Will the 5.0 become obsolete
Now before I get mugged and beat down let me say I loce 5.0's I got one in fact.
Okay now that being said technology is increasing every day I think it like doubles every year or somethign really crazy. Now the modular motors are rolling out and have been aorund fro a few years and alto fo the kinks are being worked out. Not sure but i think Ford has 6 spds out or coming ot wiht them. Where do you guys see the 5.0 in 10 years. I imange the mod motors will eb the 5.0 of today in a few years. Okay now that i have blabbed let me get to some questions. First off Ive read teh modular motors are reving machines. Why is that I mean cant you get your 5.0 to rev in the 7,000's? Do they mean more of in stock form tehy can rev higher? Also i hear gas mileage and afew littel other thigns are better abotu the newer motors btu their low end is pretty low. So Bascailly Im wonderign even 5 years down teh road is the mod motors gonan dominate or is the pushrod motors still gonna be a good choice. What would be better if i was not to be able to dirve for 5 years and i was gonna build a car. The newer motors have benifits but the aftermarket is kinda skimpy and expensive. ACtaully it coems down to do yu want a motor that can rev to give more horses or more torque down low and as far as i knwo oyu want a reving car. All Oppinions na dhtought would be helpful thanks guy
