First post, and I have been reading on this link for awhile before even registering. Couple of questions that I have that I didn't see or maybe over looked. Now alot I have seen is that peole are going with the 4.6 stroker to get a 5.0. Now I have seen good results with those apps, but makes me wonder why alot of people are putting the 5.4 down. Is it because of a whole new short block? Or is it that you have to use the spacers to get a 4.6 intake to work?
What is the limiting flow on the engine when you have a 2V and not even considering a 4V. Mostly for cost. Is it the intake or heads, or a combo of both?

Thanks for anyone who can give me some answers.
