I would becareful jumping onto the 2011 5.0, I just came from a 6.0 Powerstroke, and I trust a new engine from Ford about as far as I can throw one. I only considered the Stang in my search because I knew it was still going to have the 4.6L V8, I know its tried and true. This new 5.0 I think is going to have some issues. Good luck on you search bud!
Isn't the 5.0L the same as the old 302 introduced in the late '60's? If so, that was a very reliable power plant and Ford used it for decades.
