I should have...parts are twice as expensive for a 4.6 lol... and the aftermarket is huge...but not like it is for 5.0s lol.

Motor died due to an oiling issue...2 rods out the block later I put in a 2nd...same heads...had melted cam caps and caused the same failure...3rd seems ok for now knock on wood lol

Rear...well 5500rpm launches are gonna hurt ya no matter what lol

And the trans...I'm now tied w how many I blew up w the 5.0...so its a push

At the enda the day if I could have a newedge w a 5.0...id be set lol
