Dangit Brad....LoL, you're really tearing me apart here....I could never decide between the '69 and '70 BOSS 429. The '69 looked a lot better but the '70 was tuned so much better and bone stock (with slicks) it ran a 12.3 back in the day...just imagine the potential today with such a block (via the Cobra/BOSS conversion...my my my...heheh).

2003 s/c 4.6

The engine is a monster, and can be built up to produce upwards of 500hp with simple mods.

1987 5.0. Still love them. Easy to work on, easy to mod (Mass Air), reliable, etc.

I'll go with the 2000 Cobra R engine. Yea, I know the Cobra R engine is way different than the truck 5.4, but we've had 2 Expeditions and now a F-150 with that engine and they've been great and I imagine in Cobra R tune in the Mustang, it must be unbelieveable! Love to see the new Stang with a 5.4!
