Just curious if anyone has decided to build an all aluminum 5.4L blown V8 to swap in. It looks like Ford finally decided to offer a usuable block similiar to the one used in the Ford GT.
Ford Racing's website lists part # M-6010-GTWS for $3,999
As basically a Ford GT block machined for a wet sump block face modular oil pump and modular wet sump oil pan. It also includes the stock modular starter pocket.
So my question is, do we now have a bolt in option for an all aluminum 5.4L motor? Because if so this is 100lbs lighter than a cast iron 5.4 block. If you drop one of these all aluminum in a GT, you will have one fast car a hundred pounds or so lighter than a GT500.
Thoughts, ideas, issues, any feedback welcome at this point
