[QUOTE="SonicBlueOval, post: 11278366, member: 104885"] I'm assuming since you are saying big-bore teksid, you are talking about resleeving a teksid block? Resleeving blocks can be pretty expensive, so depending on your budget, that may not be money well spent. If you are worried about the 5.0 4v being too expensive and too powerful for autox, I would suggest just building up a 4.6 aluminum 4v. Doesn't need to be teksid, the wap block is plenty strong and is actually a couple pounds lighter. Also, the only exhaust parts you would need to swap are the headers. Everything else is the same. You will also be able to use the ECU that you currently have, I'm still running my gt ecu. Full mach 1 or cobra intake manifold assemblies can be bought unused for very little money <$450. Here's what I would suggest, but of course it all depends on your budget: Aluminum 4.6 with high compression, ported 4v heads, stage 2 cams, tune This will give you plenty of power, and will be cheaper than a coyote swap, not to mention you can keep your A/C if you desire.
