[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15890407, member: 166576"] The 5.8's apparent weak link is connecting rod design. Factor in that JDM is the only place to buy upgraded pistons for it and its easy to see where the disconnect is. 5.4s are in a better position. If i were building a dedicated drag car off that architecture, id use the 07-10 iron block. Coyote is an outstanding platform. When building with a proper forged rotating assembly and cams ground for boost, they are downright monsters. Yolodouchebag has his stock cammed S550 Coyote with VMP Gen3 shifting at 8k if IIRC. Slight displacement increase, 5.2 Voodoo heads, boost ground cams, forged crossplane crank, connecting rods and pistons with a TVS 2650 rotor pack? Sounds like a recipe for a monster power output engine. How much Ford will give it from the factory is up to them. The street and track guys will figure an easy 100hp upgrade, with 200 not much of an unrealistic number with the right mods.
