Hard to beat the low end torque of the Chevrolet LT engine. I like the sound the mustang coyote makes but I'm not wanting to get over 6000 rpm before I appreciate it. The LT1 is cheaper to build, much larger with fewer moving parts, is lighter, and makes good power in all rpm ranges. The Camaro has the looks as well as that low end kick in the pants. Yes I'm sure Chevrolet will go to the dual overhead cam route someday but I still love the pushrod LT1 engine. I also like the fact that I can run on four cylinders with the automatic in any mode once I back off the throttle on my corvette grand sport.
Agree. Let's see if the new 460hp Coyote will actually perform. The last go-round was slow by comparison when up against the Camaro which with just radials could hit high 11's whereas the best I've seen stock Mustangs go down the strip was high 12's and that was with an auto. My guess is now they will finally hit low to mid 12's with the new 10spd transmission. I still like beating up on them badly though
