I assume there would need to be some internal reinforcement, but do we know how strong the block is?<ul><li><a href="http://www.034motorsport.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_64&products_id=266"> 034 manifolds</a></li></ul>

4.2's have forged steel cranks, and (IIRC) 4-bolt mains. So they're relatively strong.
However, I have a feeling that those manifolds are made for 32-valve engines (since they say they fit 3.6's as well.) I'm not sure if they would fit a 40-valve engine..
