Alot of Questions About Modular Motors

[vetteeatr]

Hey guys I was starting to build a 5.0 enigne to dominate the streets however I wont be able to drive for a few years anyway lol. So I figured by the time i can use allt eh money i blew that technology wont be anywhere near current. Itll be somethign like carburators are today.

We all knwo technology is slowly bumping up the ol HP numbers. I have been able to drive a 2000 cobra dn was blown away by teh smoothness of the whole car. The equipment is jsut in no comparison with the older models like the T-5 and the 5.0. NOt that i dont liek these pieces but quite frankly i wanna up to date.

So I have a a few questions. First off Where the heck do yu get parts to use for these mod motors ive seen a few but the aftermarklet seems to ber really limited and very expensive.

What are th benifits over teh ol pushrod motors compared to teh mod ones? I hear mod has bettr revability better gas mielage smootehr and a hgiher powerband usually.

Now is the powerband jsut because of the cams or can you make the 5.0 have the smae powerband im sure you can somewhat.

Doy ou guys think that the aftermarket wille xplode soon wiht parts for these motors?

Also the parts i assume are alot mroe specialized since you probaly cant jsut be swapping heads with any block and so forth such as the 5.4 and 4.6 but i dont knwo.

Basicalyl do you gusy think these motors are gonna be around for quite some time? How long do oyu think it willt ake for the aftermarket ot get huge and affordable with these engines?

Also jsut give mea rundown of benifits of both engine types. THanks alot i knwo thats quite a bit.
