New Ford F250 V8 5.4L, 3V gas????

[4day!!]

I know there is a towing forum for this but I need some advice quick...
anyone know the word on the new engine available in the '05 F250. It's a V8 5.4L,3 valves per cylinder gas engine. the towing capabilities lok pretty good (high rpm though for their hp and trq. claims). Withe 4.10 it is rated at 11,500 lbs towing. My boat and trailer are about 6,500 lbs. Is this a new engine to the F250?? I heard it is based on the mustang engine. Just cant justify the 6.0 PSD. the boat only gets towed about 40 miles to the lake. Althoguh it would be nice to be able to tow to powell or bring the boat home(300 miles). I know i could justify the mpg w/ the PSD. Any feed back yet on the new V8???? Obviously i would put an exhaust. intake and chip /programmer in it..
