[QUOTE="americansteel, post: 13764315, member: 149471"] there's a guy 30 minutes from where my shop is, he has a 5.8l trinity motor he grabbed from a totaled GT500. sold the blower and manifold, the heads were slightly ported comp cams were ordered for the 5.8l 100MM TB and a sheet metal intake fabbed up by MMR that engine made 492HP at 6700RPM and 442FT lbs at lower RPM'S than the 5.0l. the 5.8l has an advantage of 49 cubic inches. the current 5.0 makes 445HP at 6600RPM and 407 FT lbs. that cubic inch advantage is going to compress more air and fuel than what the 5.0 can do in result making more power through the whole rpm range. its just like the same heads/cams being on a 4.6l and swapped onto the 5.4l what engine is going to make more power? the 5.4l will. the 5.8l heads and 5.0l heads flow numbers don't really differ much. what people don't realize is they think they know what ford invested on the 5.8l ( in reality they don't) look at the previous comments ^^. in fact ford did invest a lot on the 5.8l trinity engine and has plans for it. the 5.8l will be standard for the mach1 package that was confirmed by ford and in the UAW contracts. and the new SVT product will have the 5.8l. and there will be no 5.2l engine in the mustang. 5.0 to 5.2? that's a joke. why stretch an existing engine out when you already have a bigger engine? people on this forum just don't get that.
