What I got out of the article was that considering the budget cap, and the cost for parts in general for both engines, the LS3 can be built to a higher output for the same price (more or less) than the Coyote, but on the other hand the Coyote is a much higher revving engine with much potential.
Yeah that's fair enough...it would always have the torque advantage, just with the other combination of parts that I listed, the HP advantage would have been minimal.

My issue with the Coyote build list is they added things that plain and simple didn't need to be added. It's like the build the Coyote to take high boost, but ran it with N/A cams and at a N/A compression ratio.

So a $7,800 Coyote build that would produce more power than what they had..compared with the LS3 build that out-torques it (no way around that) but otherwise is comparable.
