Good to see some of the early rumours being confirmed. Of course, this thread is useless without more spyshots

I wonder if they'll upgrade the rubber to try to handle the extra power?

Maybe I missed it because I'm tired... Will it be based off the 5.0, 5.4, or destroked 6.2?

Whatever it is, I really hope it implements vct, this would make me trade up right away...

im guessing since they have all the money on the 5.4 aluminum block. Would imagine it would be a bore and stroke deal.
