Reminds me of Gumball 3000, kinda not really. They went to a car show and went up to the owner of a 2000 era V6 Mustang who went a little crazy with plastic chrome. He put a GTR logo on the back (before there was a GTR mustang concept).
They ask him, GTR huh? He says yup, special model. They say thats the rotary in there right? Yup. A rotary with pistons and everything ya? Ya huh.

Some of these are epic. I love the videos at events like Coachella where you can pretty easily get people to say they love band so and so. . . which does not exist.
Or the "Sign this petition to end women's suffrage!" Or "Ban di-hydrogen monoxide."

Like my neighbor, he comes up to me and says, what is that shiny thing behind your front bumper? A cold air intake? I say no, thats an intercooler, its supercharged. He says huh, and leaves.
He actually turns around down the block and comes back to say, but how could it be intercooled if its supercharged? As if I was lying, I showed him.
I would love to have an LT5 in an old hot rod, people walk over and say, what kinda motor is that? Id say, a DOHC corvette motor. Hmmmmm

That's my thought. They tried it and went back to the good old push rods. I love the coyote in my stang, but even with VVTI its no match down low for an LS. It will scream past 7k though.

I do think the coyote is the only DOHC V8 where the packaging was done right.

Nope that thing is monstrous. It takes a lot of room.

Right, it's not the LS motors are probably the best packaged motors out there. The Ferrari photo lacked the huge aluminum intake manifold, the 5.0 was complete. That's really why I don't car for DOHC motors. The heads are too fat.

Total form factor of the Ferrari motor is pretty tight in my estimation, the high rise of the intake under the back of a F458 is just fine. No DOHC is going to fit anything like an OHV ever. For real tiny, can't be a rotary. You can fit those just about literally in your lap. But yeah, no argument here, the best value, packaging performance motor is clearly the LS series. They kind of knocked it out of the park and keep on trucking.
