Hey Mercury I'd like to have one of those overhead cam Ford engines for my altered. A 427 SOHC that is! A guy close by in Belleville,Ill runs one in his nostalgia TF dragster. It doesn't hook up until half track and still runs over 200mph. But being a poor working man I am having to build a BB chevy, it was already set-up for one anyway. As far as the 4.6 vs 5.0 goes, looks like a pretty even match up so far. I wouldn't supercharge if the 4.6 isn't fast enough though. Would rather see a displacement increase. I think rocket 99 was wanting just wanting more displacement not a change back to pushrods.
