in fact 4banger bodys are better than 5.0 as i read an artcle saying that the 4 banger engine cant really mess up the subfram and torque boxes which is a huge problem when buying a 5.0 now days

I havent totally made up my mind yet. I am going to do a little research to figure out carb or EFI and turbo or super charge.
