This Coyote Daytona Prototype was originally built in 2007 to use a Porsche V-8.Troy Fils from Spirit of Daytona would know every detail of the history but to the best of my knowledge, JC France was the driving force behind the Porsche V8 program. Being a part of the Nascar family, they preferred the sound of the V8 versus the standard 6 cylinder that the Porsche backed teams ran. Lazano Bros Porting built the engine out of a Porsche Cayenne V8. Porsche was not happy that they did it so Porsche would never recognize it as an actual Porsche powered vehicle!! That is probably what it is most known for a the car that pissed off Porsche. It still has the Porsche V8 in it but it has bellhousings for GM as well. To see more click here!
