So then it does boil down to a terminology issue. When I say "stock" I mean stock as it left the factory. When you say "stock" you mean a casting that carries the factory part number. Upon re-reading my post, I can see how it would be easy to confuse what I said because I didn't elaborate on "stock."

There's potentially a big difference between as it left the factory and after modification to the factory part. So would you agree that taking a bone stock 5.0 and simply bringing the heads into the garage and having an amateur going at them with a knurled cutting wheel and a drill (i.e. junk home port job), and throwing on a 60mm T/B is not going to get you 285rwhp?

That's what I'm talking about, and that's why I called BS. Everything about my BS call goes out the window as soon as you starting talking about quality headwork on the E7s, and professionally porting the intake, etc.
