I doubting it but just cerious...I basically have done everything i can get for gains, and i want more, but i dont have funs for building the block quite yet.

Yes, all stock bottom end(It has a forged crank, the 5.4 DOHC motors have a forged crank but regular powdered metal rods and pistons, same as the Lightnings have) with a D1SC 3-core intercooled Pro-charger at 10# of boost. The DOHC heads REALLY LOVE boost and respond very well to it! The internals on any of our truck motors hold up pretty good with boost as long as you have a good(safe) tune. I ran the 4.6 engine at 12# and a good tune for almost a year with no problem and that motor has no forged internals.
It is a super charger system for a 4.6 2v so I fabbed a plate to bolt it to the 32v motor, here's a pic....
