I had a 460V8 mated to an E4OD for 12 years, and I had only two gripes with it: 1) the V10 has a lot more power, and with the improved transmission it rides a lot smoother, and 2) the #8 cylinder spit out the exhaust manifold bolt caps twice. The manifold warped enough to break the bolts, or in some cases (not to me, thank goodness)to crack heads.
Ford has had plenty of time since 1997 to improve the 460 design. Remember the early V10s had teething troubles of their own. Let's see what they came up with.
