Needs to be more Astony
I thought Coyote was going to fix the 100mm bore spacing of the 4.6 but that article says it has the same spacing. It is a great engine but leaves nothing on the table in terms of ability to increase displacment...

They had to maintain the 4.6 bore spacing so it could be produced on the same machinery as the 4.6, otherwise cost would have been prohibitive and they wouldn't have made the new motor.

The new 5.0 is going to be good for close to 500 HP normally aspirated before they are through, it's already doing better than 430 HP in its present state.

500HP is so 2004 too. Having a 700HP N/A motor would be awesome. That's near NASCAR specs in a streetable engine.
A 5.8L version of this motor would be one to get fo' sho'. If you want big power, you aren't getting it with this engine or a 4.6/5.4 unless supercharged. I'd like to see Ford have an N/A application capable of huge power.

Actually they do with the 6.2L Boss motor (to bad its a big ol' honk'n cast iron engine). The 2v SOHC with the 6.2L's bore nearly match the 4v heads on the 5.0L in flow.
That engine would be beast with a 4v VVT setup like the 5.0 (provided it was all aluminum and came at the same weight or lighter than the 5.4 in the '11 GT500)
