    Why not just turbo the 5.0L? They are making nearly that much power on 6psi boost with it already in aftermarket shops.

    Also, if they want more displacement, why design a new 5.8L instead of just dropping in the 6.2L engine already in the Raptor and supercharge that beast? That's what chevy did with the Camaro and Corvette ZR1.
