a bore of .030 isnt going to give you anything hp wise. youd be better ff going with a big bore kit or stroking it. boring a 4.6 to .030 is only to clean up the cylinder walls

Is it possible to turn your 4.6 into a 5.0 litre? For the pirice would it be worth it? Wihtout doing a engine swap? Whats the most you can get out of your stock 4.6 engine? its a SOHC 2002.
