Default Ford Crate Motor For 2005 5.4L 3V V8

Wanting to drop in a good crate motor to start a 600-750HP build. Needing help on finding a motor that will fit my F-150 without any problems. Was looking here http://www.fordracingparts.com/m/CatResults.asp?c=56
Just put a 2 1/2" leveling kit 20" XD Wheels and Toyo Open Country M/T 35" and the stock engine is not going to put out the power I'm wanting. Help please...

Alright so I have decided that I'll keep the stock motor and build it up to 500+ HP instead off trying to find a new motor. Need help with this build and no idea what he means by a tuner... New to the motor building group...

Whipple Supercharger 8psi will get you 400-420 hp at the wheels. No other mods. Thats 500+ at the motor. You'll want a custom tune and SCT tuner from JDM to complement the setup.

If your going for all that power a 5.4 4valve is the way to go. It'll get it easier, and hold up to it without breakin a sweat
