it should be fine, the 5.0 doesnt have that much more HP then your running now. i believe they are around 250 HP or so, like i said in the other thread, it will hold up, put some gears and a t-loc in. or you could swap in an 8.8 but no need if your going to keep the motor stock

you wont. unless your going to be modding the 5.0 the 7.5 should be fine. if your really worried about it then just find a 8.8 in a junkyaed from a GT, its will bolt right up

i believe with the 5.0 you will need a different tranny. i read somewhere that the belhousing is different and something elso too, so you would need a new tranny i believe
