I voted coyote, but only because there was no SOHC 4 litre option :cool:

The Lexus 4.0 is another 'left field' option that has been done in the past.

Or if cost is no object you might as well say a Maserati engine or something. Who would compare an AU motor to a Coyote?

apart from SOHC goodness, only other option I'd even remotely consider would be a Coyote... Although a DART blocked
alloy headed turbo windsor would probably do....

You're a NA man grab a Coyote motor for 6.5K from the US, get it running and go from there. You can even get looms/modified ECU's from there to fit them into project cars.
