2 valve pushrod motor still getting it done. 5.0 motor is is a great one, good technology, great hp/to per cubic inch. All in all both camps should be stoked that these motors are readily available no matter what brand you like. Sucks to be a dodge guy! J/k

The displacement thing is *always* a big argument with this ****. The LS with its simplicity fits more cubes in a smaller package. 5.0 gives up some cubes for those fancy 4 valve heads. It's a trade off, two different ways to make the power, and it is absolutely pointless for the 5.bros to complain about displacement or the LS crew to complain about valves and cams. Jeez.

It would be IMO as well. Mine with a mid sized cam is putting down close to 700 crank NA. Bigger bump stick, that pulls more revs would be close to 800 crank.

Well, what I got out of them putting that piece of information in, is that if the ci of the motors were the same, than the Coyote would have made more due to more hp/ci. I think that is what they were hinting at. Hence the reason for my post above.
edit: I know that is some ricer bs, btw

Another question......the ls3 heads flow more than the coyote heads. So how would it even make the ls3 hp in this test with the same displacement?

It's called bore spacing and deck height. They did about all they could to get 5.2 out of it. Those engines are already getting working pretty hard and they have to run 100k+ miles. In oe form especially they have to be more than hp/tq makers.

Yea i lol'd at that. They said that to make the furd guys feel better. So tell me if you use the same heads.....the same cam where is the extra power coming from?
