well, I was wrong about that 3.0...my dad had said that was the motor it was, but after doing a little searching, it doesn't appear to have been an option.
The 5.8 has alot more torque seat wise than the 4.6...but not HP. That would be a plum dumb swap. Maybe a bored out 302...but still more effort than worth.
