Owned both as daily drivers. The new cars are nice when everything works...
The 99+ aftermarket prices are dropping and rather quickly...
The prices are closer to 33% more than a 5.0L's price.
You can slap a 8-9psi supercharger on a 99+ and get 370rwhp. Do that to a 5.0L and you'll need a GOOD 347. That is close to 3,000 for the bottomend with good stuff and then you have to factor in a nice set of heads (over a 1000 bucks by itself), intake, injectors, cam, lifters, timing chain, full exhaust, etc...etc...it adds up.
You start out with more with a Piheaded 4.6L...
It's up to you...
