Can't recall which State you were in but here in Victoria regardless of motor I understand you have to now run through an emissions test.

Would make even a AU 5L a cheap option if the Ford donk is your preferance.

I was always one for a Ford donk but then my timing allowed me to fit an AU 5L using it's own emissions compliance to pass.

If I'd only the 5.4L Ford option back then I too would probably have looked seriously at the Chev options.

Matter of personal choice.

Cheers
