[QUOTE="twistedneck, post: 15427175, member: 130159"] biminiLX, this eninge is amost identical to the original Aluminator sans the heads. I happen to have a built 5.0 Coyote running 11:1 w E85 and everything the crate motor has except the wicked GT350 heads. it all comes down to the heads.. I'm about to pull the trigger and re-build my own 5.0 Coyote via Holbrook with some 13:1 pistons and very radical cams - something the new Aluminiator 5.2 cannot do - its got normal big cams and is designed for durability and drivability. The only wild card is how much more power can you make with the larger valved slighter larger ports of the GT350? I'm sure the guys at Holbrook know that answer and will determine if I sell my great boss heads! Just like this old coyote engine loves boost and E85 it loves compression and E85 don't be afraid of 13.5:1 / Darton sleevs / 94mm bore if you can find a good piston -the Mahle ones only go to 12.3:1 so they wont cut it. What am I trying to say? Save you cash and get Holbrook to re-build your engine for the same price it will make more power and be more unique and if you have E85 in the area - even better. if you don't have an engine to start with? go with the 5.2XS all day long.. great offering !!
