That's missing the point. If you took a GT350 and kept everything the same (12:1 compression, GT350 cylinder heads, GT350 intake, cams, etc) and simply changed it to a CPC would there be an appreciable difference in performance between the two?"If the end of the day the only "upside" for the voodoo is the legendary sound signature, IS THAT ENOUGH? That's the question. Cause it comes with real liabilities as we've all seen and debated in countless other threads, from added weights and dampers on things, oil filters vibrating loose, etc."
Ah, that and walking a Coyote on track.
The GT350 walks coyotes for a number of proximate reasons, but the motor itself in apples/apples, is the basterdized FPC any better than a CPC? (all other things being equivalent).
I think the empirical real world data is basically........no. A 5.2 Coyote with comparable supporting chops will perform JUST AS WELL as the voodoo, without the pesky secondary vibe issues.
I'm also curious what the redline would have been if Ford actually maintained the UDUD firing order (negating the need for heavy crank counterweights) and rev'd to the moon like GM is doing. THEN, maybe the motor would stand a head taller than the CPC.
