Those Coyote engines are fun and very reliable. Sound great too. No turbo lag since it is a naturally aspirated engine. With four valves per cylinder it has no problem breathing. Throttle response is there.

I am not sold on the new ten speed. I like the six speed better.

You got that right on the motor,I was Leary on the ten speed but I already have 43k on the ten speed and it's the smoothest power delivery since my old Chevy pu with 350 ci and a turbo-hydramatic 400.Back the we races the 400 hard.
