[QUOTE="Fourcam330, post: 9043634, member: 24445"] IIRC the new 5.0L bores are 3.66" or 3.6X" at least, most 304 BB 5.0Ls are 3.70. We know already that you can't boost them to near stock displacement levels. So unless Ford wants the block to be the limiting factor (you have to admit a split block is a great way to tell if someone's voided their warranty;-)) or completely redesigns the motor with different bore spacing/more meat between bores, I really truly hope it does NOT happen for everyone's sake. Again there's a reason chevy went from 7.0L to 6.2L with the ZR1. The guys in the gulf with TT LS7 dune buggy's blow them all the time even with lower compression bottom ends. I'm sure there are pics of a BB bore vs a stock or .020"-.030" over bore somewhere on this site. I'd rather have a TT Al block 5.4 or even a 4.6 over the current 5.0Ls. [/QUOTE]
