You're a Mustang guy, a stroked 4.6 isn't near the motor that a 331 or 347 stroker in a Fox is. I just think it will take a lot more than a longer stroke to make a "sleeper" out of an F-150. I mean a stock 2014+ 5.3L GM runs just about as fast as a Gen 10 Lightning.
I ain't a mustang guy I just don't wanna LS swap it. I wanted to make some power with the 4.6 but like you said a lot more than a stroker is needed for what I want. I'm gonna have to invest in a 5.0

Oh, absolutely not. LOL I love the LS platform just as much as I love Fords but I am not a believer of swapping an LS into Ford
