Don't like ls's plus it's going in a ford

How is a bouncer a Ford? You have a Ford Transmission?

I would guess most bouncers use LS based motors. There are a few Fords, but not as many that you hear of. The power/torque curve from modern fuel injected motors is pretty hard to dispute. Reliable too. If I had the money, I would have an LS based buggy :****:

Ford body, Ford motor, Ford trans, Ford tcase, would be a Ford bouncer

I am lost. Bouncers are typically buggies designed to go really fast up hills with no worry of damage. Kind of a make it or break it go fast assault. Having a full body makes me think trail rig. Go with a punched out 460. No replacement for displacement is what the old school engine builders will tell you.

A coyote would be sweet but are still expensive

If your going to build a bouncer better get ready for Expensive! 5.0 FI would still be a good candidate.

408 stroker ford! You can make plenty of power with a small block without all the weight of a big block. I vote small block all the way.

Jon Piper · Jan 3, 2016

It's should start out as 351w based. If you can swing an aftermarket block to support the 4.125(ish) bore then you can make some pretty serious power.

If your budget is telling you to go with a stock block then I suggest stock rods , 302 Pistons and a 3.850 stroke crank for a cheap 393 vs 408. Spend your money where it makes horsepower in the heads/cam.
