Having a hard time deciding.

[Unit 5302]

I'm talking 320hp at the flywheel. A GT40P setup N/A isn't going to do any more than that either.

I was thinking I could get some 99GT heads/cams, Bullitt intake, and whatever else I needed to do the swap for under a grand if I looked around. The parts might be used, but that's not a big deal. The rest of the setup would probably put me close to 2 grand. Not a whole lot more than the GT40P setup.

I don't think there was much special about the S281. As I recall it was pretty much a GT engine.

With the 5.0, I'd get new GT40P heads, $500 + Steeda Cam + Cobra Intake $400, + exhaust and all that other stuff, I'd be sitting at around 1800 I think.

The difference is I KNOW the 5.0 GT40P setup will make a true 320hp with 9.5:1 CR and last a long time. I don't trust the reliability of the 4.6L at 11:1 CR
