Wonder how the warranty is written on the Coyote crate. Under the assumption it could have the same issue.

Pictures of the 5.0 from every imaginable angle, including clear pictures of water passages in the block and cylinder head for all to see: http://www.mustang50magazine.com/te...ord_mustang_gt_50_coyote_engine/photo_12.html
Vfast, you are obviously a bitter and disgruntled Mustang owner. Sell your car to someone who can appreciate it, buy a FWD import, sue the living daylight's out of Ford, and report back to us when you have won your lawsuit. Until, then- chill out, because you're gonna have a pretty long wait for that mailer to arrive in your mailbox giving you a free repair for something you modified having full knowledge of the consequences in regards to your warranty.

I can't help but think that there is a deficiency if the 5.0 can't stand up to basic mods, especially mods that the 4.6 seem to handle with no problem. This especially a problem for the Mustang community since modding is a very big part of the Mustang ownership experience for most of us. Based on whats available through Ford Racing it seems that some one at Ford understands this but apparently some others don't . I'm not saying that Ford should still warranty modified cars, but In my opinion the engines should be able to stand up to them. The way you explained it the #8cyl failure makes sense to a point, but I still say that a bad tune should cause more widespread damage and a properly done tune should not cause any .So you are saying that if I trade my car in for a '13 and bring to a well known competent Mustang Tuner like say Evolution Performance a get a 30hp tune and CAI I run a greater risk then if I buy the Ford Racing 624HP supercharger kit? That's hard to swallow.
Vfasat are you saying that Ford no longer offers the 100K ESP on Mustangs? I hadn't heard that.
thanks for the personal attack..desperate i guess..NOT ONE PIC of the heads next mag.....am I disgruntled...somewhat..do i have the number 8 issue..NO! I really like my car for the most part..but i do feel for my fellow mustang owners' who are dealing with this issue..however as a ford employee you take what a said and twisted it..I can't help but to point out again there are many unmodded mustangs losing their engine to this problem.. even some stealership are using 93 off the lot in fear.. i guess the 80's(mustang) for which had the real 5.0 in themhad very little issues in doubling it's horse power out put to over 400 plus without piston damage on old skool tech.. hey what about that piston slap of the 4.6 that 1000's had? the 5.0 heads are nothing like those 4.6 heads.

Assuming your grammar was perfect, can you be anymore detailed in explaining what specifically you are referring to in the comments as shown above, for not just myself, but anyone else out there reading that might be curious?
Anything GM or any other manufacturer is doing is completely irrelevant to this discussion as it relates to any aspect of the new 5.0, and other Ford engines for that matter.
Wow 150 years? You don't look a day over 130.I've been a mechanic for over 150 years and no company has zero issues!
