Saw the standing mile hit 300 with a mod motor the other day, made me think of this thread and the only other mod motor fan I know :flipoff1: ****ing impressive though
Correct. But it's a "Duuuh....it should!" from the GM fanboi camp. They like comparing their Halo 2 seater fiberglass bathtub to regular ol Mustangs. You just can't compare the Ford GT Halo car to the GM Halo car. That doesn't make sense. (gay)
I'm not a coyote motor/mod motor nut swinger.
They are physically larger / less displacement.
More expensive
More moving parts
Harder to package / swap
I am a fan of it because it comes out of the gate ready to go, albeit some aftermarket stuff does help.
15-17 heads....good to go factory
cam(s).....good there to.
Intake manifolds.....best you can buy is a Ford factory one / practical uses
Throttle body....stock works
Exhaust manifold/headers/whatever you wanna call em.....fairly good for most part.
I like the lesser lower torque higher RPM performance (for what I do).
For the most part GM/LSX nutswingers won't admit ANY faults. One of the best statements i've heard was, "I can blow up 5 junkyard LS motors for the price of 1 ford/coyote motor!"
I like all motors for different reasons/uses. Probably the only 2 I don't seem to care for are the 4g63/4 Mitsu engines and the 13B Rotary stuff. They're like the LS engines of the import world. :)
