it come for fun, it's personnal.

I love Chevys and I prefer gm products but I can’t deny that the coyote and hemi are both great engines and offer a similar bang for your buck. They have their powers at different rpms and what not but they’re all very very capable engines.

I knew his favorite was the LS before even watching, because it was first in the thumbnail image then the Hemi and coyote was last in order. Sure enough that was the exact order the engines finished in his comparison. <br><br>Personally I would only put a Ford in a Ford a Chevy in a Chevy a Dodge in a Dodge. However if I was putting a V8 in an import that choice would be harder.

LS is my personal favorite if I’m choosing a V8 of course If it’s a 6 cylinder. Well flat 6 obviously 😈

As a "Ford guy" I can't disagree. I love the Coyote, but as a swap motor, it is a difficult choice. It's so expensive and large it doesn't work everywhere like the LS. <br><br>What Jared is not mentioning is how easy it is to get monster HP figures with the Coyote. A simple blower and oiling gear will put you way higher HP and more reliable than the same mods to an LS. Cleetus has proved this.
