Ok, I cannot get my Search to work so I am just going to ask. I am building up a forged 5.4. I will have fully ported heads and custom blower cams. 1.) Providing you have a good tune what is the maximum safe RPM that you can turn these 5.4's to?
2.) Also, can you use a 4.6 flywheel on the 5.4 to bolt up a 5 speed manual?
3.) Last question, Is the stock lightning crank forged?

Thanks in advance for your answers!
