yeah GM motors are cheaper because they sell more motors than vehicles to put them in. also auto parts stores no matter which one you go into 70% of inventory is GM parts. i was tempted to do a GM swap into my truck until ford stepped up their game and blew away everyone with the 5.0 and 6.2 finally put good heads on a reliable and durable short block.

Reliable.....like they have lasted for a year???? How many of the new Ford 5.0/6.2's are rockin strong with 200K?? Zero!
What would it cost to go out and buy one right now? I would bet you could do ALOT to an 6.0 for what you will pay for a stock Ford that has been out for MAYBE 18 months.

2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 Coyote Engine - 5.0 Mustang & Fast Fords
Ford Racing Coyote 5.0 4V 412HP Mustang Crate Engine M-6007-M50 - Free Shipping!
I am not trying to get into the whole who is better because I think that the new Ford powertrains are very enticing and IF i were to buy a new truck right now it would be a Ford with either the 5.0 or the 6.2 I am just leery on the durability of a "new" engine from anyone. So as stated first I will wait and see how they last.
