The Ford Coyote 5.0 V8 has been around since 2010, and the current version of the Chevrolet LT1 6.2 V8 premiered in 2013. Both powerplants have stuck around for well over a decade (the LT1 persisting as a crate engine), thanks in large part to their reputation for dependability. Plus, they’ve only gotten more dependable thanks to 10+ years of iterative tweaks, upgrades, and fixes.
