I just bought a 2014 FX4 - 5.0 with 3.55s - Tuxedo Black Metallic. Eventually, I'll lift and upsize the wheels/tires.
Curious as to the power hit you took.
I got the 5.0 to but with 3.73 gears currently. When i had 35s at one point it really didnt take much of a hit on the power but then again a good tune from 5startuning and sct programmer helped out a ton. Lets just say with 35s i smoked my friends silverado and he still struggles to pass me even with 40s lol. But a programmer is definitely a must have.

I had a 5Star tune on my 2011 5.0 FX2 and it certainly made a huge difference.
For now, I'm leaving it stock and will upgrade the tuner with a new tune when I lift and get larger tires.
Looking at 35's down the road. Not sure what lift I'll need to accommodate that size tire.
Will also get dual exhaust but the last one had a god awful drone at highway speeds. If they don't make one with no drone, I'll stick with stock. The drone drove me crazy!!
Sorry no details on my profile yet. Its a 2013, 5.0, 6" lift, 35"x12.50" trail grapplers on 20" rims. AMP running boards.... few other things here and there.
