[QUOTE="cottondoc, post: 12650876, member: 124770"] The point? I don't understand that question, but I'll try to explain. I plan on building a new motor for my cobra. I want it to make the most power possible. You can just about buy a 5.0 Aluminator long block with forged, low compression rotating assembly for less than you could build a similar Boss 5.0 iron block and fill it with a good rotating assembly. I would then put a twin screw blower or turbos on it. I assume everybody on here wants to make the most horsepower per dollar spent that they can. I am no expert, but from everything I read on the internet forums and in magazines, it looks like to me that the new coyote 5.0 has way more potential for horsepower than even a 5 liter Boss block or sleeved 4.6 block with 4 valve 4.6L based heads. Maybe I am wrong in that assumption? If so, I would like someone more knowledgeable to tell me why I am wrong. That is the reason for my original post. I think the 5.0 coyote heads flow much better than terminator heads do, even if you port the terminator heads. Thats why I asked if coyote heads could be put on a big bore 4.6L based block. I don't want to spend a ton of money building a built 4.6L based engine just to find out that I could have spent the same or maybe a little more to get coyote heads and made way more power.
