Default Natural aspiration engine

I am trying to buy a 5.0 V8 with a 373 rear axle. Very hard to find it! Saw a dealer ad for a 5.0 V8 "natural aspiration". What does that mean?

Naturally aspirated means it does not have forced induction such as a turbocharger or supercharger.

^^ What he said ^^

Dealers throw extra words in to try and get people intrigued.

Example you might see:

5.0L V-8 COYOTE 4V DOHC NATURALLY ASPIRATED!! 360HP!!

Really though this is good enough.

5.0L V-8

Dealers try to sound smart and stuff lol

So actually, if it's a 5.0 v8, then it would be natural aspiration. Correct?
