    The motor itself is the same.The front cover,oil pan,intake manifold and exhaust manifolds are different from truck to car. Generally 392CI is the max stroke on a 5.7 with a few extreme examples going 400+ ci. The 400+ motors will need to have the blocks sonic checked to make sure there is enough wall thickness in the cylinder wall to take a larger bore.
