A motor would flow better out if the box with boost that has twice the valves and four cams. Who would ever have guessed? That can’t be why pretty much any car that came from the factory with a turbo in the last twenty years had 4v’s per cylinder. Strange. Those motors also very seldom get swapped to another platform because of that same complexity as a 5.0/5.4/5.8. Thank god the 5.0 can handle some boost. If not the dealership/bank would have a hard time letting you turn in a leased car with a blown engine.

i know exactly what it is. I know it's far better than that old modular junk. I know parts don't swap easily between them. I know a modular pcm ain't gonna control a coyote. I know the harness doesn't work. You acted like they were as interchangeable as the ls stuff. And they're not.
but the modular don't flow better. If it did it could make enough power to compete na.....but it can't. Boost just masks it because they typically run them with more boost.
that's why the 5.8 runs at more boost with a smaller blower than the lt5....hell the lt4 runs at less boost with a smaller and the same power. The ls9 made nearly the same power with a lesser flowing blower on 5lb less boost. The lsa would no doubt make more power than the 5.8 at the same boost level and efficiency and has been known to hold more power.

At the end of the day I will put my truck motor against any ls1/6/2/3/9/7/a with a similar combo. The fact you say the lsa would make more power than the 5.8 just goes to show how delusional you are.

Well for one being a 4v has nothing to do with the short block derp. It has a Triton "truck motor" block and crank. That is like saying a 5.3 is no longer a truck motor once you add different heads and a turbo lmao but it's ok Doug you are not the only LS my truck motor will gap.

Cool....put it in sbe and see if it keeps up with those sbe 5.3 truck motors. But we know you won't. Cause they weak af.
btw....the 5.3 wasn't used in any performance application. It truly is a truck motor.

Probably go boom at 600 just like a 5.3. Triton is truly a truck motor

ls7 is truly bolt on.
you shoulda tried to leave the 13s na in your 5br0
lol....pos triton wouldn't make to 450. Do it....prove me wrong.
Hell your ***** *** still ain't ran that pos 5.4 truck you have. You were supposed to do that.....just alot of mouth is all you are.

LT4 is another story. It will handle more power sbe than the Gen3 Coyote. It is a beast. Again.. limitation is stock fuel system. Aux port injection solutions are available tho but will cost 4-5k range now.

Meh.. again... simple dropin pistons thrown in while motor is in the car will take you over 1000. OEM rods are good for it
