Questions about Cobra Jet 5.0

It is kind of obvious by now that Ford submits specs that are different from production car stuff for a reason.
My guess is that they do that intentionally because they not want racers to use production car parts, but rather that they u$e their "Ford Racing" specialized part$.
Kind of a slick marketing move tho.

I still like the 2010 4.6L 3V CJ engine rated @ 232 hp.....what a ringer of an engine combo......LOL (CNC ported heads, large T.B., big cams, etc.) and "only" 232 hp ???

If I was going to build a naturally asperated CJ, that would be my choice.
