You’ve got to be joking about fords being cheaper/more reliable than the GM platforms for modding right? Really not trying to be a jerk here but that is the calling card of the LS/LT platforms, how bullet proof they are. I realize the LT’s are more expensive to mod than the LS stuff is but fords over head cam motors are a problem filled joke all the way around.

They are well known for dropping valves among other things in stock form and not that’s not just the GT350’s. Hell even the Godzilla 7.3 gas truck motors that went back to pushrods are eating cams left and right in stock form. You say you don’t want a modded car but then say you could slap a pulley on the GT 500 and make another 100HP?
