The camaro hasn't been cool since it had a split front bumper and round tail lights.
The reason chevy guys are now using fox bodied mustangs is because they are chevy guys and want to run chevy engines but they do not have a chassis worth using. What's the alternative? A heavy and awkward third gen camaro? Think about it.
The reason ford guys use chevy architecture engines in their boats is availability of parts. The reason for the available parts selection is due to mercruiser being the major marine engine source and the glut of BBC accessories (exhaust, bellhousings, accessory brackets etc.)
Ford has carried the performance torch, uninterrupted, for the last 50 years. Gm and mopar, not so much.
