[QUOTE="SVTCobra60, post: 16114670, member: 104950"] Great video thanks. Avoid bastard child LOL I haven't gotten a response back from MMR yet. What was the reason for punching/boring it out more? Wouldn't the decreased wall thickness make the block a bit weaker under big power conditions? I am not quite sure what FE stands for, I assume AL is aluminum lol. Fantastic article thanks for that, is the 5.4 cobra jet block the same as the 11-12 GT500? Thanks so much for all of the info! Did you sleeve the 5.8 block your purchased? And I assume you got aftermarket rods/pistons? Why would you punch out your 5.4 to a larger bore? A few sentences later you mention boring the block could be a bad idea for big power applications (unless you would bore it out to 3.68 and aim for a conservative power level?) I very much love the 13-14 tail lights, would definitely want that done if I got an 11-12 car. Nice to know of the other interchangeable "bolt on" parts! Based on that, sounds like the 11/12 would be best. Would you also recommend a sleeved block if wanting a "monster" haha [/QUOTE]
