Anyone interested in 5.4L swaps, in here. Need you to opine.
 

Hey guys and gals:

A little background: I'm swappin' a 5.4 into my 03GT. So are lots of people. I'm going one farther for all of you....

I've been working with a couple companies to resolve my intake manifold issues (I hate plastic and want a stock look with more performance). They've both already got 4.6L manifolds cast from aluminum and are seeing nice gains even NA. One is definitely going to make a 5.4 manifold that looks just like the OEM black plastic from the top but in aluminum, and oodles better.

Also, besides Reichard Racing there's another company that will soon come out with 4.6L to 5.4L 2V adapter plates. Schweet!

What I need from everyone is an answer to the following questions:
Is there a 5.4L swap in your future do you think?
If no to the above, would a 5.4L swap interest you if it were easy?
If you could do it would you?
How long from now till you do it if at all?
If a <$1000 intake was available that made it easy and inexpensive to swap in a 5.4, would you consider it then if you're not already?
If you're planning on it already, how are you hoping to tackle the intake problem? Adapter plates? 5" cowl hood? Hole in the hood? New intake that'll be there when you're ready?

If you own an Fx50 with the 5.4L in it, would a new intake interest you if it would wake the motor up and let it pull all the way to redline? Added 20+hp? Moved the tq peak out to 4500 from ~3900?

These are just feelers. If there's enough interest in the 5.4 swap, the parts will be made. If not, they won't and I'll be a sad panda.

No double posting.
