New Boss 5.0 Modular Block

[BoostedGT480]

how much HP can this support?

depends on what internals are in it...Its just like the factory 4.6L alum block, except this is solid iron. Wont flex with high hp #'s. The one Im building can handle well over 1000whp

so, this will use my 06 oil pan, 06 heating and cooling system, 06 transmision, ETC? i just worry about going to get it installed and get phone calls saying, "you need this this and this to make it work. and oh by the way, you need these 8 parts also.
can you shed some light on the bottom end?
i was planing on gettig a cmpleted forged shortblock already built. o, i havnt looked much into internal by themselves. im clueless as to what to get

It uses everything your stock motor does. The only thing different is the motor mount adapters required. Everything else bolts up as normal.

Bottom End. This motor uses stock sized rods, stock sized crank, and a bigger piston. You can use any stock length forged rods. You can use your stock crank or a cobra forged crank. Pistons and motor mount adapters are the only thing different.

The benefits of this combo is A. Bulletproof block basically and B. You get more cubic inches while retaining the stock rod/stroke ratio, which means more longevity.
Thanks,
Mike

PM Replied. For anyone else thats is curious and isn't sure...This block uses everything your 4.6 does. It can accept 2v, 3v, or 4v heads. The only thing really required for this block is motor mount adapters, which go for around $100...give or take. Any other questions from anyone feel free to ask. This is still brand new, never taken out of the FORD shipping container that is pictured in the first post. Block has been stored in Air conditioned house since I received it from FORD.

Thanks.
