5.0 swap vs building the 6.2

[EricM]

Your are really better off building the engine at the stock 6.2L size if you plan to run a blower. The pistons and cylinders will last longer if the pistons come out of the hole less, and you'll have less side loading of the skirt and block due to better rod angles.

This would be a fully built engine, keep in mind.

There is no difference. Rod angles are rod angles.

It's all about the angle to the dangle.

Do you have any experience with building 6.2's?

Would have been nice if ford made a gen 2 6.2
