Wow, You know, seriously...and I am applying this to the flamers in general... feel free to continue on with the ranting at will but for the love of Pete please actually read the posts before doing so. The 5.0L Cammer Ford offers in crate form is effectively a homologation piece and is not the 5.0L slated for 2011MY production and I have never said that it was. In fact, it isn't even close to the same with the basic basis for the engines being different. The 5.0L Cammer is based on an overbored 4.6L while the upcoming 5.0L production piece is based on a destroked, and slightly poked, 5.4L.
